Far-Left Democrats Force Funds for Israel’s Iron Dome Out of Funding Bill

[surada]

Why are we paying for their defense????

Good question.. There are no US bases in Israel nor any US soldiers. We couldn't stage the invasion of Iraq from Israel even though Israel promoted it.

The internet at your fingertips, and this is what you came up with. Geesh! ( Oh, yes, blame Israel for GWB wanting to take revenge against Iraq, and talking about attacking Iraq since he first took office in January 2000)

U.S.-ISRAEL RELATIONS

The United States was the first country to recognize Israel as a state in 1948, and the first to recognize Jerusalem as the capital of Israel in 2017. Israel is a great partner to the United States, and Israel has no greater friend than the United States. Americans and Israelis are united by our shared commitment to democracy, economic prosperity, and regional security. The unbreakable bond between our two countries has never been stronger.

A long-standing U.S. priority is to promote a comprehensive and lasting solution to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. The United States is also committed to encouraging increased cooperation and normalization of ties between Israel and Arab and Muslim majority states, as exemplified by the Abraham Accords and normalization agreements between Israel and the United Arab Emirates, Bahrain, Morocco and Sudan.

U.S. Security Cooperation with Israel

Israel’s security is a long-standing cornerstone of U.S. foreign policy. The United States’ commitment to Israel’s security is supported by robust defense cooperation and the 10-year, $38 billion Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) signed by the United States and Israel in 2016. Consistent with the MOU, the United States annually provides $3.3 billion in Foreign Military Financing and $500 million for cooperative programs for missile defense.

In addition to security assistance, the United States participates in a variety of exchanges with Israel, including joint military exercises, research, and weapons development. Further, through the annual Joint Counterterrorism Group and regular strategic dialogues, the United States and Israel work together to counter a range of regional threats.

Speak not of what you know not.

Biden is not a Nazi, never has been.

Why so many of you prefer an Authoritarian Dictatorship, as attempted by the Republicans for the past 5 years, and continue to speak of Israel in the same breath?

Israel is a Democracy. It had to take the best that was being offered it by the Trump Administration, but becoming a Dictatorship would not have been Israel's wish for the US.

Israel has survived the Arab States war on it, Iran's war on it, the endless lies about it.

It will survive for now without this budget until it can be properly worded out in the future, or borrowed from any other country.

Everyone, stop turning this into a Republicans and Democrats, this and that.

The Far left, Omar et al, does not represent the Democratic party, no matter how many short victories against Israel they do achieve

Biden is worse than a Nazi. I apologize for misspeaking. He is a mentally unwell man who needs to resign because he is pissing off the baraccudas who look down on infecting states that did not vote for him with covid strains from other countries who are getting rid of their problem people by sending them to the Texas border.

His popularity is going negative for his revenge schemas.

Nothing but a load of crap. But it is your crap.

Not one of you is discussing what difference that loan would make to Israel, if any, and the Iron Dome and what Israel should do, or think of doing.

Nothing but a load of crap. But it is your crap.

So you think Obama should get a pass for committing treason because he is black. How reverse racist of you.

I think the man should be tried for complicity in orchestrating the beginning of America's civil war that is still going on in areas he still influences to kill businesses and create total anarchy. The Constitution calls for a peaceful transition of power. Obama canceled that his last week in office.

On September 27, the cancel Congress is going to pass Pelosi's mega bill that proposes to kick the founder's wise Constitution and replace voting that already stinks to high heaven and now will become the criminal left's pathway to shitting on voter decisions and replace the majority decision process with a tyrannical One party nation so AOC will achieve her ambition to never account for her railroading anarchy against America.

Enough is enough. Leftist calumny becomes treason if we let this superspreading criminal bill pass.

To give the Democrats sole power to dictate life and death will result in genocide of people who believe in God as Jews. AOC and her buddies want to cancel all Jews and are making the same mistake Hitler made when he allowed the Muslim mayor of Jerusalem to dictate the elimination of Jewish presence in Europe in exchange for Hitler's agreement to help the Muslims to mass murder the Jewish folk in Asia and Africa. That didn't happen because an American, General Dwight D. Eisenhower led Allied nations to defeat the Nazis and their allies who mainly made themselves scarce when Berlin fell.

It is a lesson in what happens to one party societies who have a lot of power. You all need to pay attention on September 27. Crazy Nancy is just sick enough to order Americans shot to death sans trials when she gets her grubs on more power as Speaker. She is going to be a dangerous leader if the Sept. 27 kill bill passes. God please save us from the evil Democrats. Amen.

Your thoughts are the result of the articles you read and the shows you choose to watch. That you are getting despaired because of what you read and watch is very clear.

I prefer to read and watch other sources. And I do not get the extremism against Israel that you are getting.


I am all for criticizing Omar, Tlaib and the others who are working against the US continuing to be an ally of Israel. They will not succeed in doing so, no matter what they do, and no matter what small victories, just like BDS, they achieve.

Let us not go on a tangent against all Democrats because of the very few amongst them.

As I put it before, Israel has survived this long and will continue to survive, even without the 1 Billion in Iron Dome help, for now.

The Start Up country which created the Iron Dome will think of something, will get help from other countries, or will see that money come it from the US sooner than one can think.

President Joe Biden also pledged to replenish Israel’s stock, bucking calls from some progressive lawmakers to reduce military aid to Israel.

