This is one dimension. Another is Dem/Rep.

Most American voters in almost every demo see the Israeli people favourably. Per your source, a majority of 18 to 49-year olds leaning Democrat see Palestinians favourably. But even in those demos, 42 to 56% see the Israeli people favourably, too. Outside those demos, the advantage to Israelis is significant enough to drown that partisan youthful signal everywhere but in local primaries where there are large numbers of young Democrats. (Support for Israelis is dropping. But support for Palestinians is lower.) The dimension that doesn’t get attention is that most Americans don’t care about foreign policy. They may have views. But they won’t vote on them.
