© AnadoluPalestinian sympathizer: Support for Israel is dwindling among America's 'Millennial Generation'
The demographic generation born in the period spanning the late 1980s to late 1990s is identified as the millennial generation, and they've been
blamed by older generations for everything from destroying the golf industry to killing the movie business; from bad manners to laziness; from ending marathon-running to ending civilization itself.
If the world sneezes, it's because a millennial threw pepper in your face, apparently.
Needless to say, Millennials have received a bad rap. Negative articles and social media memes about them serve as clickbait for blogs and magazines. When it comes to page views and advertising dollars, bashing Millennials is the gift that keeps on giving.
But while the media is busy disparaging twenty-somethings, like a disgruntled old-timer guarding his porch on a wooden rocking chair,
it's Millennials who hold the key to Palestinian liberation and human rights.A
study carried out by the Brand Israel Group, a group of former advertising professionals who promote Israel to American audiences, shows that while Israel enjoys a broad base of support among the US public,
it's rapidly losing support among Millennials."Shared values are the bedrock of our relationship, and young Americans do not believe Israel shares our values," says
Fern Oppenheim, one of the group's co-founders. "That's a huge issue.
We have to have a narrative about the heart and soul and humanity of the Israelis."
