The relentless sanitizing of Hamas in mainstream media is bearing fruit, with a shocking 21% of American voters now supporting the Iranian backed-terrorist organization over Israel, according to a new Harvard/Harris poll.
Young Americans have proven particularly receptive to the pro-Hamas narrative flooding social media feeds and news coverage. Support for Hamas peaks at 32% among voters aged 25-34, followed by 29% in the 35-44 bracket. Even younger voters aged 18-24 show a disturbing 21% support for Hamas. Less reckless minds prevail as the numbers show gradual decline with age, dropping to 23% for 45-54-year-olds, 17% for 55-64, and finally 10% among those over 65.
Among 19 ranked entities, Hamas ranks near the bottom alongside Russia and the Palestinian Authority, with Israel holding middle ground.
Politically speaking, Democrats lead with 25% backing Hamas, while 19% of Republicans and 20% of independents now support the organization behind the October 7 attacks. However, when it came to backing for a Gaza ceasefire, support reached 87% among Democrats, 81% among Republicans, and 78% among independents. A strong 57% of those surveyed believe Trump’s looming return to the White House just days beforehand spurred Hamas to finally strike a deal, while 43% say Biden’s diplomatic efforts made the difference.
Despite round-the-clock media coverage, just 2% cite the Israel-Hamas conflict as their top concern. The Harvard/Harris poll was taken between January 15-16 and surveyed 2,650 registered voters.
