Pentagon is requesting an additional $50B from Congress to defend Israel

Started at $50B, jacked up to $200B, now trying to seem reasonable at $100B

We must cut ties with Israel. Now.

We don't need to cut them off but we do need to stop picking up their tab. They're deliberately trying to undermine the ceasefire and harming our national interests.

Israel keeps losing and losing. But the genocide addiction must be continually fed.


US funding for Israel’s Iron Dome air defense system used to enjoy bipartisan support. Not anymore.

A growing number of leading progressives, including the leading liberal pro-Israel lobby, have come out against continued American funding for Israel’s Iron Dome defense system.

J Street president Jeremy Ben-Ami on Sunday joined Reps. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Ro Khanna, along with Jewish Democratic congressional challenger Brad Lander, in opposing future budget earmarks for Israeli defense systems.

Such funding was relatively uncontroversial in the past, as the Iron Dome rocket interceptor has drawn near-unanimous praise — including from some of the figures now opposing its U.S. support — for its role in protecting Israeli civilians. As recently as September, a bill to approve Iron Dome supplemental funding passed in the House with only nine dissenting votes.
