Are You in Favor of the Biden Administration Halting Weapons Shipments to Israel?
Here’s The Scoop
The Biden administration’s recent decision to halt a vital weapons shipment to Israel has sparked fierce debate.
Republican Texas Sen. Ted Cruz lambasted Secretary of State Antony Blinken for the administration’s move, accusing them of pressuring Israel to limit its military actions against Hamas.
Blinken stated that “no one, starting with President Biden, has done more to make sure they have what they need to defend themselves from Hamas.”
His claim was met with Cruz’s incredulity and retort, “That is ludicrous! Why have you cut off weapons to Israel, then?”
Blinken defended the administration, citing a 10-year military aid guarantee negotiated during the Obama era. However, Cruz did not relent, arguing that Biden’s policies have emboldened Iran, indirectly funding the Hamas attacks.
“This administration — you and President Biden — funded the Oct. 7 [Hamas attacks against Israel] by flowing $100 billion to a homicidal, genocidal regime that funded those attacks,” Cruz asserted.
Blinken dismissed the statement as “profoundly wrong” and “disgraceful.”
The administration’s stance, underscored by President Biden’s refusal to support military operations targeting densely populated areas in Gaza, including Rafah, raises significant concerns.
As Biden reportedly told CNN, “They’re not going to get our support if, in fact, they go on these population centers.”
The debate continues as our nation grapples with the implications of these decisions on both our allies and our national security.

Generally, I’m not in favor of anything the rotten Biden admin does. This is just another example of the insanity that comes from the Biden Admin.

Senile or not. The bast*ard signed all those EO’s, so he needs to be held accountable! After all, if he is POTUS (though he cheated his way to the office), he has that authority, and therefore, needs to be held accountable for ALL his actions!! Don’t gaslight us about him being senile. If he is senile and unfit, why the hell is he still holding onto his office?

Biden is right to withhold military aid to Israel at present. Like them or don’t, civilians living in Gaza are not guilty o attacking Israel and therefore are not legitimate targets for warfare. Netanyahu’s behavior is reprehensible.

I agree with not shipping weapons to Israel a lot of what is destroying our country is from Israel. Netanyahu made a speech in 1990 in Tel Aviv where he said that the United States is the Golden Calf and US Jews who hold dual citizenship with both the US and Israel were to get into every level of our government and media for propaganda and steal America blind. And they have succeeded in getting us to furnish their military with planes and equipment, give them 3 Billion dollars every year for nothing and now we just gave them 12 and a half Billion and they want more. It is part of their Zionist Satanic plan for their one world control. Who in this country backs all evil and anti Bible policies. Remember the Bible tells us the Antichrist sits in the 3rd temple in Jerusalem and they are set now to build the 3rd temple. Remember the USS LIBERTY and if you don’t know about that watch it on the FORGOTTEN HISTORY CHANNEL on YouTube. It will be a real eye opener for you.
