The only thing Palestinians accomplished with this attack is burning what little goodwill they had.

Just think, if they'd allowed themselves to get genocided for another 3 decades, they might've been able to sway public opinion by 4%

You barely need to manufacture anything, many Americans don't actually truly believe anything. They'll automatically parrot whatever the latest thing the television told them was.

Americans are such fucking idiots, we should legitimately just take away the right to vote from all citizens if a third of us are going to respond with "about equal" to that question. The amount of unbridled stupidity it takes to look at that, think about it, and then say "about equal" is mind boggling.

"about equal"

"Actually, I DO have principles, and those principles are to have no principles. I'm very smart and nuanced."

If it helps, a little over a fourth said "not sure / no opinion" and the graph makers decided to just exclude that
