Rahm Emanuel Warns that Israel Has Become a 'Territorial Pariah' in a Blistering Speech
Rahm Emanuel will urge sanctions on Israelis and settlement backers while calling for an end to U.S. defense subsidies, citing shifting Democratic views on Israel.
- On Wednesday, potential 2028 presidential candidate Rahm Emanuel will address Tel Aviv University, warning that Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has led Israel to a "dead end" that turned the country into a pariah.
- Emanuel argues that unconditional American support has enabled Netanyahu to ignore U.S. concerns without consequence, emboldening poor policy decisions that isolated Israel globally.
- Recent polling from The Associated Press-NORC Center for Public Affairs Research shows 58% of Democrats say the United States is "too supportive" of Israel, up from 45% in January 2024.
- Emanuel arrived in Tel Aviv on Sunday and is intentionally avoiding Israeli elected officials during his visit to prevent election interference; his agenda includes hospital visits and meeting an Oct. 7 hostage's family.
- Netanyahu faces reelection in October and may use the confrontation with Emanuel for political gain, while the speech signals how Gaza's war reshapes 2028 presidential politics and Democratic Party divisions.
