(Jerusalem Post) Nathan Guttman - U.S. Jews are strong supporters of Israel but usually tend to refrain from defending Israel publicly, according to a poll of 800 American Jews conducted by Frank Luntz for The Israel Project, a pro-Israel public advocacy group. 82% said they support Israel, with most characterizing themselves as strong supporters. Backing for Israel is stronger among older Jews, among those who belong to the Conservative movement, and among those who attended Jewish day schools and visited Israel. Only 29% said they talk about Israel frequently, while 61% almost never do so.
