RASKIN: “Yeah, we’re absolutely unified behind Israel’s right to exist and Israel’s right to defend itself. And we’ll be standing strong with Israel.”

RASKIN: “Well, I just — I haven’t seen any of those. And all that I’ve heard is a very powerful consensus that we need to stand by Israel as it defends itself.”
