I am curious who in Israel is getting a lot of support from American Democrats vs. American Progressives, and how this support manifests itself. For instance, how do Israel's Democrats, including Meretz, or Yesh Atid benefit politically from their support?

I have no idea..... first time Ive heard there is a distinction between them .
Yesh Atid are much more the "establishment" than either Avoda or Meretz tho .
