A poll released Friday indicated that fewer than half of Americans support US President Donald Trump’s recognition of 'Jerusalem' (al-Quds) as Israel’s capital, with an even smaller number supporting moving the US embassy to the city from Tel Aviv.
On whether they approve of recognizing Jerusalem as Israel’s capital, 44 percent of respondents told CNN they back Trump’s decision, while 45% said they disapprove.
Only 36% said they support moving the US embassy in Israel from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem, as Trump said he would.
Friday’s CNN poll also asked whether the US should take sides in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, with two-thirds of Americans saying it should not.
For those who said the US should take sides, 24% said the US should back Israel, with only 2% saying it should side with the Palestinians.
