A new survey reveals a growing disillusionment among Israelis as the war against Hamas grinds on in the Gaza Strip.

According to the Jewish People Policy Institute, a staggering 25% of Jewish Israelis and 40% of Arab Israelis would leave the country if given the opportunity. Furthermore, while the early months after October 7 saw high confidence in the IDF’s ability to defeat Hamas, by July that faith had dwindled significantly. Only 62% of right-wing Jewish Israelis believed victory was achievable, with centrists and left-wing respondents showing even less optimism at 30% and 16% respectively.

Perhaps most troubling is the plummeting trust in the IDF’s command command structure. A majority of Jewish survey participants (55%) reported low confidence in military leadership. This marks a sharp decline, particularly among right-wing supporters, where disapproval skyrocketed from 60% in June to a whopping 80% in July.

Israel’s government fares no better in the court of public opinion. Only 26% of respondents expressed trust in the current administration, with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s personal approval rating languishing at a mere 27%.

A separate Channel 12 poll paints an even bleaker picture for the embattled prime minister. A resounding 72% of Israelis believe Netanyahu should resign, with 44% calling for his immediate departure and 28% saying he should step down after the war. Even among those who said they supported the current government, 52% believe it’s time for Netanyahu to leave office early.
