I don't know the percentage for the American public - I only mentioned Israeli. Well, Noam did.

This poll is a bit dated and my guess is it would change towards the worlds opinion has these past several weeks
[What did you think of the analysis in that Guardian article I supplied?]

“Polling shows Americans feel slightly more sympathy toward Israel than Palestine,” explained Robert Collins, professor of Urban Studies and Public Policy at Dillard University in New Orleans. “But it’s not an overwhelming difference, and there are a lot of undecideds and people who are unsure.”

A poll conducted from November 25-27 by The Economist/YouGov shows 38% of Americans sympathizing with Israelis while 11% of respondents sided with Palestinians. Twenty-eight percent said they were equally sympathetic to both sides, while 23% said they weren’t sure. 

Although polls show Americans more likely to sympathize with Israel, a growing number of respondents to an NPR/PBS NewsHour/Marist poll said Israel’s response was “too much.” While only 26% believed that was the case on October 11, 38% believed that four weeks later when the question was asked again.


Not sure bout da VOA but their source is credible by my standards: The Economist/YouGov

It's a difficult issue fo sho Brook - perhaps, you could try and be a bit more even in your judgments:

This push against silence is coming from both sides of the debate, and it’s forcing some Americans to voice opinions that they might feel more comfortable not sharing.
