This moment demands a reset. J Street is calling for the U.S. to end unconditional financial military subsidies to Israel and to move towards a relationship where we treat Israel like any other ally.
J Street supports:
โ Phasing out taxpayer-funded military aid by 2028, when the current agreement ends.
โ Ensuring Israel can defend itself, by selling โ not subsidizing โ the weapons it needs, including Iron Dome.
โ Enforcing U.S. law on how American arms are used, including withholding certain weapons when those laws are not met.
Why now? The current U.S. aid agreement expires in 2028. This is the moment to chart a smarter path forward. At the same time, after the devastation in Gaza and ongoing suffering in the West Bank, it is clear that the status quo is no longer sustainable.
Israel is strong, prosperous and capable of paying for its defense. Treating Israel as an exception and supplying it with a blank check worth billions has made support for the country more divisive and less sustainable.
Simply put, the U.S. should treat Israel like any other partner. The normalization of this relationship doesnโt weaken the alliance โ it strengthens it, protects democracy and secures long-term bipartisan support.
@abrecher@moizali A lot of words, a lot of nonsense. What do you mean Palestinian rule? You mean the Ottomans? Or the British?
Maybe you're referring to the pogroms in the West Bank by Radical Jewish Terrorists zip-tying people's genitalia?
Care to comment on those?
@moizali Free the world from *Radical Jewish Terror* - whether JDL targeting Nerdeen Kiswani in New York, settlers in the West Bank, rapist guards in Sde Teiman, false flag drone attacks on Cyprus, or the wanton killing of civilians in Gaza, Lebanon and Iran! No more!
Trump: We went to war because of Israel.
Rubio: We went to war because of Israel.
Joe Kent: We went to war because of Israel.
Democratic pundits: ITโS A CRAZY CONSPIRACY THEORY TO SAY WE WENT TO WAR BECAUSE OF ISRAEL
