The ZOA sent the announcement to their members, in a statement mentioning that they will be honoring the President for “being the best friend Israel ever had in the White House.” Most Israelis have positively perceived Trump’s position on Israel.

- Moving the U.S. embassy from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem;
- Recognizing Israel’s sovereignty over the Golan Heights;
- Brokering the Abraham Accords peace agreements between Israel, Bahrain and the United Arab Emirates; and three months later, between Israel and Morocco;
- Removing the U.S. from the 2015 Iran nuclear deal;
- Stopping U.S. funding of the Palestinian Authority and UNRWA, a group exclusively focused on financing Palestinian refugees and their descendants;
- Recognizing the legality of Jewish settlements in Judea and Samaria;
- Being the first U.S. president to pray at the Western Wall; and
- Issuing an executive order to strengthen Title VI of the Civil Rights Act in order to protect Jewish students.”
President Trump called himself “history’s most pro-Israel U.S. President” back in 2019. With 71% of Israel expressing confidence in the President’s “world leadership” abilities.
