İsrail’e yardımı kesme önergesine Demokratların yarısı evet dedi

Summary · AI generated

ABD Temsilciler Meclisi, Çarşamba günü Dışişleri Bakanlığı ödeneğinden İsrail’e yönelik 3,3 milyar dolarlık yardımı çıkarmayı amaçlayan bir önergeyi 314’e karşı 104 oyla reddetti. Cumhuriyetçi Thomas Massie tarafından sunulan değişiklik teklifine destek veren vekillerin neredeyse tamamı Demokrat’tı ve parti grubunun yarısından fazlası önerge lehinde oy kullandı. Oy çoğunluğu sağlanamasa da, bu sonuç özellikle Gazze’deki askerî harekâtlar karşısında Demokratlar arasında istikrarlı olan İsrail’e koşulsuz desteğin çatırdadığına işaret ediyor. Biden yönetimi önergeye karşı çıkarken, partinin ilerici kanadı Filistinli sivil kayıpları gerekçe göstererek yardımların kesilmesini savunuyor. Cumhuriyetçilerin neredeyse tamamının karşı oy kullanmasıyla bilinen netice, iki partili geleneğin sürdüğünü gösterse de, Demokratlardaki bölünme gelecekteki dış askerî yardım paketleri üzerinde daha sıkı tartışmalar yaşanabileceğine dair bir sinyal niteliğinde.

    Half of House Dems vote to end US aid to Israel

    Washington, United States

    The House of Representatives voted Wednesday to block an amendment to the National Security and State Department appropriations bill that would have struck $3.3 billion in aid to Israel. The amendment, introduced by outgoing Rep. Thomas Massie (R-Ky.), was never expected to pass given the near-unanimous opposition from Republicans. But the vote was nonetheless closely watched because of what it revealed about a growing rift among Democratic elected officials concerning the U.S-Israel relationship. In the end, the amendment failed by a vote of 104-314. A slight majority of voting Democrats – 103 out of 201 – voted in favor. Ten Democratic members voted present. The division among Democrats made it up to party leadership, with Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-N.Y.) and caucus chair Pete Aguilar (D-Calif.) opposing the measure, while Rep. Katherine Clark (D-Mass.), the minority whip, came out in favor. In a lengthy statement the day before the vote, Jeffries said that the amendment was “overly broad” because it would limit “funds for longstanding initiatives,” including refugee resettlement and peacebuilding, and that it would “restrict our country’s ability to confront Hamas, Hezbollah and other terrorist organizations.” Jeffries said he would not whip other members to vote against the amendment and acknowledged that urgent changes were needed to American policy toward Israel. Hamid Bendaas, the communications director for the Institute for Middle East Understanding policy project, told Responsible Statecraft that, while it was“unfortunate that [Jeffries] wouldn't do what the vast majority of Democrats would want their highest ranking House member to do,” it was nonetheless notable that “he is cognizant of just how dangerous his stance is to to vote against it, and he had to try to explain that as best as he could.” The Congressional Progressive Caucus endorsed the measure. In a letter Tuesday responding to Jeffries, Rep. Greg Casar (D-Texas), the CPC chair, lamented that “At a time when millions are struggling to make ends meet, we are sending billions of dollars to a military that has killed tens of thousands of civilians in Gaza, the West Bank, and Lebanon, destabilized the region, and helped lead us into war with Iran.” Casar noted that more than 98% of the funds that would have been removed by the Massie amendment was money for the Israeli military. “The American people are crying out for an end to US tax dollars subsidizing Israel’s military,” he added. Speaking on the House floor ahead of the vote, Rep. Joaquin Castro (D-Texas) added that "Words are not enough... If we hope to change Israel's behavior, we must use our leverage." This was the first congressional vote related to U.S. aid to Israel since primary elections in New York and Colorado saw a wave of progressive insurgents defeat incumbents and more establishment-aligned candidates in races that, to varying degrees, centered the future of Washington’s relationship with Israel. Polls continue to show that strong majorities of Democrats believe the U.S. is too supportive of Israel and oppose “providing additional economic and military support to Israel.” “More House members are realizing that this is a demand of their voters and not voting the right way on this, in terms of voting to cut the funding to Israel is something that leaves them vulnerable in future elections to a primary challenge,” Bendaas told RS shortly before the vote. “It's clearly people responding to political necessity, and it just shows how far this issue has moved over the last few years.”

    US Democrats turn against Israel aid

    Washington, United States

    WASHINGTON (AP) -- More than half the House Democrats voted Wednesday to strip $3.3 billion in US aid from Israel, the most substantial signal yet that once rock-solid bipartisan support for the country is disintegrating in the aftermath of its war in Gaza that has killed thousands of Palestinians. The vote tally, 104-314, was not enough to attach the amendment to a broader national security spending bill, but stands as a stark accounting of the shifting attitudes that are dividing the Democrati
