US Support for Israel Passes 412-10

[Ron]

Remember these 10 House members that voted no - who seem to love Hamas and their standards.  How they forgot about 9-11 and what happened.  Wonder what these people will say when another attack hits Europa and the US, with the radicals going after Western Civilization.

The good thing is that 412 do understand what it means! Congrats.


412-10, House passes resolution affirming support for Israel.

9 Democrats voted NO: Tlaib, Bush, Bowman, Carson, Green of Texas, AOC, Lee of PA, Ramirez, Omar
1 Republican NO: Massie
6 “present” votes: Jayapal, Castro, Velazquez, Casar, Garcia of IL, Pressley,


Ten House members, including one Republican, opposed a resolution on Wednesday that declared support for Israel—the first measure to pass under the new leadership of Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA). The bill asserts that the House “stands with Israel as it defends itself against the barbaric war launched by Hamas and other terrorists” and “reaffirms Israel’s right to self-defense.” The four-page resolution also condemned “Hamas’ brutal war” and urged Hamas “to immediately cease these violent attacks and safely release all living hostages.” Nine Democrats voted “no”: Reps. Jamaal Bowman (NY), André Carson (IN), Cori Bush (MO), Al Green (TX), Summer Lee (PA), Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (NY), Ilhan Omar (MN), Delia Ramirez (IL), and Rashida Tlaib (MI). Rep. Thomas Massie (R-KY) also joined, writing on social media that the measure would “call for sanctions on a foreign country” and force “an open-ended promise of military support that is so broad.” Six other Democrats opted to vote “present”: Reps. Greg Casar (TX), Joaquin Castro (TX), Jesús Garcia (IL), Pramila Jayapal (WA), Ayanna Pressley (MA), and Nydia Velázquez (NY).

Not surprised that the antisemitic members of "The Squad" voted no.

The ones who voted "present" are even bigger cowards.

I realize there is a difference between going to war and supporting a Israel, but considering that:

Gulf War (1991): The Authorization for Use of Military Force Against Iraq Resolution of 1991 was passed on January 12, 1991. In the House of Representatives, the vote was 250-183, and in the Senate, it was 52-47.

Iraq War (2003): The Authorization for Use of Military Force Against Iraq Resolution of 2002 was passed on October 11, 2002. In the House of Representatives, the vote was 296-133, and in the Senate, it was 77-23.

412-10 is pretty good.
