US-Israeli Settlers Rooting for Trump in 2024 Election
As the US presidential election approaches, Americans residing in Israel are showing strong support for Republican candidate Donald Trump. Recent surveys indicate that the majority of Israelis, around 66 percent according to Israel’s Channel 12 News, are hoping for Trump's reelection.
During his previous term, Trump demonstrated his commitment to Israel by relocating the American embassy to Jerusalem, acknowledging Israeli control over the Golan Heights, and fostering diplomatic ties between Israel and several Arab nations under the Abraham Accords. Many Israelis anticipate continued support from Trump in combating various challenges involving Iran-backed militants in Gaza, Lebanon, and Iran itself.
