I think most Democrats will say no more aid to Israel.
Israel is a rich country.
We don't give aid to France.
We don't give aid to England.
We should treat Israel as any other ally.
If they want to buy our weapons, we will sell them to them if they are complying with the law and if they are supporting our international interests.
In other words, that's where I think Democrats are going to come out.
There is a sort of
Second line in this argument, which is uh we should not sell, we should embargo the sale of weapons to Israel.
And I think that's where there's going to be a bit of an internal fight.
Personally, my view is.
Um
It it all depends on whether they follow the law and support our national interests, because that's how we treat every other country in the world.
If they are pursuing policies that undermine stability in the Middle East or undermine what we think needs to be done there, which is to say the creation of a Palestinian state, uh, or you know, the end of war crimes in Gaza and the end of war crimes in in in the West Bank.
then maybe we'll be open to selling them some weapons.
If and again there are the Leahy laws in place.
I y you can't s the the US is not supposed to sell weapons to countries that deny humanitarian aid to people that need it.
We're not supposed to sell weapons to countries that violate international law or commit war crimes.
Israel's doing those things.
So right now, they are not eligible to even be sold these weapons.
