Addressing the
American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC) policy
conference on March 2, Vice President
Mike Pence proudly proclaimed “It is the position of the United States government that anti-Zionism is anti-Semitism.” The line received thunderous applause.
A plurality of
Americans disagree. 47.7 percent do not equate anti-Zionism
with anti-Semitism while 30 percent do.
Written responses (22.3 percent) to the poll were mostly “I don’t know” (6.4 percent) or equivalents (2.2 percent), as respondents grappled and responded to the question with other answers.
Question: “VP Mike Pence proclaimed, ‘anti-Zionism
is Antisemitism.’ Zionism is a political movement supporting
a Jewish state while Antisemitism is a form of bigotry
against Jews.”
