Support for Israel doesn't make him more or less progressive. There are 200 Dems in the House, 51 in the senate. Only 37 voted against aid to Israel.
the difference between Fetterman and AOC is Fetterman pretending he doesn't know why people have problem with how Israel is handling this situation.

He’s been more consistent on his support of Israel than any other Dem including the Jewish ones like Shumer. He’s shown that he is going to stand up for what he believes in even if it hurts him politically which is rare courage in D.C.

Supporting Israel doesn't hurt him politically, and you are wrong about Schumer.
Again, Fetterman took a page out of the political handbook of LBJ, pick a side and don't waiver. even If your side does bad things.
