Israel boycott: 33% of Americans, 40% of Brits in favor, Israeli UN ambassador cries foul
![]()
A third of Americans and 40 percent of those in the UK support boycotting Israel according to a recent poll. The survey has rattled the Israeli ambassador to the UN, who says those favoring the boycott were helping to spread “an ideology of hate.”
The research was conducted by the market research firm Ipsos, which conducted the surveys in the US and the UK. The company was looking to identify attitudes in the two countries towards the movement of boycotting, divestment and sanctions (BDS), which is being implemented against Israel by certain sections of society who are angry at Israel’s unwillingness to discuss a two-state solution with Palestine.

Taking the pessimistic view- this means that two-thirds of Americans support racism and fascism or that they don't have access to independent news media.
