Poll: Israelis Prefer Trump Over Harris

A recent Channel 12 poll reveals that 66% of Israelis prefer former President Donald Trump over Vice President Kamala Harris in the upcoming U.S. presidential election, with only 17% favoring Harris. This preference is attributed to Trump's strong pro-Israel policies, including moving the U.S. embassy to Jerusalem and recognizing Israeli sovereignty over the Golan Heights, which have garnered significant appreciation among Israelis. In contrast, the Biden administration's attempts to moderate Israeli actions have led to a decline in favorable views towards U.S. leadership among Israelis. Additionally, the poll indicates a stark contrast in preferences between Israeli voters and American Jews, with the latter leaning more towards Harris. The survey also touched on current Israeli political dynamics, showing Netanyahu's Likud Party leading in potential Knesset seats. This reflects a broader trend of increasing concern among Israelis regarding national security over social issues.
