Eric Dienstfrey | February 23, 2007
Additional analysis from thirteen recent Gallup national surveys of 12,061 adults including 303 Jewish Americans (conducted 2005 through 2007) finds:
- 77% of Jewish Americans think the U.S. "made a mistake in sending troops to Iraq;" 21% think it was not a mistake.
- 89% of Jewish Democrats oppose the war, while 78% of non-Jewish Democrats oppose the war.
- 65% of Jewish non-Democrats oppose the war, while 38% of non-Jewish non-Democrats oppose the war.
- Gallup's Jeffrey M. Jones writes, "Among the major religious groups in the United States, Jewish Americans are the most strongly opposed to the Iraq war."
