Senate Foreign Relations Committee Chairman Ben Cardin (D-MD) introduced an Oct 17 resolution with Ranking Member James Risch (R-ID) that reaffirmed "American support for Israel and Israel's 'right to defend itself.' This resolution states, "Israel has an inherent right to defend itself against attacks from Iran and its proxies — before, during, and after they occur."
Cardin stated, "I support President Biden's ironclad commitment to Israel's security, and his Administration taking steps necessary to aid Israel in the last several days as it prepared for this attack. The United States will continue to stand with Israel... [and] I strongly caution Iranian regime leaders to not widen this already ill-conceived attack. Such escalation, especially targeting U.S. personnel and assets, should be dealt with swiftly and decisively."
Despite an overwhelming call by the American people for the U.S. to stop backing Israel’s genocide campaign in Gaza, U.S. politicians are prioritizing the demands of a foreign entity — Israel — over the interests of the U.S. population. Why? For decades, the Zionist lobby has bought out politicians to pass legislation solidifying U.S. support for Israel. Understanding the Zionist lobby machine is imperative for the liberation of Palestine. This resource page identifies some of the largest players in the Zionist settler-colonial project.
