Green the Zionist

Gemini

Governor Joshua Booth Green

Hawaii Governor Green, born 2/11/1970 in Kingston, New York, is Jewish and has a strong connection to Israel, but whether he specifically identifies as a Zionist is a label he does not frequently use in public political discourse. However, his actions and political record demonstrate strong support for the U.S.–Israel alliance.

Key details of his position include:

• Stated Support: His administration has officially stated its commitment to ‘unbreakable bonds’ with Israel and enduring support for its security.
• Personal Ties: Green has Jewish ancestry and extended family currently living in Israel, specifically in Haifa.
• State Relations: In his role as governor, he has maintained strong diplomatic and cultural ties with Israeli officials, while also navigating calls from local activist groups to terminate the state of Hawaii’s partnership with Israel.

​In 2025, he met with Consul General Israel Bachar.

Green has never uttered a word about UAP.

​Records from local news outlets like Civil Beat showed that Green owned two different units over time within the same high-rise building, Capitol Place, Downtown Honolulu. He purchased a 3-bedroom unit there with his wife in 2013, which was the second property he had owned in that development.

In 2016, an investigation by the Hawaii State Ethics Commission found that he had failed to list his condominium interest on his annual financial disclosure forms. Green settled the matter with a minor $300 administrative penalty, clarifying that he viewed the space as a primary personal residence for his family when traveling to Oahu for legislative work, rather than an investment or rental property.

His primary personal residence is his home on the Big Island. While he owns a condominium at Capitol Place for when legislative duties require him to be in town, his core residence and long-term home is on the Big Island, where he and his family have deep roots dating back to his medical practice in Kaʻū.

It's a confusing tale of lying.
