Correction: Pro genocide voices.
its such a weird loop between the usa and israel. Usa taxpayers give money to israel. Some of it goes to give israelis free healthcare and university. Some of it comes back via AIPAC to usa politicians who then vote for things the israelis want. Somehow the interests of usa taxpayers aren’t considered.
American voters did support giving funds to Israel for decades. Saying that you want to cut funding for Israel was political suicide until recently.
This headline is confusing. Did they kill the bill to integrate the militaries? Because the headline leads me to believe that is what happened but it doesn't make sense that pro-Israel voices would have wanted that.
You're misreading the headline because it contains a scope ambiguity:
- Pro-Israel voices win out, kill [bill to stop US-Israel military integration]
vs
- [Pro-Israel voices win out, kill bill] to stop US-Israel military integration
1 would mean that they killed a bill whose aim was to stop military integration. 2 would mean they killed a bill, and their aim in killing the bill was to stop military integration.
You're reading 2, but 1 is what the publisher meant. There was a move to integrate US and Israeli militaries. Then there was a bill to stop this integration. But that bill got killed by pro-Israel votes, so the integration is still going ahead.
It is so backward that we have to have a bill proposed to stop what isn't legal in the first place.
kill bill to stop US-Israeli military integration
Yeah, just poorly worded.
"Bill to stop US Israeli military integration killed by AIPAC funded legislators."
Fixed for accuracy.
Rep. Sara Jacobs (D-Calif.) was the only other member who spoke out in favor of Khanna’s amendment, pointing out that current laws prohibit transfers of weapons to countries committing war crimes and violating international law, but Section 224 makes no such provisions, and takes oversight away, despite what some of her colleagues were arguing on Thursday.
She raised the issue of Israeli-owned Pegasus spyware, which was blacklisted for its use against Americans. “Two administrations from both parties left it on that list, and that same company is right now trying to buy its way into the American market, fusing our defense and technology sectors together permanently,” she said.
A proposal “with no conditions in the exact area where we have already been burned (Section 224) is reckless on its own terms, and it would do it through a must-pass bill with almost no oversight and with none of the human rights conditions that govern the rest of security assistance," Jacobs added.
Still, it’s probably the Democrats’ fault somehow.
They knew all that Zionist money they took came with strings attached.
