Most Israelis say Trump will be pro-Israel

Some 83 percent of Israelis believe that President-elect Donald Trump will be a "pro-Israel president," Israeli daily Arutz Sheva quoted a new poll as saying.

The poll commissioned by the Ruderman Family Foundation also found that 49 percent of Israelis thought that the status of Jews in America would remain the same in the wake of the U.S. election, while 32 percent thought their status would be stronger and 19 percent weaker.

Five hundred Israelis responded to questions about the recent U.S. presidential election and its aftermath for Israel and the Jewish community.

Some 48 percent of respondents thought there was no chance that efforts by Trump would lead to a peace treaty between Israel and the Palestinians, with 45 percent saying there was a possible chance.

At the same time, 49 percent said there was a possible chance that Trump would move the U.S. Embassy to the occupied al-Quds ('Jerusalem') from Tel Aviv, with 26 percent giving a high chance and 22 percent no chance.

On the Iran nuclear deal, 42 percent said there was no chance that Trump would scrap the deal, with 43 percent saying there was a possible chance.

Only 2 percent said there was no doubt that Trump would scrap the deal.
