By highlighting the attitudes of leaders, religious groups, movements, and various expressions in the media. By using qualitative methods, data obtained through library research and historical and discourse approaches to look deeply at symptoms and phenomena that have occurred and are likely to occur. This research reveals that public attitudes are influenced by religious identity, humanitarian values, and historical narratives disseminated through the media and religious organizations.

Religious leaders, Islamic organizations, and social media play an important role in shaping collective perceptions that tend to reject the normalization of relations with Israel. Indonesia's foreign policy towards Israel is based on the principles of anti-colonialism and solidarity with the Palestinian cause.
