Democratic members are concerned that the unequivocal support for Israel could wane as the ally begins its counteroffensive against Hamas in Gaza, which could jeopardize military aid to the country, they told Politico.

The way Israeli leadership is talking is this will be different and probably shocking. Just as shocking as murdered and beheaded infants.
