Far-left legislators pressured house Democrats in the United States to remove a provision in the 2022 Budget Bill providing $1 Billion in funding to replenish Israel’s Iron Dome.
After the funding from Israel was removed, H.R. 5305 passed the House of Representatives in a 220-211 vote late Tuesday night.
The Jewish State’s “Iron Dome” is designed to protect Israeli citizens and communities from incoming rocket attacks. Earlier this year, the Iron Dome system guarded civilians against 4,300 rockets fired by Hamas and other Gaza terror organizations. The highly effective system destroyed 90% of the missiles fired toward populated areas, including Tel Aviv and Jerusalem, according to the Israeli Military.
Although a spokesperson for the Appropriations Committee Chairwoman Rosa DeLauro stated that the funds for Israel would likely be instead included in the 2022 defense Bill at a later date, many are still not assured.
Amir Tsarfati of Behold Israel stated that although some are attempting to make the move appear to be a technicality, when you get down to brass tacks the move is plainly anti-Israel.
“Everybody says it’s technical reasons but what we know is that woke progressive liberal democrats demanded that help for Israel not be included in the coming bill of budget of the united states for the coming year.”
Pelosi was pressured to remove the provision of Israeli funding by Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, Betty McCollum, Rashida Tlaib, Ilhan Omar, Ayanna Pressley, and Pramila Jayapal. This moved was dubbed by Republican lawmakers as yet another example of blatant anti-Israel Bias on the part of far-left democrats.
Congressmen such as Rashida Tlaib and Ilhan Omar have faced much criticism for anti-semitic comments and actions in the past.
Ilhan Omar was named 2019’s anti-semite of the year by stopantisemitism.org for her outrageous comments including alleging that Jews buy their influence with money, infamously stating “It’s all about the Benjamins,” support of the BDS movement, and submitting a resolution in the House of Representatives comparing boycotting Israel to boycotting the Nazis, according to Jerusalem Post.

I'm sure this is going to turn out well for the US.....Or maybe not. What was that the Lord said about blessing and cursing with respect to gentile treatment of the Jews.
Oh yea brace for it - especially if this makes Israel vulnerable. The middle east adversaries have to be thinking that the time to attack Israel is now or very soon
Hello Scott
Without the iron dome, God Himself will have to intervene - the enemies attackers of Israel have no idea what horrific disaster they bring upon themselves.
