Majorities in most of the three dozen countries we’ve surveyed this year express an unfavorable view of Israel and little or no confidence in Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.

These findings come from a Pew Research Center survey conducted Feb. 8-May 13, 2026. Most interviews took place after the United States and Israel launched a military campaign in Iran on Feb. 28.

    If it weren’t for the fact that the Pakistani passport is useless as hell and the government is a vassal of the USA that has sold out practically every aspect of the country so they can spend IMF money to live abroad, this statement would probably hit harder

      Instead of seeing any support for Zionism as the massive red flag that a politician is compromised, most people on the “left” are still completely fine with some lip-service for Palestinians and both-sides nonsense. Really goes to show that only the resistance in Lebanon, Yemen and Iran and truly care about Palestinians being slaughtered and only they will act to prevent it from happening.

    Kinda surprised to see there are countries (Turkey and Pakistan) that hold a more unfavorable view of Israel than Palestine (or part of it — West Bank).

    Very surprised to see that Germany has a that unfavorable view of Israel. I thought they were way more favorable based on the news I was seeing about it.

    This perfectly fits some people’s doomsday death cult philosophies. “The nations of men” are supposed to unite against God’s chosen people or some shit like that. Religion really is the gift that keeps on giving, particularly the abrahamic faiths.
