American Jews are mostly Jewish nationalists, hence their overwhelming support of Israel. Nation =/= country. They are nationalists for the Jewish nation, as in people, regardless of what country they reside. You could also call them globalist. That may seem contradictory, but it's not if you want Jews to dominate the world.
"Globalist" is a nebulous word. You could say it means wanting to dominate the world (which means you could still be a nationalist) or wanting to erase any distinction between all peoples and countries (not compatible with nationalism).
Yeah, but they really kinda aren't. More of the American jewish conservative factions are, but the American jewish leftist factions are not.
That's not how globalist is ever used. Even when it comes to 'global dominance of an ideology', that's not what Globalism implies. Globalism's intolerance of other ideas is just an extension of it's Leftism.
American Jews are overwhelmingly left-wing and overwhelmingly pro-Israel.

American jews are majority left-wing, and "pro-Israel" has to be more specific:
Which is what I'm talking about. Plenty of Leftist jews are sympathetic to the "Pro-Palestine" movement; while most Leftist non-jews are just explicitly Pro-Palestine. Leftist jews are going to balk at calling Israel an apartheid state, while Leftist non-jews are going to straight up claim Israel's committing a genocide.
Honestly, a good breakdown of that infighting can be seen in the UK Labour Party's Antisemitism investigation which documents the same splits, but within the UK.
Weaker doesn't mean they aren't supportive. Look at their reasoning. Hating Trump is the biggest reason.
