Rubio’s position to stand with Israel has been at the forefront of his campaign.
Rubio said he wants to strengthen the U.S.-Israeli alliance, while his opponent Donald Trump says he wants to remain neutral.
During Thursday’s debate, Rubio pointed that out, “The policy Donald has outlined -- I don't know if he realizes -- is an anti-Israeli policy. There is no peace deal possible with the Palestinians at this moment. There just isn't because there's no one to negotiate with.”
On Trump’s website he says he is very pro-Israel but says if there is no level of neutrality, the Palestinians will never come to the negotiating table.
