Israel First Democrat exposed for aligning with Lindsey Graham on Iran
A progressive attack on Florida Democrat Jared Moskowitz, framed as bad for voters who want a Democrat that puts American interests first.
- Moskowitz said on his foreign policy he is to the right of JD Vance and agrees more with Republicans Lindsey Graham and Tom Cotton on Iran.
- He backed maximum pressure on Iran and said the US should defend Israel even if Israel strikes first.
- He refused to put any conditions on military aid to Israel, even when asked about following international law.
- His primary challenger Oliver Larkin takes the opposite line, calling for Netanyahu's arrest over war crimes and a pullback from the Iran war.
- Larkin was endorsed by Rebellion PAC; Moskowitz has taken heavy pro-Israel lobby money.
Outlook: The Moskowitz-Larkin fight heads to a Florida Democratic primary, with lobby spending expected to rise as the challenge grows.
