This is the best summary I could come up with:
WASHINGTON — Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., has come out against giving about $10 billion in emergency U.S. aid to Israel as part of a national security spending bill.
The independent senator said it is appropriate for the United States to support defense systems, like the Iron Dome, to protect Israeli citizens from incoming rocket attacks.
Since negotiations over Israeli hostages collapsed last week, Israel has expanded its military campaign in Gaza, pushing into the Hamas stronghold of Khan Younis in the southern part of the strip.
Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., took a procedural step Monday evening that would set up the process for considering the national security supplemental bill.
Republicans are saying they would filibuster President Joe Biden’s aid package unless Democrats agree to tighten U.S. asylum and parole laws in immigration proceedings.
Senate Majority Whip Dick Durbin, D-Ill., warned of serious consequences if Congress fails to pass funding.
The original article contains 487 words, the summary contains 151 words. Saved 69%. I’m a bot and I’m open source!
Senate Majority Whip Dick Durbin, D-Ill., warned of serious consequences if Congress fails to pass funding.
Durbin the guy taking big donations from pro-Zionist groups. What happened to conflict of interest?
Bro I just want some more bombs, please bro come on, I won’t even do anything with them bro
The left: we only want universal health care and education! Also the left: *spends inflated billions on high performance environmentally friendly children massacring missiles.
You just read how Bernie (as lefty as they come in US) is opposing giving missiles to Israel, what the fuck are you talking about?
Bernie is center left at best, everything in the US is pretty much right wing
So we have a spare 10 billion for Israel, but not predatory studen loan debt relief for our own citizens? Sounds about right
pls, giving student loan debt relief instead of $10 billion to Israeli gov’t is considered anti-Semitic 😔
Tell that to the media. CNN headline will be like… “Antisemetic Jewish Senator Supports Terrorist Group Hamas”
