#BlockArmstoIsrael Calling the roll. The room looks rather empty. Up to 728.5k peeps views via live feed.

#BlockArmstoIsrael Ok. #Bernie is back. He is stating that the majority of #Americans do not support more #arms to Israel. And now he is quoting stats from #JStreet poll about US Jews against more money to #Israel. "These resolutions have strong support all across this country." #Bernie on the law:

#BlockArmstoIsrael Ok. #BenCardin is confused. Maybe he should have lunch with #Bernie and discuss it further.

#BlockArmstoIsrael #SenBenCardin now speaking. And no, he doesn't support blocking arms sales. "The spotlight should be on #Hamas."

#BlockArmstoIsrael OMG! #SenKennedy now trashing #NPR tote bags and #OrganicBroccoli. How #SaturdayNightLive is watching this. This is definitely worthy material.

#BlockArmstoIsrael Oh dear. #SenJohnNKennedy is up and I'm trying to be objective. Here we go. "There are people who want to kill us and drink our blood out of a boot." Have a feeling this is gonna be on #TikTok soon. He's counting on #Israel to create a regime change in #Iran.

#BlockArmstoIsrael #PeterWelch: "The question before us is what is the right thing to do with its ally #Israel?" He is calling for two secure states. Giving more arms would harm the goals for #TwoStateSolution.

#BlockArmstoIsrael #SenPeterWelch is speaking. 43,000 people have been killed. 60-70% of #Gaza infrastructure has been destroyed. "I believe that the continuation of military ops in Gaza" will threaten the #Hostages and "What is going to happen to the families who will continue under bombardment."

#BlockArmstoIsrael #SenChuckSchumer is stating this is about "Israel's long term security." Invoking #Israel's "democracy." Ok. Well, years ago, #Schumer also quoted the #Bible like it was a factoid."

#BlockArmstoIsrael #SenTedBudd of NC speaking. "Israel is carrying out this mission with precision, thanks to weapons from the United States." Stating "all these resolutions should be soundly defeated." Would love 2 know where some of these #Repubs stand on the rising #ChristianNationalist movement.

#BlockArmstoIsrael #VanHollen being explicit about the recalcitrance of #Netanyahu, regarding a #TwoStateSolution,
#Settlements, and more. "There needs to be a two way street. Just meet the requirements of American law."

#BlockArmstoIsrael #VanHollen is totally calling out false equivalencies. 3000 #Palestinians under arrest not allowed to be seen by #RedCross. #Knesset banning #UNRWA.
#VanHollen has spoken with the families of #IsraeliHostages.
They are clear abt how #Netanyahu has abandoned their families.

#BlockArmstoIsrael Yup. #VanHollen quoting #Haaretz articles & their editorial abt #EthnicCleansing. Now relating statements abt #humanitarian groups calls to international govts to stop sending offensive weapons to #Israel. 500 cases of incidents where US weapons were used. They are "Under review."

#BlockArmstoIsrael #VanHollen is sticking 2 his argument of #American laws being ignored. Calls 4 "aid to #Gaza" are being explicitly ignored by #IsraeliGovernment. Quoting the #ForeignAssistanceAct. Long list of items that needed to be met. 8 #NGOS put together a scorecard. Results? Israel FAILED.

#BlockArmstoIsrael #SenChrisVanHollen isn't buying #Graham's comments. "US interests must be respected."
He's rejecting the broad brush #Graham used to speak against the offensive arms. #VonHollen is insisting that #Bibi has consistently ignored #US requests and laws. #DoubleStandard

#BlockArmstoIsrael #LindseyGraham insisting "It's not about #Bibi." His goal is to "rebuild #Gaza with dignity." Claiming that "we have a moment in time" and this resolution "is not the proper response." Oy.

#BlockArmstoIsrael #LindseyGraham positing that #SaudiArabia holds the key to a new Middle East. He wants to work with #Biden and #Trump to build a new political horizon. "This is not a #Bibi problem." Uh, I bet that @nyc4kaplan.bsky.social wouldn't agree.....

#BlockArmstoIsrael #LindseyGraham talking about how great #SaudiArabia has become. "It allows women to drive and go out to dinner without men." 🤪 Presently he is showing photos of #Hiroshima. "And now we have two democracies, #Germany and #Japan.

#BlockArmstoIsrael Oh no. #LindseyGraham is up. Don't know if I can stomach it. Pulling in the #Holocaust, #Nazis, and weaponizing #Jewish suffering in his comments. Talking about the #PalestinianAuthority as a bunch of old corrupt guys. Wondering if he sees the irony in that statement.

#BlockArmstoIsrael Looks like #SenJamesRisch from Idaho is speaking. Pulling the "far left" into his comments. Pulling up old tropes about money #Biden "released to #Iran." Ok. So we have one Repub and one Dem speaking against the resolutions. And while Risch is at, he is trashing #Biden.

#BlockArmstoIsrael #JackyRosen is speaking now. Stating that "Our commitment to #Israel must be ironclad." Mentioning #Iran and pre-emptive attacks in #Lebanon. "I know many of you are torn. You want to do the right thing." "I Urge all of you to vote no on all three resolutions."
