U.S. No Longer Pro-Israel: Obambow Loses Another Ally

Fewer than one-third of Israelis regard the Obamabow administration’s views as pro-Israel, according to a new opinion poll reflecting Israeli unease ahead of Monday’s meeting at the White House between the traditional allies’ new leaders.

The 31% of respondents taking that position marked a significant drop from the 88% of respondents viewing the George W. Bush administration as pro-Israel, according to the Smith Research Institute poll reported in The Jerusalem Post.
