CNN Poll: Majority of Americans side with Israel in Gaza fighting

[DigitalDrifter]

As with most issues? Name them.

Second Amendment, illegal immigration, Obamacare, oil production, strong military, strong borders, welfare.

Most Americans by far supported expanded background checks.

Immigration:

Which comes closer to your view about how to handle undocumented immigrants who are now living in the U.S.? They should not be allowed to stay in this country legally. OR, There should be a way for them to stay in the country legally, if certain requirements are met."

Stay: 68%
Not stay: 30%

Which of the above are most liberals on? Conservatives? Which are in the majority?

Immigration

Liberals are much more likely to be against gun ownership than conservatives.
Liberals are also much more likely to be for open borders, and always argue against more border security.

 

[DigitalDrifter]

You people obviously didn't notice that in the poll:

By almost 4 to 1, Americans said that Israel has used TOO MUCH FORCE, as opposed to too little, in this case.

I think you'll find that more liberals than conservatives agree with that assessment,

which, contrary to the OP's nonsense, puts conservatives in the minority.

Meaningless. It's always easy to claim someone is using too much force when you aren't being shot at.

If you don't recall, Clinton bombed Serbia into the Stone Age when it refused to comply with his demands. I don't recall any of you liberal turds whining that he was using too much force.

OP says that liberals arent with the majority of Americans

Link says they use too much force

Nowe we are told the benefits of not being with the majority

Spin spin spin

Liberals make up 20%-25% of the population, they win elections when the idiots who they've addicted to government and are the bottom dwellers of the Dimocrat party, leave their couches long enough to vote.

OK, so are you arguing what every liberals position is?
or what a majority of liberals advocate?
or what it is more likely to be?

You can also say that conservatives "are more likely" to support public lynchings.

But that's pretty freakin' dishonest isn't it?

Tell us why liberals arent with the majority of Americans except they are and it doesnt matter what the majority says now.

If Isreal surrendered tomorrow within forty eight hours they would all be dead.

If all the Muslims surrendered there would be peace.

They're not. Both liberals and conservatives are a minority, but conservatives are the largest minority.

As far as Israel goes, libs are far more likely to take the Palestinian side, and Conservatives are more likely to take the Israeli side. This poll shows that Conservatives are more in line with the general population.

 

[ClosedCaption]

So let me get this straight...The OP made it seem like being against the majority was a bad thing until it was shown that a majority of people think Israel is being too heavy handed then majorities suddenly are no longer a good thing anymore contradicting the OP

 

[Peach]

As of this morning, Hamas, a pack of Islamic Lunatics, was still firing rockets into a sovereign state...and that sovereign state was still defending itself by attempting to take out the rocket launchers.

There has been a noticable tilt by Libero-Progresso-Socialists (Democrats) toward the Lunatic Muslims, and away from one of America's closest allies...I don't know why...but it is clear that when you get on the side of Lunatic Muslims, you are getting on thin ice.

You just can't trust a man who thinks that he will get to bed 72 virgins in Paradise...if, when he blows himself up, he takes some Americans with him.

US Senate Unanimously Passes Resolution Supporting Israeli Assault on Gaza........

More good news!

Huh ?

Forty-three percent of those questioned said Israel's using about the right amount of force, with 12% saying they're not using enough. Nearly four in 10 said Israel is using too much force in Gaza..

That doesn't look like 4 to 1 to me.

Israel has unilaterally ceased firing for humanitarian reasons, let's see Hamas do THAT.

 

[MACAULAY]

This thread has turned into a circle jerk...as most do after about the second page.

The Liberals on this board have turned it into a debate about what the article in the O.P actually says...and thus have dodged that which they don't want to discuss....which is that Liberals do in fact tend to side with the Muslims as against the Israelis.

And they can't say why...they can't explain why they are on the side of a whole culture who treats women like slaves and homosexuals worse...which thinks Infidels should be killed, and finds no worse Infidels than Americans., except Jews. And so they don't want to talk about it.

But, Liberals do prefer Muslims...everybody who follows politics can see it. They can't explain why...so they obfuscate.

Islam...Its Obama Cool...that's all they know.

