DNC 1972: Palestine

The United States must be unequivocally committed to support of Israel’s right to exist within secure and defensible boundaries. Progress toward a negotiated political settlement in the Middle East will permit Israel and her Arab neighbors to live at peace with each other, and to turn their energies to internal development. Recognize and support the established status of Jerusalem as the capital of Israel, with free access to all its holy places provided to all faiths. the U.S. Embassy should be moved from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem.

DNC 1968: Palestine

As long as Israel is threatened by hostile and well-armed neighbors, we will assist her with essential military equipment needed for her defense. Lasting peace in the Middle East depends upon agreed and secured frontiers, respect for the territorial integrity of all states, a humane resettlement of the Arab refugees, and the establishment of a non-provocative military balance. To achieve these objectives, we support negotiations among the concerned parties.
