“I think every part of this is unconstitutional, stupid and crazy, but that’s the nature of voting, politics and lobbying in this U.S. government. Everyone who voted ‘Yes’ on this should be voted out of office. The House of Representatives passed an amendment (315 to 108) to the National Defense Authorization Act that says ‘It is the policy of the United States to take all necessary steps to ensure that Israel possesses and maintains an independent capability to remove existential threats to its security and defend its vital national interests.’ This amendment provides Israel with important benefits that the 50 states get, but without paying any of the costs.”
