Randy Fine, JD Vance, and the Republican crack over Israel
A Florida backbencher defends Israel's right to use 'any means necessary' against Iran. The vice president quietly draws an American red line. Inside the Republican coalition, that gap has gone live.

Desk note
Wire coverage of the Vance–Israel tension has so far clustered around the vice president's own remarks. We anchored the framing to Fine's statements as carried by Clash Report rather than to third-party paraphrase, and flagged the isolationist counter-position as a live read of the dispute rather than a settled one.
