The VP debate.

TW: Well, thank you. And thank you for those joining at home tonight. Let's keep in mind where this started. October 7th, Hamas terrorists massacred over 1400 Israelis and took prisoners. Iran, or, Israel's ability to be able to defend itself is absolutely fundamental, getting its hostages back, fundamental, and ending the humanitarian crisis in Gaza. But the expansion of Israel and its proxies is an absolute, fundamental necessity for the United States to have the steady leadership there. You saw it experienced today, where, along with our Israeli partners and our coalition, able to stop the incoming attack. But what's fundamental here is that steady leadership is going to matter. It's clear.

Emphasis mine.

Oh. I don't think he meant physical expansion of the country's borders, but you never know with these people.

The number of Zionists who don't want to expand is quite few. If you're a Zionist, then you're a colonialist by definition.

Colonialists gonna colonize.
