This is VERY bad news for Israel, as these Christians are the very core of their support:
Younger evangelicals’ “conceptions of justice and fairness, as it relates to the conflict, vary from that of their elders”, Bumin said.
The survey found nearly 45 percent of younger evangelical Christians are supportive of the establishment of a Palestinian state and a plurality of 42 percent support neither side in the conflict.
Bumin and Inbari’s analysis found that younger evangelicals’ views are less influenced by biblical beliefs that a second coming of Christ and the end times are near. Instead, if a young evangelical respondent believes Israel treats Palestinians unfairly, they are significantly less likely to express support for Israel.
If US support collapses, can Israel survive?
Without billions in aid from the US, and the US death grip on the United Nations, the world will be a far less hospitable place where Israel is concerned.
It would seem the clock is ticking down on the future of the theocratic apartheid state, at least as it is now constituted.
Can Israel become a more just and equitable nation, or is it destined to become a footnote in world history?
