Democrats beware — Centrists support Israel
Other public opinion surveys show the vast majority of Americans support Israel in its war against Hamas, but if you follow the mainstream media, especially their coverage of mass anti-Israel protests, it sure looks as if the world is against us. Which view is correct?
According to Dan Backer, an attorney, lobbyist, and veteran campaign counsel based in Washington, D.C., Democrats would be making an election-losing mistake if they bow to their progressive, anti-Israel wing. Over the weekend, Real Clear Politics published an op-ed by Backer titled “Democrats Beware: Swing Voters Know Israel Is the Good Guy, and Hamas Is the Bad Guy.”
“The overwhelming majority of US swing voters recognize the current battle is one of good versus evil, knowing Hamas is to blame for the suffering on both sides,” Backer wrote.
Backer gets his numbers from a firm called Impact Social, a company with offices in Washington and London that tracks 60 million online blogs, forums, and news websites in 44 different languages, and employs a team of in-house human experts to read and analyze thousands of individual posts.
