âAnd I think if this war continues, particularly if itâs continuing when we head to the Democratic convention in Chicago, then it creates a problem for us with the coalition that Barack Obama built, which was young people, progressives, voters of colour, that really turned out.â
This is the best summary I could come up with:
âThe bear-hugging of Netanyahu has been a strategic mistake,â Ro Khanna said, accusing the Israeli leader of conducting âa callous warâ in Gaza, in defiance of the United States.
Speaking to One Decision, a podcast co-hosted by Sir Richard Dearlove, a former British intelligence chief, Khanna, from California, also called Netanyahu âinsufferably arrogantâ, for acting as if he is âsomehow an equalâ to Biden.
Liz Landers, a One Decision guest host, asked Khanna about a recent trip to Michigan to meet leaders of the stateâs large Arab American community.
Iâve been in Congress eight years and my record reflects that I unequivocally condemned the brutal Hamas attack [on Israel] on 7 October, the rapes, the murders.
Asked about a looming clash over Rafah, Khanna highlighted Netanyahuâs behaviour, refusing to heed Bidenâs warning that the attack would represent a âred lineâ.
Khanna said there was potential for the convention, in mid-August, to generate unwelcome echoes of chaos in Chicago in 1968, the year of an election won by the Republican Richard Nixon amid protests against the Vietnam war.
