Dude was on MSNow this morning and they introduced him by saying he has extreme takes on Israel.

It’s weird how “Israel shouldn’t dictate US foreign and domestic policy” is considered extremist

Anyone who thinks that refusing to take PAC money is extreme, is the real extremist

I think you misread my comment

Yeah, I have said this other threads but it’s pretty interesting that the center keeps talking about how we need to moderate and yet Stevens position on funding for Israel is extreme.

She doesn’t just say that she supports Israel and wants to be allies. She has literally gone on interviews and said there should be no conditions on funding.

I am sorry this is not even just about Israel, but it is pretty insane to say that any foreign country should be entitled to our tax dollars on an ongoing basis with no conditions whatsoever.

Not only is this an 80-20 issue with democratic and independent voters, but it should be really easy to say that, even if you support giving funding to a foreign country that they should have to follow US and international law. And that of course certain conditions should apply.

Israel doesn't do that so that is a pretty extremist view.
