I’m gonna go ahead and self-flair this as a restricted post, but I think the hard polling data from Pew Research is really interesting here.
Some of the most interesting data I found in this is the fact that not a single country polled, outside of India,Kenya, and Nigeria, have a net positive opinion of Israel in 2025. Contrasting this with earlier polling I could scrape together online, this is a huge drop from even a few years ago.
The other most interesting part is the extent of how few people have a positive opinion at all. Japan and Poland of all countries even have a lower percent of people with a positive opinion than *Indonesia* which is crazy.
All of this, as you can imagine, is tightly paired with extremely low approval ratings of Netanyahu.
I’ll attach all of the polls for the lazy below.

Puzzling. Couldn’t have happened to a nicer country.

Not surprising. I would bet that the numbers started plummeting around 6 months mark of the Gazan incursion.
