A CNN investigation reveals troubling statistics about Israeli men's views on sexual consent, highlighting a significant percentage that do not consider forcing sex on an acquaintance as rape.

The claim that a CNN investigation reveals troubling statistics about Israeli men’s views on sexual consent, specifically that a significant percentage do not consider forced sex on an acquaintance as rape, cannot be substantiated based on the provided sources. None of the listed references are from trusted or credible outlets directly linking CNN to such an investigation or presenting reliable data on Israeli men’s attitudes toward sexual consent. Most sources are unrelated, outdated, or lack verifiable evidence. The only remotely relevant source mentions an alleged 2011 Haaretz academic survey but is a non-credible, secondhand online query without direct data or confirmation. Given the absence of trustworthy, direct evidence and the lack of any recognized journalistic or academic corroboration, the claim appears unsubstantiated and likely false.
