Poll shows surprising Israeli preference in upcoming US presidential race
Recent survey reveals unexpected Israeli public views about US leadership choices. Complex history between **Benjamin Netanyahu** and American presidents adds new layer to current political dynamics
A new poll shows that two-thirds of Israeli citizens favor ex-president Donald Trump over vice-president Kamala Harris (even though both dont want direct Iran conflict)
Recent survey data points to an interesting paradox in Israeli-American relations: while most Israelis back Trump‚ the real story of his relationship with Benjamin Netanyahu is more complex. Their supposed friendship wasnt as strong as many think — Trump actually supported Netanyahus political rival Benny Gantz during past elections
Historical patterns show Netanyahuʼs rocky path with US leaders: during his first DC visit back in 96‚ Bill Clinton was clearly frustrated with the Israeli PMʼs attitude. Later on Barack Obama showed visible discomfort in Netanyahuʼs presence; their meetings were notably tense
Trump has repeatedly pushed for a quick end to the Gaza situation telling Netanyahu to finish operations before next years inauguration. This timeline creates a tough spot for the Israeli PM who needs to balance military goals and his right-wing supporters demands
The situation hints at future challenges in US-Israel ties regardless of who wins the white house — with Netanyahu caught between domestic politics and international pressure
