Veteran Israeli journalist and Haaretz columnist Gideon Levy has predicted a major, imminent shift in American policy toward Israel, driven by the escalating conflict in the region, particularly regarding Iran. Writing in April and May 2026, Levy argues that the "unconditional" support Israel has historically received is approaching a breaking point. [1, 2, 3, 4]
Key Points from Gideon Levy’s Analysis (May 2026):
- The "Post-Trump" Shift: Levy predicts that following the Trump administration, no future US president will continue the special, unconditional relationship with Israel.
- Iran War as a Turning Point: Levy posits that Israel has dragged the US into an unnecessary war of choice against Iran, which does not serve American interests.
- Blame Game: He expects that as the war continues, the U.S. will blame Israel for manipulating them into the conflict, leading to a severe rupture in relations.
- End of Unconditional Support: Levy warns that Israel's "destructive warpath" and reliance on military power will force the U.S. to curb its financial and military support.
- A "Toxic" Relationship: He describes the current U.S.-Israel relationship as "toxic" and nears its end, which he argues is necessary to stop Israel's "occupation, apartheid, and endless wars". [1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 7]
