        Of the two she’s the one whose had statements about Israel needing to respect international law. So there’s no evidence she believes Israel should be allowed to conduct a genocide.

        To be fair I think most people think it (and other countries) should be able to defend itself… it’s just that they went from defense to all out genocide like a year ago.

        The current party doesn’t know where that line is while the other party wants them to “finish the job”.

        Which to this point has been attempts at a cease fire and offshore missile defense help. Putting troops under Iranian missiles is a massive departure from the past year.

          No, up to this point it has been billions of dollars and weapons to Israel with the occasional finger wag to them. Troops on the ground is the natural next step of his policy up to now, and congruent with Kamala’s statements that “Iran is the number one enemy”.
