Survey: 80 Percent of Jewish Americans Care about Israel
(JTA) Ben Sales - A survey of 4,700 Jewish Americans in 2020 was published Tuesday by the Pew Research Center. More than 80% say that caring about Israel is an important or essential part of being Jewish. Nearly half have been to Israel, and a quarter have been there more than once. The survey found that most Jews believe anti-Semitism in America has increased in recent years and said they feel less safe now than they once did. 51% have experienced anti-Semitism over the past 12 months.
