A new poll by the Hebrew University and the Agam Institute finds that 92% of Israelis believe Iran emerged as the winner from the war and its aftermath. The survey points to widespread public dissatisfaction with the war's outcome, despite significant military and diplomatic efforts, according to the pollsters.
A poll conducted by the Hebrew University of Jerusalem and the Agam Institute found that 92% of Israelis believe Iran was the overall winner of the war and the subsequent agreement with the United States. The survey, released Sunday evening, indicates a deepening sense of public dissatisfaction with the outcome, despite what the pollsters describe as significant military and diplomatic efforts invested throughout the campaign.
The finding marks a further erosion in public confidence in the war's results. As The Zioneer reported earlier this week, a Channel 12 poll on Thursday found that 84% of Israelis believed Israel had not won the war. A separate Israel Hayom survey the same day, with a similarity rating of 0.70 in our own records, found that 71% of Israelis do not trust President Trump to safeguard Israeli interests in the Iran deal. A CBS News poll released earlier Sunday found that 69% of Americans also said the financial investment in the Iran campaign was not worth it — a finding that our desk classified as SAME-THREAD to the current wave of polling.
The Hebrew University survey, with a much higher figure of 92%, captures an even bleaker public assessment. The poll did not break down responses by party affiliation or demographic, and the raw margin of error was not provided in the source. The trend across multiple survey organizations over the past week is consistent: Israelis increasingly view the war as a strategic failure, even as official statements from the IDF and government continue to frame the military campaign as a tactical success against Iranian nuclear and missile infrastructure.
