Bennett: Israel a 'negative brand' among US students, 'genocide' label sticks

Former Israeli PM Naftali Bennett publicly acknowledges that Israel is associated with 'genocide' among US students and has become a 'negative brand' for the first time. This marks a notable shift in Israeli elite discourse, reflecting sustained reputational damage from the Gaza conflict. The statement signals potential long-term erosion of US public support for Israel, with implications for bilateral relations and regional diplomacy.
