A new Channel 12 poll finds that 84% of Israeli respondents believe Israel did not emerge victorious from the Iran campaign. Within that group, 43% said Israel lost, and 41% said the outcome was inconclusive. The survey captures a sharp public assessment of the war's result.
A new Channel 12 poll conducted on Thursday evening found that 84% of Israeli respondents do not believe Israel won the war against Iran. The breakdown: 43% said Israel lost, and 41% said the result was inconclusive — leaving only 16% who consider the campaign a victory. The survey comes amid a wave of analysis and commentary questioning the outcome of the US-Israeli military campaign against Iran and the subsequent diplomatic agreement. As The Zioneer reported, earlier polls showed similarly grim assessments: a Kantar survey from Tuesday found that 54% of Israelis now hold a negative view of President Trump, a sharp reversal from earlier strong support. The Channel 12 poll is a single-source survey broadcast with no additional methodological details; the 84% figure is a snapshot of public sentiment at a specific moment in a deeply contested debate.
