== This lind of principled/measured response makes Cory Booker more of a treat to GOP than loca AOC ==
From ''[[Meet The Press]]'' , [[Cory Booker]] today May 10, 2026.
WELKER:
You joined a record number of Democrats, 40 senators, who recently voted against sending more arms to Israel. A similar effort only got 15 Democratic votes, for example. Are you now opposed to the United States sending arms to Israel going forward?
BOOKER:
Let's be clear. I'm opposed to going into a reckless war that has made the United States and other Arab allies less safe. I will not support arms to the United States and Israel — anything that will endanger our security or Israel. I support our military being the strongest in the world. I support Israel having a military edge and offering deterrence. In the context of this war, I will not support more military armaments to conduct what I think is a disaster that's endangering American lives, Israeli lives, and, as we see in the UAE and Saudi Arabia, our regional allies as well.
WELKER:
Just to be very clear, you would approve arms sales to Israel in a future entanglement if you saw that was militarily necessary?
BOOKER
I will continue to support that. I will not support this kind of war, and we have a nation now that's looking at our disastrous president, a disastrous leader of Israel, who in this war are hurting our nation, their nation, and that region. I cannot support this war effort.
