Most US Jews identify as Zionist

Despite political differences, the survey indicated a strong connection between American Jews and Israel. About 80% of respondents identified as “Zionist” or “slightly Zionist.” There was a significant generational divide, with 12% of those under 25 identifying as anti-Zionist compared to 7% in the 25-35 age group. Additionally, 87% of those under 25 identified as Zionist or slightly Zionist, while 78% of those aged 25-35 did the same.
