Do Israelis believe Iran has grown stronger from regional conflicts?

Question

Accepted Answer

Israelis Widely Believe Iran Has Grown Stronger Due to Regional Conflicts

A recent survey indicates a strong public consensus among Israelis that Iran has emerged more powerful from ongoing Middle East conflicts and a subsequent agreement with the United States. Conducted between June 17 and 20 among 3,644 respondents, the poll highlights a prevalent sentiment that the recent US-Iran agreement has primarily benefited Tehran.
Widespread Perception of Iranian Gains

The survey reveals that a significant majority of Israelis, 92.1%, believe Iran has either won or substantially benefited from the conflicts. This perception extends across the political spectrum, with even 93.1% of voters within Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's right-wing electoral base sharing this view. Consequently, 82.9% of participants believe that Israel's long-term security has diminished as a result of these developments.
Opposition to US-Iran Agreement and Skepticism Towards Leadership

Public opinion strongly opposes the agreement between the US and Iran, with 63.2% of respondents expressing their disapproval, while only 12.1% voiced support. This widespread opposition is mirrored by a deep skepticism regarding the government's handling of recent military operations. Approximately three-quarters of those surveyed, 72.5%, stated they do not believe Prime Minister Netanyahu's assertions about the success of these operations, and 56.4% characterized the management of these operations as either "failed" or "weak."
Declining Support for Netanyahu and Continued Support for Military Action

The survey also points to a decline in public confidence in Prime Minister Netanyahu's leadership, with support for his premiership falling from 40.5% in early March to 29.4% in June. Despite this erosion of confidence, a notable segment of the Israeli public continues to support assertive military action against Hezbollah in Lebanon. Nearly half of the respondents, 48.2%, indicated their support for a new, large-scale military operation against Hezbollah, even if it carried the risk of conflict with Washington. Only 21% of participants opposed such action.
