Young Americans have always been anti-war. The boomers were not pro VietCong, and Gen X was not pro Saddam Hussein. Zoomers are not pro Hamas. All were/are against war.

- flerchin 3y agoMisses the point. "Why do young Americans support Hamas?" They don't. I understand that it's easier for you to whatabout a hundred other things than deal with the nuances of an antiwar position.
- invalidname 3y agoSkipped the fact that I asked are they against Ukraine fighting for its freedom? I think this is about Israel and its admittedly terrible policies in the west bank. I don't think this is about war in general since US soldiers aren't involved in any significant way.
