2018 AZ Senate race: on Foreign Policy


Kelli Ward: Celebrate American Exceptionalism

America is cheering--we are building a safe, strong, proud nation-- why are the DC Democrats sitting on their hands, many scowling, refusing to celebrate America's exceptionalism? #TrumpWon #AmericaIsWinning --the PEOPLE are making America great again!

Deedra Abboud: Two-state solution for Israeli-Palestinian conflict

Few issues are more polarizing than the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, and fewer people than ever are willing to step away from their respective "sides" long enough to work toward a peaceful solution. I have witnessed firsthand the tremendous love and cooperation between the Jewish and Muslim communities here in Arizona. I firmly believe Israeli and Palestinian leaders can negotiate in good faith to achieve a 2-state solution. The 2-state solution has been American policy for 4 administrations.
