Thirty-four percent of voters have a favorable opinion of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, while 42% of voters have an unfavorable opinion.
- The unfavorable number has reached a new high, up from 38% in August and 27% in 2023.
- The number viewing him favorably has not changed much, and is identical to the 2023 survey.
- Fifty-four percent (54%) of Republicans have a favorable view, compared to just 16% of Democrats.
Highlighting the difference between the world of politics and the vast majority of Americans, 40% of those who talk politics every day have a Very Favorable opinion of Netanyahu.
- This is nearly 30 points higher than any other measured group in that category.
But for all this, the number calling for Netanyahu's arrest if he visits the U.S. has fallen 9 points to 37%.
- Still, overall, the number saying he should not be arrested has only gone up 4 points, to 36%.
- Just 27% of the GOP now call for his arrest, compared to 40% when we asked in August.
- Nearly half (48%) of Democrats call for his arrest.
