Truth to Power

Majority of US, world say “Not our job” to Israel, Palestine

International Poll: Most Publics–including Americans–Oppose Taking Sides in Israeli-Palestinian Conflict

A new WorldPublicOpinion.org poll of 18 countries finds that in 14 of them people mostly say their government should not take sides in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. Just three countries favor taking the Palestinian side (Egypt, Iran, and Turkey) and one is divided (India). No country favors taking Israel’s side, including the United States, where 71 percent favor taking neither side.

Yet we pay billions upon billions in aid to them both, endanger our security, and ignore massive human rights violations- all for something most of us don’t care to be involved in.

A government for the people, yeah right.
