Prof. Eitan Gilboa, a US expert, warns in an interview with Radio North 104.5FM that Israel could be hit twice by the US midterm elections. According to him, President Trump prefers a deal with Iran over a high-intensity war, and there is a debate in the White House over the next steps. Gilboa estimates that Trump will lose the House of Representatives and may also lose the Senate, leading to a Congress hostile to Israel, with extreme representatives from the Democratic Party. He notes that Trump does not want the current government that includes Ben Gvir and Smotrich, and that there is unprecedented interference by both sides in each other's internal politics. Gilboa emphasizes that Israel needs American weapons and that there may be factors opposing such sales.
