Abdul El-Sayed’s triumph in the Michigan Democratic Senate primary marks another instance in a series of surprising results underscoring rising criticism of Israel. This trend signifies a notable change in the U.S. political landscape regarding support for Israel, causing apprehension in Israel about the potential permanence of this shift.

In Herzliya, Israel, sentiments of concern are emerging as the longstanding bipartisan U.S. support for Israel appears to wane.
