U.S. Withholding Seven Weapon Systems from Israel
(JNS) Rep. Michael McCaul (R-Texas), chair of the House Foreign Affairs Committee, told Fox News on Sunday that the Biden administration has held up transfers of seven weapon systems to Israel. "What is most disturbing to me is that we're withholding weapon systems that I have signed off on and Congress has appropriated with the intent of sending those weapons to Israel....They were effectively withholding seven weapon systems." Robert Greenway, director of the Allison Center for National Security at the Heritage Foundation, wrote on X that while "Iran is rushing military gear to Hizbullah...Team Biden delays delivery of seven critical munitions appropriated by Congress to Israel." David Milstein, a former adviser to Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis's presidential campaign, wrote on X that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu was right to release a video stating that it was "inconceivable" that the Biden administration was withholding weapons from Israel. "Those who criticized him were wrong," Milstein wrote.
