A significant disconnect exists between political pressure and public approval regarding Israel policy. Despite a fervent push from the progressive left for a reassessment of current policies, many politicians feel compelled to align closely with the Biden administration, possibly due to perceived pressure to demonstrate loyalty to Israel.
