Only 8 percent of people between the ages of 30-44 and 2 percent of people aged 45-64 agreed with the statement.
None of those over the age of 65 who were surveyed agreed with the statement and only 2 percent over 65 said they neither agreed nor disagreed.

The attack was followed by a spike in antisemitic incidents in the US and around the world.
