Senator Chris Van Hollen quote

As Israel and Hamas enter week 7 of their deadly conflict, Senator Chris Van Hollen sat down with Margaret Brennan on CBS Face the Nation to discuss the supplemental funding for Israel, Ukraine, and Taiwan. Brennan pressed the senator on statements he has made recently that being pro-Israel does not require being anti-Palestinian:

“Because you can be both pro-Israel, as I am, and also pro-Palestinian and support Palestinian rights and aspirations to self-determination and a homeland of their own. In fact, the president's vision, when he sees some light maybe at the end of this dark tunnel, has been a two-state solution. Israel living securely with a Palestinian state as a neighbor, where Palestinians have equal dignity and full rights.”–Senator Chris Van Hollen
