A shocking poll revealed that most young Americans think Israel should cease to exist and be handed over to Hamas, the militant group that controls Gaza.

The Harvard-Harris poll, conducted this week, showed that 51% of Americans aged 18 to 24 supported the radical solution to the Israel-Palestinian conflict, which would entail the end of the Jewish state and its replacement by a Palestinian entity under Hamas rule.

Only 32% of the same age group favored a two-state solution, which would create an independent Palestinian state alongside Israel, and a mere 17% suggested that other Arab countries should take in the Palestinians.

This view was drastically different from the older generations, who overwhelmingly preferred a two-state solution. Only 4% of Americans aged 65 and above agreed that Israel should be ended.
