RSSThis article immediately excuses Tulsi Gabbard, because her platform is peaceful foreign policy and ending regime change wars. I really like her and have donated to her campaign, but the truth is she voted “Yea” on H.R. 246 and then got a lot of negative feedback from her supporters. In looking back over her previous positions regarding Israel, it’s clear she has held Israel’s interests in high esteem. I realize she is a “work in progress”; as such she responded to her supporters by supporting Ilhan Omar’s H.R. 496. As I said, I like her very much, but Bernie Sanders has been more consistent on the issue of Israel and Palestine than Tulsi Gabbard. She deserves kudos for calling out the empire on their war machine, but needs to get a better handle on this terrible problem with Israel/AIPAC calling the shots in Congress & the suffering in Palestine.
