These categories were coded based on respondents\u2019 self-identification as Jewish, Arab or something else, as well as their answers to a question asking which political party they feel closest to, if any. Jewish Israelis who indicated support for any party in the coalition were grouped together. Jewish Israelis who indicated support for a party in the opposition, did not indicate support for any political party, or who refused to identify with one were categorized as\u00a0<em>not<\/em>\u00a0supporting the government in power.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For the sake of our analysis, parties in Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu\u2019s governing coalition include Guardians of the Sephardim (Shas), Likud, Noam, Otzma Yehudit, the Religious Zionist Party and United Torah Judaism (Yahadut Ha\u2019tora).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>About Pew Research Center\u2019s Spring 2026 Global Attitudes Survey Results for the survey are based on face-to-face interviews conducted in Israel and the West Bank and East Jerusalem under the direction of Gallup.
