I'll never vote for any kinds of restrictions on aid, whether it's military, financial, or intelligence. There are ever to be any restrictions on that. And now, for here we are, we can have peace. Again, that's become part of the serious problem in our party."
"Well, I'm saying I refuse to pander to the part of my Democratic Party that finds that there's value in being anti-Israel. And that's effectivelythey use the word anti-ZionismI mean, effectively what that's really become on college campuses and places is just anti-Semitism. We have a problem here in our party, and I'm going to stand against that and always be an unapologetic supporter for Israel."
Sen. John Fetterman criticized Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez's call to end military aid to Israel, calling that stance part of a rot in the Democratic Party. He argued that choosing to defend Hamas or Iran is wrong and declared he will never vote for any restrictions on military, financial, or intelligence aid to Israel. Fetterman equated anti-Zionism on college campuses with anti-Semitism and described that faction as a serious problem in the party. He said he refuses to pander to that wing and will remain an unapologetic supporter of Israel. He also predicted Democrats could regain the House and narrow the Senate majority in 2026.
