TRU.S. Vice President JD Vance has criticized Israeli officials for allegedly manipulating American public opinion and undermining diplomatic efforts with Iran. Speaking on The Joe Rogan Experience, Vance claimed that Israel is losing support among U.S. citizens, citing a Pew Research Center poll showing 60% of Americans hold an unfavorable view of Israel. He specifically mentioned Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu as increasingly unpopular and suggested some Israelis are working to prolong the conflict with Iran. Vance emphasized that while Israel remains a U.S. ally, relations should be based on shared interests rather than ideological alignment. He tied his allegations to a digital campaign run by Brad Parscale’s firm, which aimed to influence young conservative voters, though Parscale denied attempts to sabotage Trump’s Iran policy. Netanyahu’s office did not respond to the claims.
