Elizabeth Warren finally answered CFR's questions, and it's bad. The section on Palestine is a mess. She calls for a fortification of NATO, "containing" China, Russia, and Cuba on Venezuela, and she says something racist about population growth in Africa.

To be fair, Sanders said this during the climate forum and was rightly criticized for it.
Bernie Sanders also released his answers to CFR. The parts about increasing pressure on Russia & working w/ Saudi Arabia are not good. The part about North Korea is stronger than Warren's, as is his reference to colonialist/imperialist history in Africa. cfr.org/article/bernie…
And his section on Palestine is also a bit of a mess, although not as bad as Warren's, since he calls for conditioning military aid (a low bar). Warren's answers overall are more hawkish, but everyone needs to be better on war and militarism.
And to be clear, CFR's questions are racist and right-wing and horrible.
