Summary
Elise Stefanik, President Trump’s nominee for U.S. ambassador to the UN, stated during her confirmation hearing that Israel has a “biblical right” to the occupied West Bank, aligning with far-right Israeli officials.
Stefanik sidestepped support for Palestinian self-determination, blaming their leadership for failures.
Her stance signals a shift from Biden-era opposition to Israeli settlements, with Trump lifting sanctions on Israeli settler groups and nominating pro-settlement figures like Mike Huckabee for key roles.
Stefanik also vowed to audit UN funding and block aid to Palestinian refugee agencies.
Everyone to the left of Netanyahu is a tankie, according to centrists.
For real, centrists are often insufferable in their refusal to reflect on their beliefs unless you can prove to their face they hold a small percentage minority view and then they acquiesce like the intellectual cowards they are. That is the reason you call them centrists and not some other word that points to a set of beliefs with any degree of substance.
The Palestinian Genocide is one of these instances.
