Poll Finds Wide Disapproval of Biden on Gaza

A new New York Times/Siena College poll finds voters broadly disapprove of the way President Biden is handling the bloody strife between Israelis and Palestinians, with younger Americans far more critical than older voters of both Israel’s conduct and of the administration’s response to the war in Gaza.

Key takeaway: “Nearly as many Americans want Israel to continue its military campaign as want it to stop now to avoid further civilian casualties. That split appears to leave the president with few politically palatable options.”
