Rahm Emanuel Declares Era of Unconditional US Support for Israel Ending
Mario Nawfal Interviews
Trump Praises Erdogan WHILE Netanyahu Trashes Him on TV - w/ Joe Kent
What was said
"Rahm Emanuel is positioning himself as a pro-Israel Democrat who nevertheless argues that the era of unconditional US support for Israel is ending. He calls for US support to become conditional, including sanctioning violent Israeli settlers, reducing or ending some US subsidies for settlements and conditioning aspects of military and diplomatic support on Israeli policy changes."
Former Obama chief of staff and current Japan ambassador Rahm Emanuel, traditionally seen as pro-Israel and having received AIPAC funding, delivered a speech arguing that unconditional US support for Israel must end. He places blame on Netanyahu for damaging Israel's standing through the Gaza War and calls for conditional support including sanctions on Israeli settlers. The speech signals a significant shift in Democratic establishment positioning on Israel policy.
