One month before the Iowa caucuses kick off the Democratic primary, foreign policy is suddenly playing a central role in the wake of a rising crisis in the Middle East.
Long-simmering tensions between Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders and former Vice President Joe Biden -- and starkly different worldviews -- are coming into sharper view. Sanders has renewed his criticism of Biden's 2002 Iraq vote, while other Democratic contenders, including Sen. Amy Klobuchar and former South Bend, Indiana, mayor Pete Buttigieg, are calling the Iraq war a mistake as they delivered implicit criticisms of the former vice president.
For the last year, the Democratic primary fight has largely been driven by a conversation on domestic matters, from the expansion of health care to college affordability and minimum wage.
