As staunch Israel critics notch wins across the US, these candidates could be next

The article discusses the rise of left-wing candidates in the United States who are critically opposed to Israel or its existence, many of whom have won Democratic primaries and are poised to enter Congress. These candidates often benefit from the backing of groups like the Democratic Socialists of America and resonate with voters who believe the U.S. is overly supportive of Israel. Concerns have been raised by Jewish groups and others about potential antisemitism in the rhetoric of some of these candidates. Examples include Kai Newkirk, challenging incumbent Rep. Greg Stanton in Arizona’s 4th Congressional District, who advocates for an arms embargo on Israel and ending military subsidies to the country. Other candidates, such as Abdul El-Sayed in Michigan and Cori Bush in Missouri, have faced criticism from Jewish communities and pro-Israel groups over their positions on Israel.
