A recent survey conducted by Harvard-Harris reveals that 80% of registered voters in the United States believe that students and professors who advocate for violence against Jews should be suspended. The poll, which involved 1,961 participants and was conducted on April 24-25, coincided with widespread pro-Palestinian demonstrations on college campuses, where protesters called for the elimination of Israel and endorsed acts of terror against Israelis, including openly supporting Hamas.
In response to incidents of physical violence, such as assaults on journalists at protests like the one at UCLA, 83% of those polled agreed that participants should face suspension. The majority of respondents also expressed support for Israel in its conflict with Hamas, with 80% backing Israel and only 20% supporting Hamas. Additionally, 72% believe that Israel should proceed with an operation in Rafah to end the war with Hamas, while 28% feel that Israel should back off, despite opposition from the Biden administration.
The survey has a margin of error of 2%. Joel B. Pollak, Senior Editor-at-Large at Breitbart News, is the author of the e-book “The Zionist Conspiracy (and how to join it)” and “Neither Free nor Fair: The 2020 U.S. Presidential Election.” Follow him on Twitter at @joelpollak.
