What was looked for, and what came back

What the first search did return, on the other questions

The card's claim is about what the United States sends, and that question came back empty. These questions did return material. It is reproduced word for word so nothing found is lost, and it is context rather than a position on U.S. weapons or money. Em dashes are rendered as hyphens to satisfy house style; no wording is changed.

### Characterization of the conflict In his 2026 U.S. Senate campaign policy materials, Chew characterized the threat facing Israel and the plight of Palestinians primarily through the lens of Iranian state sponsorship of terrorism. He stated that Iran is "hell-bent on complete genocide of Jews and the destruction of Israel - and Christians".

He further described Iranian proxy groups, including Hamas and Hezbollah, as "the chief funder of terrorists" and "the worst enemy of the Palestinian people," stating that these groups "have kept millions of Palestinians in poverty and regularly use them as human shields and sacrifices to gain world sympathy". While acknowledging these dynamics as "good reasons to contain Iran and eliminate their military capabilities," Chew emphasized that U.S. foreign policy must avoid recklessness and adhere to the War Powers Act, requiring explicit Congressional authorization for foreign military actions.

The rest of what the first search returned on the questions with no answer

Each line above is the first sentence of what the first search returned for that question. Where it said more after that sentence, the whole passage is reproduced here word for word, so the qualification stands on the record alongside the finding. Em dashes are rendered as hyphens to satisfy house style; no wording is changed.

### U.S. military aid and weapons to Israel There is no public record or official campaign statement from Robert Chew specifically addressing U.S. military aid or weapons transfers to Israel.

### Rhetoric and lobbying There is no public record of Robert Chew making statements or taking actions regarding Israel-related political lobbying, advocacy organizations, or domestic political rhetoric surrounding the issue.

### Safety and antisemitism In his 2026 campaign platform materials, Chew referenced anti-Jewish existential threats in a foreign policy context, writing that the Iranian regime is seeking the "complete genocide of Jews". Aside from this commentary regarding international state-sponsored threats against Jewish people, there are no documented public statements or policy proposals from Chew directly addressing domestic antisemitism or local community safety issues.
