Earlier this week, the Democrats stripped away $1 billion in funding for Israel’s Iron Dome, which is their defense system that they have in place to shoot down rockets that are fired at them.
This has to have been a big thing for it to be stripped from the bill. I wonder just how many Democrats were against the bill and the funding?
Well, now we know that it was all for show apparently because the bill ended up passing with overwhelming support. In fact, the vote was 420 yes votes, 9 no votes, and 2 “present” votes.
The no’s came from the idiots that you would expect like Ilhan Omar, Rashida Tlaib, Ayanna Pressley, and others. You’ll notice I didn’t mention Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez in that group, and that’s not by accident. She actually didn’t vote “no” on this bill. She was actually one of the 2 “present” votes.
Then she pretended to be so upset and possibly even crying over it.

Now, I don’t like the fact that our government gives our money away to foreign countries, but I’m sure that when it comes to Israel, it’s not as though we don’t get anything in return for it.
But this notion that the Democrats feigned hatred about was the defense system that Israel uses to defend itself from attacks like Hamas.
If Israel did not have the Iron Dome, thousands upon thousands of men, women, and children would all be dead.
Even if you bought into the stupidity of the Democrats who allege that Israel is guilty of “war crimes, human rights abuses, and violence” and that they were a “violent apartheid system” as Rashida Tlaib claims, this has nothing to do with arming them to attack anyone. This is about them defending themselves.
If anyone has the smallest bit of a brain in their liberal heads, they would notice that Israel only fires back when they’re attacked! I mean what the heck do they expect to happen when they’re being attacked?
