“Just when you thought Bernie Sanders couldn’t get any more radical, he outdid himself,” Nikki Haley, former US ambassador to the UN, tweeted on Monday. Sanders, who is running for the Democratic presidential nomination, said to a J Street audience: “It is not anti-Semitism to say the Netanyahu government has been racist. That’s a fact.” He suggested that the US aid to Israel be redirected to Gaza instead. Halley shot back: “He wants the money we give to Israel to defend itself from terrorists and give it to Gaza, which is run by terrorists. Unreal. Why isn’t every other Dem presidential candidate saying he’s wrong?”

Keep an eye on Amy Klobushar – she’s probably to most pro-Israel candidate. Best economic proposals, too.
@ Burton Roseman:Even Biden has had serious anti Israel moments. Threatening Begin and talking to Bibi like he is a schoolboy because he his buddy Obama did not approve Jewish Building in Jerusalem and Judea & Samaria.
Biden is just not as anti Israel as the rest of the DEMs running for POTUS.
By the hour the Democrats grow more anti Israel. Hapless Biden is the last remaining pro Israel Dem. Presidential candidate.
Warren & Sanders were in a contest to see who could be more punitive on Israel and back the terrorists who want to destroy Israel. Warren insisted Jerusalem must be split in half and aid held as hostage if Israel applies its civil law to Jewish Towns in Judea/Samaria.
