Overview
Coverage following the US midterm elections presents the US-Israel relationship as a growing political liability for Donald Trump and Benjamin Netanyahu. Reports describe Trump’s suggestion that military aid to Israel could end at year’s close as contested by both pro-Palestinian and pro-Israel constituencies, while Iranian coverage emphasizes a Republican debate over whether to remain aligned with Trump and his approach to Israel.
