On Thursday, May 16, the US House of Representatives approved a bill titled "Supporting Security Assistance to Israel", criticizing US President Joe Biden's recent decision to block the Zionist regime's arms shipment to Israel.
The approval of this bill in the Republican-dominated House of Representatives aims to limit the US President's ability to prevent arms transfers to Israel. This bill was approved on Thursday by a vote of 224 to 187. All 16 Democrats voted for it, including Thomas Suzy of New York, Jared Moskowitz of Florida and Josh Gottheimer of New Jersey, and only three Republicans opposed the bill.
The approval of the baby-killing Zionist regime's plan to support military aid to Israel was in response to the White House's recent threat to stop sending weapons to Israel if the regime attacked Rafah. Last week, the Biden administration had stopped the shipment of this package, consisting of 3,500 bombs worth 2,000 and 500 pounds, to Israel due to concerns that it could be used in Rafah.
While House Speaker Mike Johnson criticized the Biden administration's decision not to send this arms shipment to Israel, he welcomed the approval of this plan. Johnson said in a statement: "The Biden administration's decision to block arms shipments (to Israel) is disastrous and directly contrary to the will of Congress." Johnson called the approval of this plan "a clear message of solidarity and support for Israel" and emphasized that the US Congress has demanded the immediate delivery of defensive weapons to the country's most important ally in West Asia.
According to observers, the plan in the US House of Representatives to support security assistance to the pirate regime Israel is only a symbolic action against the Biden government's policy in the Gaza war. This plan still needs to be approved by the US Senate, where Democrats hold the majority, so it has no chance of becoming law. But the approval of this plan is unprecedented in some ways.
In addition to the Republicans, 16 Democratic representatives from the US House of Representatives also voted in favor, while 13 Democratic representatives did not participate in the vote. This plan could be seen as a sign of a deep divide in the United States regarding continued support. This divide may deepen further in the year of presidential elections.
Previously, on Tuesday, May 14, Republican Senator Tom Cotton, together with 20 other senators from his party, presented a plan to the Senate, which envisages the obligation of the White House to send all weapons that should be delivered to Israel. According to Tom Cotton's plan, which will be given and guaranteed between 2024 and 2025, payments to people who try to stop arms shipments to Israel will be cut.
Although the recent action of the US House of Representatives was carried out in support of the continuation of the Zionist regime and its crimes against the oppressed people of Gaza,This issue is important because a significant number of deputies in the House of Representatives oppose such an important decision as the transfer of arms to the occupation regime.
As a result, Republicans' claims that Biden is not committed to supporting Israel have a political dimension more than anything else, because since the beginning of the Gaza war, the USA has provided unprecedented support to the occupation regime in all kinds of ways, including weapons./
