Like, what is the party stance on Israel party stance on any number of controversial issues?
And then everyone can fight it out.
It is like, what is the non-binding resolution of the DNC going to do right now?
It's going to give you politico stories like that is that's its sole purpose is for there to be political story political stories about it The other two resolutions by the way were wrecking one recognizing a Palestinian state and the other Conditioning military aid to Israel and I think the Middle East working group is a place where these resolution is supposed to go die Yeah, I think yeah you have you haven't heard a lot about the Middle East Middle East working group at the DNC.
It builds a lot of trust with the voters in the party.
Who maybe should be coming up with the position as opposed to calling the DNC.
I cannot imagine the next Democratic nominee winning the primary with a position that says we should continue giving the military and other aid to Israel that we give right now.
I feel like even conditioning aid at this point is the moderate position.
That's table six.
I think โ I imagine that most of them will get to ending aid to Israel.
I mean, I think there's an argument to be made, right?
Which is like, we should treat Israel from a perspective of the taxpayer funding that we are providing the same way we treat
Any other ally, any other country.
And to me, it's a question whether it's a real alliance right now, because I think that the government there is a an authoritarian government, which, yeah, we have one, too.
But I think that the government there is is is not one that I certainly want to support with my tax dollars as they have did what they did to Gaza are still doing to Gaza are doing what they are to the West Bank or doing what they are to Lebanon right now.
And so and it is a wealthy enough nation that they should be able to provide for their own defense.
