Gavin Newsom says Democrats ‘overwhelmingly opposed to the current regime in Israel’

California Governor Gavin Newsom stated that Democrats are overwhelmingly opposed to the current regime in Israel, specifically criticizing Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and AIPAC. Speaking with a view toward potential 2028 presidential aspirations, Newsom asserted that the Democratic Party maintains a unified stance on the Jewish state, drawing a distinction regarding the situation in Gaza even for those who might not classify it as genocide.

The remarks highlight ongoing internal political dynamics within the Democratic Party regarding U.S. policy toward Israel and its current leadership. By addressing the controversial actions of Netanyahu and the influence of lobby groups like AIPAC, Newsom's comments reflect broader party debates over foreign policy and Middle East relations.
