This week, the Senate votes to "disapprove" some arms sales to Israel. Here's why that's the right move for Senators who care about US foreign policy and about Israel.
Pretty simple actually - if Hamas and Hezbollah support this - and the vast majority of Israelis across the spectrum are against it - then you know exactly where you stand
Why did JStreet call for a ceasefire and hostage deal even before the death of Sinwar? I thought you wanted a two state solution! How can you have a two state solution without destroying Hamas?
Thank you Jeremy for having the courage to say out loud what so many of us think.
This is my first comment, so among other things, I'm about to find out if it's possible to encode HTML links. The six resolutions are <a href="https://www.congress.gov/bill/118th-congress/senate-joint-resolution/111">S.J.Res. 111</a> through <a href="https://www.congress.gov/bill/118th-congress/senate-joint-resolution/116">S.J.Res. 116</a>. You can change the last digit of the URL to see any of the resolutions. Summaries are not available, but the texts are very short. Each has a single one or two-sentence paragraph listing the items disapproved of.
That didn't work as I hoped. The resolutions are
S.J.Res 111: https://www.congress.gov/bill/118th-congress/senate-joint-resolution/111
S.J.Res 112: https://www.congress.gov/bill/118th-congress/senate-joint-resolution/112
S.J.Res 113: https://www.congress.gov/bill/118th-congress/senate-joint-resolution/113
S.J.Res 114: https://www.congress.gov/bill/118th-congress/senate-joint-resolution/114
S.J.Res 115: https://www.congress.gov/bill/118th-congress/senate-joint-resolution/115
S.J.Res 116: https://www.congress.gov/bill/118th-congress/senate-joint-resolution/116
They are basically the same except for the list of items disapproved of.
Thanks for listing these out Joel.
Shameful on Jstreet and Bernie Sanders
