Americans favor continued support for Israel but still sour on Biden's performance overall: POLL_我的网站

一 |     A plurality of Americans back what the United States is doing to support Israel in the war against the Islamic militant group Hamas and an additional 29% think the country should be doing even more.Still, a majority of the public also disapproves of President Joe Biden's handling of the conflict as well as a range of other issues, according to a new ABC News/Ipsos poll, a warning sign for him as he launches his bid for reelection.At least 1,300 people have died and 3,227 others have been injured in Israel after Hamas launched a devastating, gruesome attack from several fronts on Oct. 7, Israeli authorities said. Militants entered homes, killed families and took more than 100 captives back to Gaza, including women, children and the elderly. They also gunned down hundreds celebrating at an Israeli music festival.In Gaza, at least 2,215 people, including 724 children, have been killed as Israel has launched retaliatory strikes and other operations, with an estimated 8,744 more injured and those numbers expected to climb -- and tens of thousands more displaced, according to the Palestinian Ministry of Health.According to a U.N. statement on Saturday, almost 1 million people have been displaced in Gaza.Following Hamas' attack, Israel also cut off Gaza's access to electricity and water supplies -- a move that will not be reversed until scores of hostages are returned home, said Israeli Energy Minister Israel Katz. Members of the Israeli special forces entered Gaza on Friday in efforts to locate and free hostages, according to an Israel Defense Forces (IDF) spokesperson. Officials in Israel say they have alerted 120 families that their loved ones are located in Gaza.Forty-nine percent of Americans say the United States is doing "about the right amount" to support Israel in its war with Hamas, while 29% say the U.S. is actually doing too little, per the latest ABC News/Ipsos poll conducted using Ipsos' KnowledgePanel.Only 18% say the U.S. is doing "too much" in the aftermath of the attacks. Republicans are much more likely to say the U.S. is doing too little to support Israel. Fifty percent of Republicans say this compared to only 12% of Democrats and 26% of independents. Most Democrats (65%) and independents (52%) think the U.S. is doing the right amount to help.These views differ from another major international conflict going on now, Ukraine's war with Russia. In this case, one in three Americans say the U.S. is doing too much to support Ukraine. A plurality (42%) says the U.S. is doing "about the right amount," while 22% believe too little is being done. On this issue, Republicans are more likely to say the U.S. is doing too much. A plurality of Republicans (44%) feels this way, compared to only 15% of Democrats and 34% of independents. Most Democrats, 57%, say the U.S. is doing "about the right amount" to help Ukraine compared to 35% of Republicans and 40% of independents.On Friday, the IDF called for all residents of Gaza to evacuate their homes and "move south for their protection" to an area south of the Gaza River. Yet that suggestion has been met with staunch humanitarian opposition. The U.N.'s Secretary-General António Guterres told reporters that same day that the push to evacuate was "extremely dangerous and, in some cases, simply not possible."A similar appraisal has been made by the World Health Organization, which said a mass evacuation "would be disastrous for patients, health workers and other civilians left behind or caught in the mass movement."The White House and senior Biden administration officials have continued to offer unequivocal support of Israel in the wake of Hamas' attack. During an economic address in Philadelphia Friday, Biden reiterated that support while also addressing the ongoing humanitarian crisis within the Gaza Strip."At my direction, our teams are working in the region including communicating directly with the governments of Israel, Egypt, Jordan, and other Arab nations and the United Nations to surge support and humanitarian consequences for Hamas' attack to help Israel," Biden said.He continued, "We can't lose sight of the fact that the overwhelming majority of Palestinians had nothing to do with Hamas and Hamas's appalling attacks. And they're suffering as a result as well."Despite the country's desire for the current level or increased support for Israel, in line with Biden's stance, a majority, 54%, disapprove of his handling of the conflict between Israel and Hamas. A little more than two in five Americans (41%) approve of the president's handling of the issue.According to a State Department spokesperson on Saturday, 29 Americans have been confirmed dead in Israel. Additionally, 15 U.S. citizens and one lawful permanent resident of the U.S. are still unaccounted for, the spokesperson said. Biden addressed the ongoing struggle of their loved ones in his remarks as well.A slight majority (53%) of Americans say the U.S. has a responsibility to protect Israeli civilians, per the new ABC News/Ipsos poll. Conversely, 54% say the U.S. does not have a responsibility to protect Palestinian civilians. An even larger majority (63%) say it's not the U.S.' responsibility to work toward Palestinian statehood. Half the country (50%) believes the U.S. does not have a responsibility to ensure peace in the Middle East, while 46% says it does.When asked which political party they trust to do a better job handling the war, Americans are generally split: 24% say the Democrats, 26% say the Republicans, 12% say both parties equally and 37% say neither party.That fracture is perhaps due in part to both party's internal divisions -- as progressive Democrats levy criticism of Israel's government and call for the protection of Palestinians while pleading with the Biden administration to establish a humanitarian channel in the region as Israel's attacks escalate.On the campaign trail, Republican candidates are taking aim at former President Donald Trump's recent remarks that the Lebanese militant group Hezbollah is "very smart" while warning of its threat to Israel and knocking top Israeli officials in the process. Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis, for example, told New Hampshire voters he would not be "throwing verbal grenades at the Israeli leadership" unlike Trump. His former vice president, Mike Pence, also in New Hampshire, lambasted Trump, adding that Hezbollah "aren't smart, they're evil." On CNN, former New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie called the former president "a fool."In the wake of the backlash, Trump released a statement saying "there was no better friend or ally of Israel" than he was.Meanwhile, Republicans on Capitol Hill are voicing increasing frustrations for their inability to offer aid, mostly due to the grievances of a small group of House Republicans leaving the body without a speaker.Heading into a presidential election year, Biden will have to battle low confidence in his leadership across a number of issues. A majority of Americans continue to disapprove of his handling of the economy, crime, climate change, inflation, gun violence, the situation with Russia and Ukraine and immigration across the U.S.-Mexico border. Approval of Biden's handling of crime and climate change has declined since the January ABC News/Ipsos poll.METHODOLOGY – This ABC News/Ipsos poll was conducted using Ipsos Public Affairs' KnowledgePanel® October 13-14, 2023, in English and Spanish, among a random national sample of 518 U.S. adults. Results have a margin of sampling error of 4.5 points, including the design effect. Partisan divisions are 25-25-42 percent, Democrats-Republicans-independents.

