When it comes to the Israel-Hamas war, there are three Vivek Ramaswamy messages. There’s the one he gives to predominantly Jewish audiences, as he did Saturday in Las Vegas at the Republican Jewish Coalition Summit: that the nation of Israel is strong and doesn’t need the U.S. to defend itself. There’s the one he delivers on the campaign trail, where he reminds Americans that Israel “isn’t our 51st state” and stresses that an attack on Israel isn’t the same as an attack on the U.S.
That was a slightly different message from what he emphasized when he spoke to the largely Jewish GOP crowd in Las Vegas. There, he condemned Jewish students’ living in fear of pro-Palestinian protests on college campuses but spent far less time on free speech issues. “We will make sure those students at Cooper Union don’t have to hide in a locked library for fear of violence,” Ramaswamy said.
