The survey data also shows that in the strategic arena facing Tehran, the Israeli public does not have much hope in the naval blockade imposed by President Trump. According to the data, half of those surveyed (50%) believe that the blockade is failing to achieve the war goals of Israel and the US, while only 39% see it as an effective tool.
Despite doubts about the effectiveness of the blockade, the Israeli public is demonstrating extraordinary determination regarding the possibility of a frontal confrontation: an overwhelming majority of 82% respondents support Israel joining the US in an active war against Iran, should diplomatic efforts and negotiations fail.
Only 151% of the public opposes such a move.
On the Lebanese border, the public mood clearly leans toward a radical solution rather than partial arrangements. 76% of Israelis believe that the IDF should return to fighting in Lebanon until the goal of completely disarming Hezbollah is achieved, with only 21% of those surveyed preferring to avoid a return to heavy fighting on this front.
In the southern arena as well, the public position remained rigid in the face of Hamas's refusal to disarm. 78% of those surveyed called on Israel to return as soon as possible to the path of fighting and subduing the terrorist organization, and only 18% of the public opposed the resumption of fighting for the purpose of subduing it.,
The survey, with the participation of 958 adults from the general population, was conducted today, April 23, 2026. Data analysis: Shlomo Filber.
