    Expressing the vague potential to confront a far-right Israeli government isn’t going to lose her any Democratic votes

    No, but it would cost her millions in donations and support from Zionist lobbies. It would also push those same lobbies to more heavily donate and support the GOP. Not to mention the millions that would be at stake from weapons manufacturing lobbies who would see any wavering on Israel support as potential to lose one of their biggest buyer. All that lost money would lead to a loss in votes.

    The world is complicated and a tangled mess.
