    Accurate97% confidence▶ 1:06
    “54% said they supported two states, a Jewish and a Palestinian state. 24% said they supported an equal binational state.”

    In a recent poll, 54% of American Jews supported a two-state solution and 24% supported an equal binational state.

    Misleading50% confidence▶ 1:20
    “And among American Jews under the age of 35, there were actually more who supported an equal binational state, which is the position I hold, than supported a Jewish state.”

    Among American Jews under 35, support for an equal binational state exceeded support for a Jewish-state option.

    Coverage of the poll reported that 51% of non-Orthodox Jews under 35 supported a binational state. Presenting this as applying to all American Jews under 35 omits a material subgroup restriction and creates a broader impression than the published result supports.

    Omits: The reported 51% figure was specifically for non-Orthodox Jews under 35, not all American Jews under 35; the speaker omits that denominator qualifier.

    Checked twice, independently: the first pass returned Accurate and the second Misleading. Recorded as Misleading.
