        Really seems to be no evidence to even support Jewish Americans are any more likely to support Israel than non-Jewish Americans

        Roughly 25% of American Jews overall and 40% of American Jews under 40 believe Israel is an apartheid state (and 13% of US Jews over 64). That lines up with a lot of polling on Israel for Americans as a whole. I’d extrapolate that to say if you looked at Jewish people under 30 or 25, it’d be a majority calling it apartheid. Also, 1 in 3 (back in 2021) Jewish people under 40 believed Israel is committing genocide against Palestinians

        From other polls I’ve looked at, I think you could reasonably assume Americans overall (and definitely Christians) would be equally if not less likely to call Israel is an apartheid state than Jewish people
