Study Finds That Israel Is The Most Disliked Country Worldwide

.

ER Editor: The study linked to just below makes for some interesting reading. No surprises that the French have the most negative attitudes of the western Europeans in terms of whether they believe their country is heading in the right direction (p.10 of PDF) or what their experience of ‘democracy’ is (what a joke this word has been revealed to be) in their own country (p.14).

Rankings of countries according to public perception of them can be found on p.51. The graphic of that is shown below. Israel does indeed rank last or 65th as the most disliked country. It would have been useful to see its ranking for earlier years.

Would totally agree with this and how couldn’t Israel 🇮🇱 be the most disliked after what Netanyahu has been doing over a long period of time.
You can’t commit genocide, starvation & start illegal wars and be respected 👎🤬👿 https://t.co/8sHslFek39

********

For the study, “Respondents were asked what their overall perception is of each of 132 countries and international organisations,” noting that the ranking “includes only the 68 countries and organisations that were evaluated by all 85 surveyed countries” and finding that “The country with the most negative global perception is Israel”.

Following the genocide in Gaza, wars in Iran, Lebanon and Syria, and increasing settler expansion in the West Bank, Israel has permanently tarnished its image around the world, leading it to be the most reviled country by the world’s population.

We are now experiencing ever increasing growing pains due to the large number of websites and projects we represent. So we have just installed donation buttons on our websites and ask that you consider this when you visit them. Nothing is too small. We thank you for all your support and your considerations … (TLB)
