I recognized Israel right after it was formed to provide a homeland for Jews after seeing the horrors of the Holocaust. The Israeli government was set up in Palestine, some Arabs were relocated but compensated. Israel has thrived and made advancements in the region. There was a conflict with Egypt, and if not for US interference, Nasser would have been defeated.

I'm on Israel's side, and so is Donald Trump. The opposing side supports terrorists.

Israel is America's greatest strength in the Middle East. Imagine a world without Israel, how many battleships and troops would be needed? I used to say as a young senator that I would be a Zionist, and I still am. Being a Zionist doesn't require being Jewish.

We should stop apologizing for supporting Israel as it is the best investment we make. If Israel didn't exist, the United States would have to create it to protect its interests in the region. It should be clear that Israel is America's strongest ally in the Middle East.

Recognizing Israel's formation, I wanted a homeland for Jews after seeing Nazi atrocities. We established the Israeli government in Palestine, relocating some Arabs who were compensated. Israel has thrived, achieving feats unseen in the region. Despite a conflict with Egypt, interference prevented escalation.

I was raised by my great grandmother, a Holocaust survivor who lost her entire extended family. She never supported the State of Israel because she believed it was wrong to inflict on others what was done to the Jewish people. She saw the state and the Zionists as becoming what they had once fought against. As a woman raised Jewish, it's unpopular for me to say this, but I no longer believe in the faith. However, the Jewish people are still my family.

Israel has sent rescue teams to disaster areas more than any other country, even though we only make up a tiny fraction of the world's population. We are a benefactor to all of humanity. People should not be afraid to call themselves Zionists. I am a Zionist.

Support for Israel in the Middle East should not require an apology. It is seen as a valuable investment, worth $3 billion, and crucial for protecting American interests in the region. In fact, the United States would even create Israel if it didn't exist already.

American Jews support Israel, and Jewish prime ministers have historically enlisted their support to pressure American presidents, which is understandable. Jews prioritize Israel's survival due to the Holocaust and believe that supporting Israel equates to supporting America. However, an American president must prioritize America's interests first. Presidents must avoid giving Israel a blank check. The speaker decided to seek good relations with Egypt and other neighbors of Israel, despite some Israeli friends preferring a special relationship with Israel only. The speaker believed that it better served Israel's interests for the United States to be a friend to Israel's neighbors, preventing a vacuum that the Soviet Union could fill, which the speaker believes should still be American policy today.

In 1947, the United Nations decided to create Israel in Palestine, dividing it into 8 zones. Palestinians would get 4 pieces, Israelis 3, and an international zone. Palestinians would have 48% of their state, even though Israelis legally owned only 5% of Palestine. This decision was driven by guilt over the holocaust.

There were people, including Zionists, who opposed any action unless they were given all of Palestine without effort. However, it was not feasible to relocate millions of people and expect both groups to be satisfied. Recognizing Israel was a difficult decision that required compromise. The Jews wanted to remove all Arabs to the Tigris and Euphrates River, while the Arabs wanted to expel all Jews to the Red Sea. My goal was to find a homeland for the Jews while being fair to all parties involved.

In the Middle East, it's time to stop apologizing for supporting Israel. There's no need for apologies because our support for Israel is a valuable investment of $3 billion. Without Israel, the United States would have to create it to safeguard its interests in the region.

I am not pulling my perspective on Israel Palestine out of thin air. I have studied and researched this extensively. As a Jewish woman raised by a Zionist family, I have overcome my pro-Israel bias to see the viciousness and violence of the Zionist state. My interest in the conflict grew when friends returned from birthright trips and spoke negatively about Palestinians. I took multiple courses in college to gain a well-rounded understanding of Israeli-Palestinian politics, which solidified my pro-Palestine stance. The history of colonization and exploitation by Britain and the US led to the establishment of Israel on Palestinian land. The current leadership, like Benjamin Netanyahu, prioritizes wealth and military power over the well-being of Palestinians. Israel's actions constitute a genocide, slowly eroding the will of the Palestinian people while benefiting the primary stakeholders.

