Backers praise Netanyahu aide amid reports she may be tapped to succeed Ofir Akunis.
Caroline Glick has received a flood of support since reports surfaced that the veteran journalist and current international affairs adviser to Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is being considered as Israel’s next consul general in New York.
Rep. Marlin Stutzman (R-Ind.) told JNS that Glick “has been one of the strongest advocates for closer U.S.-Israeli relations for over 30 years. Her diplomatic body of work speaks for itself from her work in journalism, to her informational lectures, and all she has done while serving under Prime Minister Netanyahu. Anyone who knows Caroline can speak to her good character and her passion for tightening the bond between the United States and Israel.”
Glick was a senior contributing editor at JNS and hosted “The Caroline Glick” show on JNS TV before being joining the Netanyahu administration in February 2025.
“What’s needed in New York, especially now, is Caroline Glick as consul general. She’s exceptionally talented. Intelligent, knowledgeable, experienced and articulate,” Fox News commentator Mark Levin told JNS. “Given the hostile nature of the New York City mayor and his administration, in my opinion Israel needs a consul general who is strong, fearless and unapologetic. Caroline also knows the ropes and is highly respected both in Israel and here. She’d be a terrific consul general.”
Zionist Organization of America President Morton Klein told JNS, “I’ve known Caroline Glick for decades. She is arguably the greatest and smartest and most insightful and courageous pro-Israel journalist in the world. She would be the greatest consul general Israel has ever had. She can make Israel’s case in a powerful and persuasive way that will translate into bringing a large and new group of Israel supporters to the fore. She would cause a small revolution in Israel’s PR problems. She is an inspired choice.”
