The Israeli media “Jerusalem Post” analyzed that the US midterm election results will significantly affect Israel's interests at three key levels: Trump's policy on Iran, Congress's new power pattern, and perhaps most importantly — the 2028 presidential election. Along with the changing trend of public opinion within the Democratic Party, the warm-up for this election campaign has already begun. Analysts believe that this election campaign sent a clear signal: the war in Iran has cost the Republican Party a political price. There are two deductive scenarios. Israel needs to closely follow up: First, Trump stepped up diplomatic mediation, made concessions in negotiations with Tehran, sought to reach an agreement, and packaged it into a diplomatic outcome, thereby pulling the US out of the conflict. Second, ending the war through a short but high-intensity military operation, declaring that America's goals have been achieved, and US investment in the region is quickly curtailed. According to the analysis, no matter which direction it takes, Israel's interests are not necessarily consistent with the White House. This disagreement is likely to become the core source of tension between the two countries. Furthermore, the power of progressives and critical positions against Israel is growing in the new parliament. A group of new Democratic lawmakers are about to enter the National Assembly. Some of them are strongly critical of Israel, and a few are clearly anti-Israel.
