Following the opening salvo in Israel’s bombardment of Iran, many members of Congress rushed to declare their support for the Jewish state. Some went further, demanding the White House defend Tel Aviv from retaliation. A small number of lawmakers criticized Israel and urged Washington to stay out of the conflict.
The article offers a set of post from US politicians calling to support Israel and even a regime change. It also points out that a handful of lawmakers did oppose the Israeli strikes. Like Rep. Massie, who was the only member of Congress to point out that the attack Israel launched on Friday was an offensive war of aggression.
Let Israel fight their own war. They can’t do shit without our backing. I don’t care if they survive. They are genocidal maniacs and I want to see them put in their place. Of course, that’s not the opinion of our “leaders.” Sigh.
