Reid: We’re Now Talking About Potential Occupation of the Gaza Strip Which Caused Israel to Be at War
EXCERPT:
REID: "Alex, let me bring you in here, because we know that the trauma induced by the Iraq war and the U.S. presence in the Middle East, on top of 20 years in Afghanistan, has been significant, and it was also a significant reason that Barack Obama was a popular politician who could be president, and it also has been a big selling point for Donald Trump, who denied he supported the Iraq war. What he’s now proposing, and I think a lot of people thought of Donald Trump as an isolationist and wanting to make the U.S. presence in the world smaller, we’re now talking about potential occupation of the Gaza Strip, which has caused Israel to be at war in Gaza even before October 7th, of the October 7th attacks. We’re talking about the United States taking that position of occupation."
