Because at the end of the day, our "allies" are involved in a forever war over there that they are refusing or unable to put an end to.

This is a possible step towards an end to that, and the only true one available for a guy who will never be willing to say "fuck Israel, leave em to die."

I don't like it and wish he didn't, and absolutely want to leave them to die, but we are also a generation too early to have politicians take any stance most of us would consider "acceptable" regarding the Israel problem.
