2020 Dems on the Israel resolution at the UN

[Shadows]

Btw, while I don't think either Sanders or Warren have yet commented on either the UN resolution or Kerry's speech, both of them were among the 8 Senators to boycott Netanyahu's speech before Congress last year:

Didn't know Tim Kaine also boycotted. Gillibrand, Booker, Schumer etc are all in the pockets of donors, a large portion of whom are Jewish. You also have to account for the fact that NY has a large jewish population.

NY jews are liberals who support a two state solution. This "in the pocket of jewish donors and voters" is stupid.

Nope that's just you being ridiculous. Jews throughout the country are liberals. And I was not talking about catering to Jewish people but more specifically donors some of whom are ultra pro-Israel & give large sums - You don't lose donors by taking a stand for Netanyahu but when you oppose settlements you can lose a few big donors!

Booker had to apologize n go begging to some Jewish donors after his vote on the Iran Deal & some Jewish donors boycotted him saying sorry!

And Brown has no spine & never had.

For all the hate on Gabbard (unfair smear attacks like on Ellison) she voted against Settlements on Palestine (but no she is Islamophobic).

AFAIK, Klobuchar, Sanders, and Warren have still not said a word about the UN resolution.  (Though maybe they did, but I missed it.  If they did, then please post.)

Here are another couple of data points though….There was this letter from Jan. 2015, in which 75 Senators wrote to John Kerry saying that they wouldn’t support foreign aid to the Palestinian Authority until the Obama admin. completes a review of the PA’s joining of the International Criminal Court:

Booker, Gillibrand, and Klobuchar all signed, while Sanders and Warren did not.

There’s also this video of Warren “running away” from a question about the Gaza War:

And then there’s the infamous 2014 Sanders Town Hall confrontation over Israel:

Warren justified those Gaza Civilian killings & was ultra-pro Israel then. Now only because Bernie has dared to take a balanced approach & you actually have Dems come out & say "We have to be balanced" that she is not taking a stand.

She is a clever politician & wants to play its safe.

Bernie shot himself in the foot with the Palestine comments before NY of all states (NY has significant jewish population), so if provoked & pushed he may respond.

He defended Ellison & took another shot against Netanyahu saying criticizing Netanyahu doesn't make you anti-Israel !