二 | 凭借对远程办公趋势的敏锐洞察，她于2019年初创立Deel，迅速崛起。                   不知不觉间，90后正以技术为刃，以全球为疆，站到了舞台中央。                   东北女孩                    缔造一个超级独角兽                    1990年，王硕出生于辽宁沈阳。她曾回忆自己的成长经历——家里经营摩托车出口生意，16岁那年随母亲到海外。白天上课，晚上她常开着叉车帮忙搬运车辆，每到周末还去跳蚤市场卖滑板车。                   这段经历，埋下了她日后创业的种子——不是空谈模式，而是直面真实世界的运行逻辑。                   后来，王硕考入麻省理工学院，主修机械工程专业并继续攻读硕士学位。然而，读研一年后，她决定退学，原因是在校课程无法满足对实践和创新的渴望。                   2015年，她回到北京与同学创立了Aeris，担任联合创始人兼首席技术官，公司主营业务是空气净化器。六年后，该公司以1亿美元价格，卖给了另一家机器人公司iRobot。

三 |                    不过，王硕早于2018年底就离开了Aeris，决心再度创业。

四 | 彼时远程办公尚属小众趋势，但她却敏锐地捕捉到了全球化用工背后的巨大痛点。                   “有两个信号让我确信变革即将到来。”王硕曾在一次访谈中回忆，“一是回国后看到支付宝、微信支付的地推速度令人惊叹，而海外支付仍是痛点；二是发现跨国大公司已开始尝试混合办公，协作工具层出不穷，跨国发薪、合规雇佣依然极其复杂。”                    于是，她与麻省理工校友Alex Bouaziz联手，在2019年正式推出Deel——一个旨在简化全球雇佣流程的SaaS平台。                   最初的模式很简单，从基础的“跨币种薪酬支付”入手，Deel推出线上支付平台。目标很明确：让一家纽约公司能像给本地员工发工资一样，轻松支付一名新加坡设计师的薪水。                   王硕也走过弯路。起初，她们打算从自由职业者的C端用户角度切入，结果并不如人意，甚至一度要帮人讨薪，连1万美元都赚不到。很快公司转向ToB领域，王硕花了六周时间采访了200多家公司，重新设计产品，主打跨国支付及本地化合同。这一招果然奏效，Deel迅速收获了一大批企业用户。                   简而言之，传统的跨国招聘与薪酬支付，往往需要企业在不同国家分别对接本地服务商，导致跨地域薪资管理、核算困难。即便如ADP、SAP等大型服务商，其后端仍依赖第三方外包网络。Deel将这种碎片化的人工操作业务整合为自动化软件，并一站式解决远程入职、资料填报、合规申请、纳税等问题，无需企业再花费大量精力去研究各地复杂的法规政策。

五 |                    一切都关乎机遇。突如其来的疫情，让远程办公需求开始爆发。Deel抓住了机会，业务量出现爆发式增长。                   “Deel的速度成为持续不断的动力，能在今天完成的事绝不拖到明天。”王硕称成立第一天就放眼全球，早早布局亚太、拉美等地区——当市场开始转变时，才能非常迅速地重新预测并做出调整。

六 |                    从2020年到2021年，公司年营收从400万美元狂飙至5400万美元，足足翻了13倍。到了2023年，营收突破5亿美元大关，成为有史以来增长速度最快的SaaS企业之一。如今，Deel每年为150个国家的37000名企业客户处理220亿美元薪酬。到了今年初，公司年度经常性收入已超过10亿美元。                   有人说，特殊时期造就了如今的Deel。

