New Jersey Senator Cory Booker on Thursday defended Hillary Clinton’s position on Israel in spite of the “>confronted the New Jersey Senator Booker about Clinton’s “>BuzzFeed News. “And I think that Hillary Clinton, I would not support her, frankly, this would be a deal-breaker for me, if she did not have a very pro-Israel stance and a vision for our alliance.”
Instead of directly responding to the caller’s question, the New Jersey Senator sharply condemned the BDS movement, calling them “anti-Jewish.”
“I’m gonna go even further,” said Booker. “I think, what I’m seeing now in the BDS movement that’s going around this country. What I’m seeing now in the rise of anti-Semitism in Europe.

And I really do think it is an anti-Jewish movement.”
