Among Democrats, support for Israel has cratered
What happened in 2015 to cause this decline among Democrats? Bibi Netanyahu's speech to Congress flaying Barack Obama's Iran treaty? Rising settler violence against Palestinians? Growing disillusionment over Israel's rightward drift?
Maybe growing up with the internet as a news source and seeing what's really going on in Israel, Gaza and the West Bank rather than being spoon-fed pro-Israel propaganda from US media and Christian Evangelicals?
Why has our Democratic leadership not responded?
Who’s the superpower around here?
Well, they are old and did grow up with the pro-Israel propaganda.
and, like it or not, in the US today it's not voters who get the policies they want, it's dollars that set the policy and there are a lot of dollars out there pushing the US to continue its pro-Israel stance.