七 | 但还是那句老话，机会永远留给有准备的人。                   估值1200亿元                    身后VC/PE云集                    至今，Deel背后集结起一支长长的投资人队伍。                   早在2019年成立之时，Y Combinator就以210万美元的估值向Deel投资了15万美元。同年，Deel完成385万美元种子轮融资，投资方包括Weekend Fund、Soma Capital、Quiet Capital、硅谷传奇投资人Elad Gil、Avichal Garg等。                   此后数年，Deel几乎保持着每年至少一次的融资频率。2020年，Deel接连宣布完成A16z领投的1400万美元A轮融资，以及Spark Capital领投的3000万美元B轮融资，此时估值为6000万美元。                   A16Z合伙人Anish Acharya回忆第一次接触Deel时，公司只有十个人，却心怀宏大理想。

八 | “如今，王硕和她的联合创始人仍在持续实践，让Deel成为全球工作的基础设施。他们的产品速度和对人工智能的早期投入，更易于世界各地的客户使用和接受。”                    次年4月，Deel宣布完成1.56亿美元的C轮融资，由YC领投，现有投资者A16Z和Spark Capital参投。Uber首席执行官Dara Khosrowshahi、梦工厂创始人Jeffrey Katzenberg、前亚马逊高管Jeff Wilke等人也参与了此轮融资。                   至此，这家成立三年的公司以12.5亿美元的估值跻身独角兽行列。                   紧接着，Deel宣布已完成4.25亿美元D轮融资，公司估值达到55亿美元。本轮融资由Coatue领投，此外，Altimeter Capital、A16Z、YC、Spark Capital、Greenbay Ventures、Neo等30余家投资方也参与了本轮融资。

九 |                    上一轮融资于2022年进行，金额为5000万美元，估值高达120亿美元。

十 | 该轮融资由苹果创始人史蒂夫·乔布斯的遗孀创立的Emerson Fund领投。

十一 |                    最新一幕，Deel最近宣布获得Ribbit Capital、Coatue和A16Z参投的3亿美元E轮融资，公司估值升至173亿美元。                   “自从Deel创立以来，我们就在持续关注。”Ribbit创始人Micky Malka表示。“如此复杂的领域内，很难找到有哪个公司能在五年内达到这样的规模，公司收入体现了服务价值。”                    今年6月，《新财富》杂志榜单显示，35岁的王硕凭借86亿元身家位列中国90后富豪榜。“我们才刚刚开始。”王硕在Deel官网写道，“尽管已经走了一段旅程，但每个里程碑、每位新客户都在提醒我们，未来还有很长的路要走。”                    中国90后，杀向全球                    透过王硕，可以看出来自新一代创业者，正以势不可挡的姿态席卷全球。放眼国内，全球视野加上技术创新，成为90后创业的关键词。                   这里不得不提及影石创新刘靖康。今年6月，影石创新正式登陆A股，刘靖康成为科创板最年轻敲钟的创始人。随后公司股价几经波动，市值一度突破1400亿元。截至目前，影石创新市值仍超千亿元。                   值得一提的是，刘靖康决定做智能硬件第一天起，影石就把目光放到全球，境外销售占比一度达80%，俨然成为“中国智造”另一张名片。                   宇树科技身后，也是一位90后。本科毕业于浙江理工大学、硕士毕业于上海大学的王兴兴，从小就擅长于搞各种小发明。在大学期间，19岁的王兴兴做出人生第一台机器人。而当年拿到第一笔投资时，他也才26岁。

十二 | 他所创立的宇树科技，至今集结了一支长长的投资人队伍。                   还有智元机器人，背后同样站着另一位90后——坐拥270万粉丝的B站up主稚晖君彭志辉。

十三 | 他本硕毕业于电子科技大学，曾入选华为的“天才少年计划”。直至2022年底，他官宣离开华为，去追求自己梦想和热爱的事业，投身机器人创业。                   放眼望去，这样的面孔还有很多：月之暗面杨植麟、云鲸智能张峻彬、银河通用王鹤、面壁智能曾国洋、Meshy胡渊鸣……他们面容尚显青涩，却凭借着知识和技术，白手起家创立令人惊叹的公司。

十四 |                    正如基石资本董事长张维总结：“他们成长在一个经济起飞、拥抱世界的年代，更有自信，更有全球观，更有创造力、叛逆精神和挑战精神。

十五 | 他们雄心勃勃，想要改变世界，怀抱宏大的梦想，要做出伟大的产品。”                    如果说，上一代创业者擅长于跑业务做销售，那么眼前这一群年轻创始人则更专注于技术。他们无疑是幸运的，踩着技术爆发的风口成长迅速。                   追日逐星，手摘星辰。属于90后的全球征途，才刚刚开始。
