After over an hour of standoff, U.S. Embassy intervention secured their release, while Israeli forces claimed they acted to restore order. The incident underscores a growing rift within the Democratic Party over U.S. support for Israel, as public opinion shifts and lawmakers question $3.8 billion in annual military aid. Khanna’s firsthand experience has only deepened his resolve to run for president, amid a broader U.S. debate over Israel’s West Bank policies and their legal and moral implications.
