Most Americans disapprove of how President Biden is handling the current conflict between Israel and Hamas, according to a new poll, as he calls for a humanitarian pause in Gaza.
Nearly two-thirds of Americans disapprove of how President Biden is handling the current war between Israel and Hamas, according to an Associated Press poll released Wednesday. As the war enters its second month, a staggering 63% of Americans say Biden is not doing enough to adequately manage the conflict, bring peace or limit civilian casualties, according to a new poll from The Associated Press-NORC Center for Public Affairs Research.
Among Democrats, 58% said they view Israel's counterattack as excessive. Overall, however, a majority said the response was reasonable, with 38% of Americans saying Israel's response has been about right, and 18% saying it has not gone far enough. Some claim the current conflict is too complicated to definitively take a side. 'It’s just so complicated,' said Carolyn Reyes, a 36-year-old Democrat in New York.
Nearly 2 in 3 people said Hamas has a lot of responsibility for the war with the others saying Israel bears responsibility. The poll shows Biden’s unsatisfactory statistic is slightly worse than his overall job approval, as 60% of U.S. adults disapprove of the way Biden is handling his job as president. Only 38% approve.
The AP poll of 1,239 adults was conducted Nov. 2-6, using a sample drawn from NORC’s probability-based AmeriSpeak Panel, designed to represent the U.S. population. The margin of sampling error for all respondents is plus or minus 3.9 percentage points. The Associated Press contributed to this report.
