The number of respondents age 18-29 who answered that the US’s relationship with Israel is a “major net negative” spiked from 9.3% to 24.6% over a mere year and a half.
Support for providing economic, material, and diplomatic aid to Israel in its ongoing conflicts plummeted by over a half from 37.7% to 18.1% among respondents age 18-29. Even more young Republicans now oppose such aid than support it.
Those who support direct intervention on behalf of Israel with airstrikes are outnumbered by those who oppose airstrikes. Support for intervention with troops on the ground is almost non-existent.
43.5% of respondents age 18-29 said they would oppose a draft through peaceful protest and 22.5% through non-violent civil disobedience, up from 25.7% and 16.9% in January, 2024.
The 17.3% of respondents who generally see foreign intervention as a net positive for the American people are decisively outnumbered by the 55.6% who see it as a net negative.

In January 2024, the Homeland Institute ran a poll on non-interventionism and related topics in response to the Gaza crisis. To track how public opinion is evolving and in response to the 12 Day Iran-Israel War in mid-June, 2025, we ran another poll on non-interventionism.
We polled 847 respondents who are politically and demographically representative of white, non-Hispanic American registered voters from June 27 to July 8, 2025, and our margin of error was plus or minus 3%.