Far-Left Democrats Force Funds for Israel’s Iron Dome Out of Funding Bill​

Far-Left Democrats Force Funds for Israel's Iron Dome Out of Funding Bill

The far-left Democrats forced out provisions to fund Israel's Iron Dome from the continuing resolution, according to reports.

www.breitbart.com

21 Sep 2021 ~~ By Jacob Bliss
The far-left Democrats forced out provisions to fund Israel’s Iron Dome from the continuing resolution (CR) that would keep the government funded and raise the debt ceiling, according to reports.
According to Army Technology, “Iron Dome provides defence[sic] against short-range missiles and rockets which pose a threat to the civilian population,” such as those fired from Gaza earlier this year.
Due to there not being enough votes to pass the CR as a result of pushback from far-left Democrats, a Politico reporter claimed that House Democrats were forced to remove the Iron Dome provisions to pass the measure.
Before the provisions were taken out, reports confirmed that far-left Democrats told the Democrat leadership they would not vote for the bill if it included the $1 billion funding for the Iron Dome, which caused the Rules Committee to go into recess.

​

The CR has been revised with the Iron Dome provision taken out.
The far-left members leading this effort have been Reps. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY), Ilhan Omar (D-MN), and Rashida Tlaib (D-MI). House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) cannot have any opposition in her party if she hopes to pass anything due to her thin majority in the House.
Pelosi has already been facing opposition from the Republicans, who have said they will not vote from the CR due to the provision to raise the debt ceiling in the bill.
Rep. Pramila Jayapal (D-WA), the head of the far-left Congressional Progressive Caucus, will reportedly meet with Pelosi on Tuesday.
There was funding in the bill to replace the missiles used from the Iron Done in May from the Hamas attack on the Jewish state. Bloomberg reported the Defense Department asked in a classified supplemental request of $1 billion.

Comment:
Israel was totally abandoned by the USA the very moment that the Progressive Marxist/DSA Democrat Leftist coup d' etat by against President Trump succeeded.
It's truly a pity that so many Jews in America are proud Democrats the antithesis of the State of Israeli. Unfortunately these are the same Jews who are so far Left that they're now Holocaust Deniers.
The PM/DSA Democrat Left Party bosses are enemies of America, Christianity. and now they’re anti-Semites too.
The “Enemy Within” Is far more dangerous to us then our external enemies.
We must defeat the enemy within. And fast!

Israel is buying air refuel capability, building tanks, buying planes, etc. Why can't they buy what they need for the iron dome?

Why does the US and all other countries borrow money from each other?
Why don't they all make steel and all other necessities ?


Not sure if it is a matter of having what is needed to supply the Iron Dome System with the interceptors to keep the rockets from hitting anywhere in Israel.

Again, no one country on the planet is self sufficient when it comes to weapons, agriculture, etc, etc

Those rebel lawmakers did not, however, have to be the deciding votes in sinking legislation that initially had nothing to do with Israel. For this, they have Republicans to thank.

Not a single GOP member of the House agreed to vote for the legislation that would prevent a government shutdown. Democratic leadership appeared to have hoped that they would be able to pull a handful of Republicans across the aisle by attaching the Iron Dome funding to the bill, before realizing that none of them would budge and subsequently deciding to capitulate.

If this is the case, as one Democratic congressional aide speculated to ToI, Tuesday’s fiasco had little do with Israel or the Squad’s influence, but rather was yet another day of political jockeying in a deeply polarized Washington.

Hence the Republican decision to go after their Democratic colleagues for the Squad’s refusal to back legislation that they themselves never intended to support.

“While Dems capitulate to the antisemitic influence of their radical members, Republicans will always stand with Israel,” House Minority leader Kevin McCarthy tweeted.

Asked if Tuesday’s drama — described by AFP as “a storm in a teacup” — changed her belief that the Democratic Party is “overwhelmingly pro-Israel,” Soifer replied, “It doesn’t change anything.”

Nice Republican Trash talk.

No, the Jews vote for Democrats because the Democrats are for CIvil Rights, the Rule of Law, the Constitution of the United States and keeping the US a Democracy, rather than turning it into a Authocracy, which has been the way the Republicans have been leaning towards for the past 20 years. The same with African Americans.


Now, stay on topic of this thread if you can.

Liberal Jews are VERY confused. They vote for the Party that has no regard for Israel and no regard for religion. That is why Hassidic and Messianic Jews are not nearly as liberal, the latter being very conservative. It is the secular Jews who are Jewish by race, not by religion, that have been fooled. Unfortunately, that is a large population.

Spread your toxic garbage somewhere else. You wrote nothing but lies.

Jews are not a "race". Never have been. The rest of your garbage is as toxic as that sentence intent on delegitimizing Jews in general and inciting others against them.

They see themselves almost as such. They often marry other Jews, etc. I think the term is a cluster vs race. Regardless, I am not disparaging them for this in any way, just stating a statistical fact regarding how they vote. The non-religious Jewish people are doing themselves no favors by voting for Democrats if they want to preserve Israel and not be racially profiled. Clearly, the Democratic party does not support Israel. The Squad is indicative of this. Not only do they not support Israel, but they are also very much against Jews.

Clearly, again, you are wrong. I will not waste anymore time in what you clearly have decided to be the truth.
