(American Interest) Harry Zieve Cohen - 88 U.S. senators, including dozens of Democrats, signed a letter asking Obama to veto "one-sided" UN resolutions on Israel. Given all the speculation that the Democratic Party might be turning against Israel, no news is, in this case, news. Bernie Sanders did not sign the letter, but the Democrats' position still looks much as it has for the past several decades: Advocate two states, with the U.S. playing a key mediating role, and firmly defend Israel against international criticism. It's not just the usual old timers in the Democratic Party; "future of the party" senators like Cory Booker, Kirsten Gillibrand, and Elizabeth Warren are signatories too. The Republican Party, meanwhile, continues to be as pro-Israel as ever. This pro-Israel consensus exists for a very simple reason: it's popular. 54% of Americans say they support Israel more than they support the Palestinians - even in the Democratic Party, only 19% say the opposite. 2016-09-21 00:00:00Full Article
