I think its unfair to generalize "American Jews and Israelis" as the poll only included Americans, especially considering for many American Jews it might be a 'default' to support Israel's actions when they are not familiar with the extent of what happened. I think the numbers supporting and believing force was excessive is greater among Israeli Jews. Additionally I think the ADL's publication of statistics is perhaps biased. I find it disturbing that only 17% thought the attacks were excessive.
