Survey of 2024 Senate campaign websites: on War & Peace
Lucas Kunce:
Negotiated for fewer arms, less chance of conflict
My work led to a position on the Joint Staff as an International Negotiations Officer. There, I oversaw U.S. military compliance with our international arms control obligations and negotiated arms control agreements and strategy at the National
Security Council, NATO, and non-allied countries like Russia. I spent every day doing what I could to make the world a safer place, with fewer arms, less chance of conflict, and more money to spend on improving lives rather than destroying them.

John Deaton:
Israel has the absolute right to defend itself
The brutal terrorist attacks of October 7th serve as a solemn reminder that evil, and anti-Semitism still exist in our world. I strongly believe that Israel has the absolute right to defend itself and its borders. Hamas is a terrorist organization whose
Charter is the complete destruction and annihilation of Israel and to bring death to every Jew. Any solution to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict must include an unequivocal acknowledgment of Israel's right-to-exist. In sum, Hamas seeks to kill Jews and
Americans and it must be defeated. From being the sole democracy in a troubled part of the world, to sharing intelligence on terrorists who want to kill Americans, Israel is one of America's strongest allies in the world--and supporting Israel is in
America's interests.I believe Rules of Engagement must be followed. Even a country defending itself from an act of genocide must takes measures to reduce the loss of civilian life, whenever possible.

John Deaton:
Only finance Ukraine with metrics for tactical independence
America is financing a war between Ukraine and Russia that has no plan and no end in sight. Hundreds of billions of taxpayer dollars have been spent by lawmakers without a clear definition of what constitutes success.
Russia is undoubtedly an adversary and should not be allowed to invade neighboring nations, but Ukraine must also establish its own processes for self-determination.
As Senator, I would only support additional funds to Ukraine if
President Zelenskyy can meet metrics for financial and tactical independence established by the U.S. in a bipartisan matter.

Nella Domenici:
Hamas must be destroyed; Israel-Hamas war is ours too
Nella unequivocally supports Israel and the longstanding U.S. policy recognizing Israel's right to exist and its right to self-defense. Israel was brutally attacked on October 7 and has the right to defend itself. The atrocities against Israeli women
and children and the ensuing war have shattered any credible possibility of a two-state solution.Hamas is a terrorist group and a proxy for Iran. Its leadership is committed to "wiping Israel off the face of the earth," and "Death to America."
Hamas' strategy has been and continues to be aberrationaly inhumane. Hamas must be destroyed as quickly as possible. The hostages must be freed.
The United States-Israeli partnership has been built on mutual interests and shared democratic values.
The Israel-Hamas war is as much ours as it is Israel's. It is a conflict for democratic American values and against authoritarian Iranian values and influence--two opposing worldviews for the region.
