A Conversation With Senator Brian Schatz

Published | Video Starts at 22:47

It's something that has splintered the Democratic Party in many ways and continues to be. Continues to hang over that party's head in particular. Israel has been cut out of the conversation diplomatically and being sort of the last to know. I do think that's a problem. I have been a pretty vocal critic of the conduct of the war in Gaza, the Netanyahu government's especially conduct in the West Bank. (22:47–23:02)
