Just 23% Say Israel’s Actions in Gaza Are ‘Fully Justified’

A new CNN poll finds only 23% of Americans say Israel’s actions have been fully justified, a 27-point drop from a October 2023 poll taken shortly after Hamas’ October 7 attacks.

Another 27% now say those actions have been partially justified and 22% say that they have not been justified at all. In October 2023, just 8% said Israel’s actions were not justified at all.

This drop cuts across party lines but is far larger among Democrats and independents.
