Former CIA Director James Woolsey is certain that if elected the next president of the United States this week, Donald Trump will improve damaged relations between his nation and Israel.

Woolsey, who is working as an advisor to Trump, was in Israel last week and told Army Radio that the Obama Administration’s “excessive hostility and criticism” had brought low the US-Israel relationship.

“A good deal of what was done needs to be changed,” he said.

Woolsey said he could not predict the outcome of Tuesday’s election, but seemed confident that either way, the situation for Israel would improve.
