Democrats to Israel: Drop Dead
/House leadership drops funding provision for Israel’s missile defense system
A group of far-left lawmakers — including Reps. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY), Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.) and Rashida Tlaib (D-Mich.) — forced House Democratic leadership Tuesday to cut $1 billion for Israel’s Iron Dome from a short-term government funding bill.
The money will be restored by coming back as either a stand-alone bill or being included in another spending bill, symbolic acts are just the: they’re intended to send a message, and the radical left sent that message, loud and clear, to their own party and the country: the days of American support for Israel are numbered. The more important message was that intended for their fellow Democrats alone: we’re on the ascendency, and will soon run this shop. I’m surprised they didn’t break into song, especially that one by a native of Omar the bigamist’s adopted state:
Come senators, congressmen
Please heed the call
Don't stand in the doorway
Don't block up the hall
For he that gets hurt
Will be he who has stalled
The battle outside ragin'
Will soon shake your windows
And rattle your walls
For the times they are a-changin'
