Europe no longer wants Israel: 7 countries surveyed, 7 rejections. 69% of Spaniards, 61% of Italians, 57% of French…
A YouGov poll reveals that the majority of Europeans reject Israel, with record levels of disapproval. After months of bombing Gaza, targeted hospitals and civilians slaughtered on camera, Israel’s image is down.
In a historic turnaround, European public opinion is now massively opposed to Israel.
The results of the latest YouGov / Eurotrack poll (February 2025) are indisputable: the majority of citizens questioned in seven major European nations judge Israel unfavorably, in some cases to near-record levels.
The poll, carried out in February by an international opinion research company, is being widely circulated after statements by leaders. A little behind the people of their countries, on Monday May 19, French President Emmanuel Macron and British and Canadian Prime Ministers Keir Starmer and Mark Carney warned in a joint statement that they would “not stand idly by” in the face of the “outrageous actions” of Benyamin Netanyahu’s Israeli government in Gaza.
Israel at a low ebb in European opinion
It’s hard to play the eternal victim card when bombs are raining down live on Gaza and hospitals are turning into morgues. Israel’s bombardment of an imprisoned population is attracting growing international disapproval, particularly in Europe. According to this poll, here are the percentages of people with an unfavorable image of Israel:
- Spain: 69 %
- Denmark : 68 %
- Sweden : 68 %
- UK : 60 %
- France : 57 %
- Germany : 59 %
- Italy : 61 %
In all cases, favorable opinions stagnate at a meager 12% to 22%. Even in Germany, historically inclined to support Israel, the image is in free fall.
Streaming genocide: the networks are unforgiving
The war in Gaza was not only bloody, it was also filmed, tweeted and livestreamed. In real time, millions of Internet users saw children die, entire families wiped off the map, hospitals bombed. And in this digital age, where every image becomes proof, state propaganda no longer carries much weight in the face of a video of a bloodied infant.
As a result, world opinion is turning, as recent American polls also show. For the first time, 53% of Americans have an unfavorable image of Israel, a meteoric rise of 11 points in three years. Even Hollywood is beginning to wonder whether the “world’s most moral army” deserves to have its script rewritten.
The chosen people… disowned
For decades, Israel has draped itself in the toga of divine and historical legitimacy: “chosen people”, “light of the nations”, “only democracy in the Middle East”. But by waging war on a population under blockade, this light seems to have faded in European hearts. The public, for their part, are no longer buying the rhetoric served up by pro-Israeli lobbies. They see. They judge. They condemn.
A major geopolitical turning point
This popular disenchantment is not just a mood swing. It is a historic turning point. European leaders will soon have to answer to their voters. No more automatic solidarity. No more votes of alignment at the UN. No more unconditional cheques.
What this poll reveals is one simple thing: the façade is crumbling. The “Jewish state” is no longer untouchable. It is now judged for what it does, not for what it claims to be. And this judgment, in Europe as in the United States, is becoming severe, sharp, implacable.
Perhaps history will remember that the first genocide to be broadcast live was also the one that precipitated the moral downfall of a regime.
