      < The Associated Press-NORC Center for Public Affairs Research survey of 1,022 Jewish adults nationwide, conducted from June 11 through June 17, found that 44% of American Jews hold a favorable opinion of Zohran Mamdani, compared with 39% who view him unfavorably. By contrast, just 32% of respondents said they have a favorable opinion of Netanyahu, while 59% said they have a negative view of the longtime Israeli leader

      The poll suggests that Mamdani’s positions on Israel have not prevented him from maintaining a net-positive image among American Jews overall. >

      It doesn’t surprise me that among Jewish people the guy who wants you to ride the bus for free is more popular than Adolf Hitler

      that would be because american jewish people are american, and not loyal to a foreign state. just like most other americans. american catholics aren’t loyal to Italy just because there’s a historical connection to the religion

    4. Notably there are more Jews in NYC than in Tel Aviv. And more Jews in the US than Israel.

      I’m an American Jew and I am very proud of my mayor, he is doing very well and the amount of racism and Islamophobia against him is astounding

      Not a difficult feat. The guy has 30% approval rating in Israel. To expect him to have higher approval rating among American Jews would be folly

    7. Netanyahu isn’t that popular anywhere, regardless of demographic. Most Jewish people I know, including myself, do not support Israel’s current actions however do support the idea of Israel being a predominantly Jewish country.

      Actual good guy more popular than genocidal warmonger, who’d have thunk it?

    9. Not surprising. Most American Jews are liberals, Bibi is a conservative, and Bibi has a low approval rate in Israel.

      Since Israel is a parliamentary system he and his party dont need a high approval rating to form a governing coalition, just enough negotiation to get a parliamentary majority.

    10. It’d be nice if people internalized this & stopped being antisemitic assholes whenever Israel’s shitty behavior comes up.

      It’s almost like most American Jews are normal people and not far-right fascists like the powers that be make them out as.

      I have only limited anecdotal evidence, but none of the American Jews I’ve met have been pro ethnic purging or genocide, so that tracks.

      As a Jewish American, I think it’s fair for me to be supportive of Mamdani, but with my hand on the exit door. I’m a fair person that gives a fair shot. But I’m wary of the possibility of the rhetoric turning ugly.

      Jewish people and Muslims stand together in New York.
      I have friends in both „camps“. I know. Peace. Love. 💙

    15. No shit? Just because we’re worried the anti-Israel sentiment is all too often a gateway to antisemitism doesn’t mean we don’t still hate Bibi. 

      This is like if someone released the headline,  „Biden more popular than Clarence Thomas among African Americans.“