There's been a lot of talk today about the # of soldiers that the Israeli's have lost, and the fact that Israel is not used to losing this many. If Israel does ceasefire, it will be perceived that they are doing so because they've gotten their nose bloodied.
This also now makes sense why Hamas did not agree to a ceasefire earlier. It seems they actually wanted this kind of fight, where it's more guerilla-like warfare, and where Israel loses it's massive technological advantage.

CNN Poll: Majority of Americans side with Israel in Gaza fighting

It's only normal. Hamas is categorized as a terrorist group. Supporting Hamas would be equivalent to supporting Al Qaeda. Most Americans do not support terrorism.

Some lowlifes here do, though.

What's even sadder is that some of them actually claim to be American VFWs.

 

[M.D. Rawlings]

As of this morning, Hamas, a pack of Islamic Lunatics, was still firing rockets into a sovereign state...and that sovereign state was still defending itself by attempting to take out the rocket launchers.

There has been a noticable tilt by Libero-Progresso-Socialists (Democrats) toward the Lunatic Muslims, and away from one of America's closest allies...I don't know why...but it is clear that when you get on the side of Lunatic Muslims, you are getting on thin ice.

Actually, the anti-Semitic strain of leftyism harkens back to the 60's. At first it was just a trickle, then a steady stream. Today it's a flood.

I must have made a sharp turn right, I support Israel(.)

Washington (CNN)*- A majority of Americans say Israel's military actions in Gaza are justified, with only four in 10 saying that Israel has used too much force, according to a new national poll.

But*a CNN/ORC International survey*conducted Friday through Sunday also indicates that favorable opinions of Israel have edged down since earlier this year.

The poll was released Monday, as the death toll in the current conflict soared.

Death toll mounts as U.S. pushes for cease-fire

Monday Palestinians officials reported more killed, bringing the death toll to around 550. It's unknown how many were militants, but the United Nations has estimated that 70% are civilians. Israel announced Monday that seven more of its soldiers were killed, bringing to 25 the number of Israeli soldiers who have died. Two Israeli civilians have also been killed.

According to the poll, 57% of the public said the Israeli actions against Hamas, the Palestinian organization that runs Gaza, are justified, with just over a third saying they are unjustified.

Forty-three percent of those questioned said Israel's using about the right amount of force, with 12% saying they're not using enough. Nearly four in 10 said Israel is using too much force in Gaza.

"Attitudes toward Israeli military action have been extremely stable over the years," said CNN Polling Director Keating Holland. "In 2012, an identical 57% thought that Israel's actions against Hamas in Gaza were justified. And in 2009, the number of Americans who felt that way was only a few points higher, at 63%."

"Support for U.S. military aid to Israel also remains fairly stable, with almost two-thirds of Americans saying that U.S. assistance to Israel should be increased or kept the same," Holland added.

The survey indicates that 38% have an unfavorable opinion of Israel, up 14 percentage points from February. Sixty percent said they have a favorable opinion of Israel, down from 72% in February. But that 60% favorable rating is three times higher than the 20% of Americans who have a positive view of the Palestinian Authority, the governing body that runs the West Bank.

If the bloodshed continues for a while, don't be surprised if some partisan bickering over the fighting in Gaza breaks out in the United States as the poll suggests a partisan divide.

Forty-five percent of Democrats questioned said that Israeli's military actions in Gaza are justified. That number jumps to 56% among independents and 73% among Republicans.

The poll was conducted for CNN by ORC International from July 18-20, with 1,012 adult Americans questioned by telephone. The survey's overall sampling error is plus or minus three percentage points.

My God in heaven! Why wouldn't they? One thing these Nazi Liberals had better get through their dumbass heads is this: The United States of America doesn't have a lot of friends left (thanks OBarry). We had better keep what few friends left close. I understand that Barry despises Israel. The American people KNOW that the communist-in-chief hates Israel.

The Israeli people understand that Barry's time is nearly over. They will remain OUR friends and we will remain THEIR friends - long after that fool in the White House is gone.

Frankly, were I Netanyahu, I would give Hamas an ultimatum. Fore one more rocket into Israel and we (Israel) will obliterate you. It really is just that simple. They are nor dealing with reasonable people in Hamas - they are dealing with terrorists. It's time to take their asses out. For good.
