Conditioning aid to Israel is a slippery slope toward abolishing aid altogether—which has long been the objective of Israel’s leading detractors in DC.

America’s singular ally in the Middle East has suffered the single deadliest invasion in its history at the hands of Hamas, a genocidal terror threat to the Jewish State.

Now is the time for Congress to strengthen the US-Israel relationship, rather than weaken it.

The Islamic Republic of Iran, Hezbollah, and Hamas would love nothing more than to see an erosion of the US-Israel relationship.

We play into their hands not only at Israel’s peril but also our own.

2/2 But let's play this hypothetical out.

Suppose Netanyahu nuked Gaza. Would you still say Israel should get unconditional military aid? Now, I don't think Netanyahu will do that. But by this absolutist position-no conditions on aid, ever-would you still support military aid in that scenario?
In response to Anton Brakhage.
