“@W_A_Stuart1290 That one only polled Jews involved in Zionist communal institutions, and the numbers have since declined”
Biased Sample Smear
How They Deceive You
Propaganda
The tweet fabricates a decline in American Jewish support for Israel contradicted by subsequent polls showing stable high attachment, while mischaracterizing the JPPI sample as exclusively from 'Zionist communal institutions' rather than more communally engaged Jews.
Main Device
Biased Sample Smear
Dismisses a legitimate poll by falsely portraying its sample of communally connected American Jews as an exclusively Zionist cabal, implying rigged results to undermine pro-Israel data.
Archetype
Anti-Zionist propagandist
Max Blumenthal, editor of The Grayzone, routinely frames Israel as genocidal while amplifying unverified pro-Palestinian claims and erasing evidence of Jewish support for Israel.
Max's tweet is pure propaganda, straight-up fabricating a decline in American Jewish support for Israel that doesn't exist, while smearing a legit JPPI poll as rigged by some "Zionist communal institutions" cabal. First off, that "numbers have since declined" line? Total invention. JPPI's own 2026 poll had ~82% feeling connected to Israel, and follow-ups like AJC 2024/2025 show 80%+ calling Israel essential or important to them as Jews. Washington Post 2025? 75% say Israel's existence is vital to the Jewish future. No polls back his "decline"—he's just making it up to push an anti-Israel mirage. Then he trashes the JPPI sample as "only" Jews from Zionist institutions, implying it's a biased echo chamber. Wrong. It's a self-selected panel of more communally engaged American Jews—fewer intermarried, stronger Israel ties, matching denominational breakdowns—and JPPI openly says it's *not* representative of all U.S. Jews. Critics like Jewish Currents point out the engagement skew, but nobody calls it an exclusive Zionist plot. Max twists a half-truth into total dismissal so high support numbers (70%+ favorable views) vanish. This is classic from Max Blumenthal—Grayzone editor who brands Israel a "genocidal apartheid state." He erases durable 80%+ attachment from Pew, AJC, and others to pretend Zionism's dying among Jews. Don't buy it; the data shows the opposite.
