It depends on the context Rocky GOP, but in the case of Israel,it is conservative inherently no matter how the intent is (be it some kind of regressive/dogmatic desire to support the Holy Land and protect the first chosen people or some kind of liberal desire to attempt to repay for the Holocaust) because it supports an occupation and does not leave any room for a diplomatic solution.
Freeing Palestine or trying to find a middle ground on the hand would be good case of liberal intervention since that supports ending an occupation,but there can be liberal and conservative reasonings for that too.
However, except for the last sane man who brokered the one decent peace in the Middle East and wrote Palestine: Peace Not Apartheid Jimmy Carter and Herbert Hoover, pretty much all American foreign policy has been conservative-interventionist since Grover Cleveland left the White House.
So it really shouldn't be any surprise that Warren follows suit.
The real question is how conservative-interventionist on foreign policy is she?
