The five Republican presidential candidates who participated in Wednesday's debate all expressed nearly unconstrained support for Israel amid its war with Hamas.
"The first thing I said to him when it happened was I said, 'Finish them, finish them,"' Haley said."And the reason is, I worked on this every day when I was at the United Nations. And we have to remember that they have to 1. Eliminate Hamas, 2. Support Israel with whatever they need whenever they need it, and 3. Make sure we bring our hostages home."
None of the candidates criticized Israel's significant military response, which has resulted in the deaths of thousands of Palestinian civilians and the destruction of much of Gaza's infrastructure. The Hamas-controlled Palestinian Health Ministry has said more than 10,000 people have been killed since Oct. 7, though that total does not differentiate between civilians and combatants, and the White House has cast doubt on the veracity of their tally.
