    Thatā€™s how it is. You wouldnā€™t think so the way some members of the left attack other members of the left on Lemmy, but itā€™s always been mostly Republican support.

    Republicans refused to sign the aid bill for Ukraine, Israel, and Taiwan. They then tried to create a standalone bill for Israel, but Biden said heā€™d veto it. They only came around to signing it after the Iran retaliation.

    When Biden paused shipment of arms in order to conduct a State Department investigation of Israelā€™s acts, House Republicans drafted legislation in an attempt to force the Presidentā€™s hand to release the shipment.

    Republicans have been the primary antagonists in the Israel-Iran proxy war since it started under Reagan. Itā€™s about money and power, nothing else.

    Itā€™s also worth noting that 79% of Jewish-Americans are Democrats.