If I were Jewish, I would support Zionism. However, my father made it clear that being Jewish is not a requirement to be a Zionist. Israel plays a crucial role in ensuring the safety of Jews all over the world.

In the Middle East, it's time to stop apologizing for supporting Israel. There's no need for apologies because supporting Israel is a valuable investment. The United States sees Israel as essential for protecting its interests in the region. In fact, the United States would even create Israel if it didn't exist.

I will always support Israel, even if they commit war crimes or genocide. Israel is our ally and will always be our ally. The Jewish state will exist forever. I will never support the Palestinians. Goodbye to Palestine. God bless.

I have strong ties to Israel, rooted in my Jewish background. My family fled pogroms in Eastern Europe, and my grandfather's name is Israel. I grew up attending Sunday school as a reformed Jew. I deeply care about Israel's future and do not want to see it harmed.

In the Middle East, it's time to stop apologizing for supporting Israel. There's no need for an apology because supporting Israel is a valuable investment for the United States. If Israel didn't exist, the US would have to create it to protect its interests in the region. Personally, I consider myself a Zionist, even though being Jewish is not a requirement.

As a young senator, I expressed my support for Zionism, stating that even if I were not Jewish, I would still be a Zionist. I believe that Israel is crucial for protecting American interests in the Middle East, and it is the best investment we make, amounting to $3 billion. Without Israel, our presence in the region would require more battleships and troops. My father also taught me that being Jewish is not a prerequisite for being a Zionist.

There were people, including some Jews, who opposed any action that didn't give them all of Palestine. However, it was not feasible to relocate millions of people and expect everyone to be satisfied. Despite objections, we took gradual steps and things are progressing. Recognizing Israel as a state was not an easy decision, as it required compromising with the Arabs and dividing Palestine. The Jews wanted the Arabs gone, and the Arabs wanted the Jews gone. I aimed to find a homeland for the Jews while being fair to the Arabs. However, in such situations, the people you help the most often become the most angry with you.

I am not pulling my perspective on Israel Palestine out of thin air. I have studied and researched this extensively. As a Jewish woman raised by a Zionist family, I have overcome my pro-Israel bias to see the viciousness and violence of the Zionist state. My college experience and coursework on Israeli-Palestinian politics further solidified my pro-Palestine stance. This conflict is not as complicated as people make it out to be. It stems from Britain and the US wanting to exploit Palestine for military labor and land colonization. The establishment of Israel was never intended as a gift for Jews, but rather a trap to exploit the land and its people. Israel's actions over the years amount to a genocide, slowly exhausting and harming the Palestinian population while benefiting the primary stakeholders.

I am not pulling my perspective on Israel Palestine out of thin air. I have studied and researched this extensively. As a Jewish woman raised by a Zionist family, I have overcome my pro-Israel bias to see the viciousness and violence of the Zionist state. In college, I took multiple courses on Israeli-Palestinian politics and the Middle East conflict, which solidified my pro-Palestine stance. The history of Palestine's colonization by Britain and the US, and the displacement of Palestinians for Jewish settlement, is clear. Israel's actions over the past 75 years can be described as a genocide, with the intention of exhausting and displacing the Palestinian population for the benefit of the primary stakeholders.

I had to compromise to recognize Israel, dividing Palestine to find a homeland for Jews while being fair to Arabs. Despite opposition from both sides, I, as US president, followed through with what I believed was right with Congress support. Many Jewish people were against me because they wanted all of Palestine. They didn't want to drive all Arabs into the Tigris and Euphrates Rivers.

I grew up in Jerusalem in a Zionist family with a strong political background. Based on my personal experience and family history, I firmly believe that Israel is an apartheid state. It was never intended to be a democracy, as establishing a Jewish state in an Arab country inherently excludes the possibility of true democracy.

I support Israel keeping its borders where they are now and Palestine finding a new place to live. It may sound harsh, but that's what I believe.
