Kasich, Sanders seen by Israelis as least pro-Israel

Republican presidential candidate John Kasich and Democratic candidate Bernie Sanders are seen by Israelis as the least pro-Israel, a poll finds.

The survey of 500 Israelis, conducted by the Ruderman Family Foundation, concludes that just 5% of Israelis believe the Jewish Democratic contender is the most pro-Israel, while just 1% believe Kasich is. Meanwhile, just 6% of Israelis believe Republican White House hopeful Ted Cruz is most supportive of the Jewish state.

Donald Trump is seen by most as the most pro-Israel (33%), followed closely by Hillary Clinton (31%).
