The battle for public opinion in the West: A poll published in France reveals that more than 60 percent of the public in France expresses disgust with the Hamas terrorist organization, but only 37 percent declare that they support Israel.
A survey conducted this week by the French think tank IFOP dealt with the fighting in the Gaza Strip and the French public's attitudes toward it. The survey compared public support and disgust with the State of Israel, the Palestinian Authority and the Hamas terrorist organization. According to the data, 51 percent of the public expressed indifference to Israel, while only 12 percent expressed disgust with the state.

The Palestinian Authority received 20 percent support, 61 percent apathy, and 19 percent disgust among survey respondents. Hamas received 61 percent revulsion, 34 percent indifference, and only five percent support among respondents.
In addition, 72% of the respondents expressed concern that terrorist attacks similar to those carried out by Hamas near the Gaza Strip would be carried out by the organization's supporters in France. In addition, in an unprecedented manner, 62% expressed support for Israeli action aimed at dismantling Hamas in the Gaza Strip.
French President Emmanuel Macron visited Israel last week to express solidarity with Hamas' criminal attack. Israel is satisfied with France's support for Israel's position and its opposition to a ceasefire that would help Hamas. Macron met with President Isaac Herzog, who told him: "Hamas has committed terrible atrocities, Hezbollah and Iran are playing with fire."
