2018 WA Senate race: on Foreign Policy


Susan Hutchison: Supports moving U.S. Embassy to Israel's capital Jerusalem

A strong U.S. relationship with our faithful ally in the Middle East is essential for peace in the region. I support moving the U.S. Embassy to Israel's capital in Jerusalem. I'm in favor of a 2-state solution to the Palestinian issue, but negotiations cannot be fruitful if some factions remain committed to the destruction of Israel. A wise U.S. strategy will support our friends' military capabilities and encourage strong economic growth and opportunity for all in the region.˙

Dave Strider: My family has been in North America since 1737

Q: Do you support or oppose the statement, "Support American Exceptionalism"?

A: And please tell what it is I,˙being here on the North American Continent since 1737 and some family members longer than that, having the Kings' General Cornwallis surrender to Washington at my grandmother's home, "the Moore House" -- is that what you mean?
