A new survey shows majority of American, young Evangelicals believe “Christians should do more to love and care for the Palestinian people”

In generational shift, millennial evangelicals not as supportive of Israel (Haaretz)
A survey of 2,000 American Evangelical Christians has found generational differences among participants in positions on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, with older evangelicals offering more unconditional support of Israel than those under 35.

According to the survey, American evangelicals under 35 are less likely than their older counterparts to offer unquestionable support for Israel, and are more likely to hold positive views of the Palestinians.
