[QUOTE="Frank Underwood, post: 440707, member: 35"] Inconsistently. He voted for the Afghanistan and Ukraine wars, but he voted against foreign aid packages in 2023 and 2024 that included military funding for Israel. His foreign policy record is far from perfect, but with the pack of mutants we have on both sides of the aisle in Washington D.C., his record's the least cozy towards Israel. In 2024, he cast the sole Democratic caucus vote against a $14 billion unconditional military aid bill for Israel. This, along with his public condemnation of Netanyahu's extremist government and the humanitarian crisis they're inflicting in Gaza, has led to faux accusations of antisemitism from staunch Israel supporters. The irony is many of them are not even Jewish (unlike Sanders). Of course, Bernie being Bernie, he still pulls his punches and says "Israel has a right to defend itself" while also admitting a genocide isn't defense. [/QUOTE]
