Poll: 3 in 10 Americans Believe Israel Committed Genocide in Gaza
CrossFireArabia- July 9, 2026
Nearly three years into Israel’s genocidal war on Palestine’s Gaza, only one-fifth of US adults believe Israel has not committed genocide against Palestinians, according to a new AP-NORC poll.
About three in 10 Americans say it has, while roughly half say they do not know enough to say. Among Jewish Americans, 30% believe Israel has committed genocide, while 49% disagree. The poll also highlights a sharp partisan divide, with 52% of Democrats describing Israel’s actions in Gaza as genocide, compared with just 13% of Republicans.
Since October 2023, Israel’s military attacks on the Palestinian enclave have killed more than 73,000 Palestinians, according to the Gaza Health Ministry, with more than 1,000 killed since the October 2025 ceasefire deal took effect according to TRTworld.
