Most American Jews disapprove of US military action against Iran, new poll shows
The poll found 55% oppose U.S. military action against Iran, while 32% support it and 13% remain undecided, according to JEI.
- On Monday, the Jewish Electorate Institute released a national survey of 800 registered Jewish voters finding 55 percent disapprove of President Donald Trump's military action against Iran, while 32 percent approve.
- The survey reveals sharp partisan and denominational divides, as 83 percent of Orthodox Jews approve of the conflict, while 67 percent of Reform Jews disapprove of the military action.
- Nearly three-quarters of respondents said Trump should have sought congressional authorization before initiating hostilities, while a significant minority described themselves as "torn" regarding Iran as a threat but questioning the approach.
- A 60 percent majority of voters expect the war to be a primary topic at Passover seders this year, as roughly 54 percent expressed concern regarding the conflict's long-term impact on American foreign policy.
- Critics argue the poll reflects a narrow slice of the community, as JEI faces accusations that its methodology mirrors political talking points rather than non-partisan analysis.
