Senate Rejects Israel Arms Block, Democratic Support Grows
The U.S. Senate rejected two resolutions from Senator Bernie Sanders that aimed to block a $675 million bomb sale and the transfer of 20,000 assault rifles to Israel amid the Gaza conflict. Over half of Senate Democrats supported the measures, a record level that marks a significant shift compared to previous votes in April and November. Many Democrats cited opposition to Prime Minister Netanyahu's management of the war and the humanitarian crisis in Gaza as reasons for their votes. The votes occurred against a backdrop of international criticism of Israel, reports of famine in Gaza, and new polls indicating declining American support for Israel's military actions. All Senate Republicans opposed the resolutions, but analysts say the votes signal growing scrutiny of U.S. military aid to Israel. Observers warn that future arms transfers could face greater resistance if civilian suffering in Gaza continues.
