US MIDTERM ELECTION CONFIRMS EROSION OF SUPPORT FOR ISRAEL , WITH EVEN TRUMP QUESTIONING MILITARY AID

What happened: US midterm election results and comments from President Donald Trump questioning military aid to Israel signaled eroding US support for Israel across both parties. Key numbers: Trump suggested ending some $4 billion in annual military aid. An academic study last year found the US provided $21.7 billion in aid to Israel since the start of the war in Gaza. Why it matters: A former Israeli ambassador said "something fundamental has shifted," and an analyst said an aid cutoff would be a significant unilateral change in the US-Israel relationship.
