- "Just as Russia has acted out, Hamas has brutally attacked the people of Israel. I understand that Israel has to rid Gaza of Hamas, but we must do everything possible to provide humanitarian aid to the innocent Palestinian people who are in the crossfires. The United States is better served by sharing its leadership to form coalitions and its military innovation and equipment, but we should reserve our men and women in uniform to direct threats to America."
