“what we have brought forward tonight is a House-passed, stand-alone package of aid for Israel. We didn't bring forward the entire security package, which already failed. We have tried that. It didn't work. So many of my colleagues across the aisle, indeed, spoke eloquently in support of Ukraine as well as Israel. I think back to what my college track coach said. He said: Don't tell me. Show me. So I am going to quote some words from the Democratic Party, and I want you to think about the words lining up with the actions. When people vote against the stand-alone aid for Israel, is that consistent with their own words? This is Secretary Blinken on October 13: No country can tolerate having a terrorist group come in, slaughter its people in the most unconscionable ways and live like that. What Israel is doing is not retaliation, it is defending the lives of its people. Next is Secretary Austin on October 20: So, make no mistake: The United States will make sure that Israel has what it needs to defend itself. Next, President Biden on October 10: So, in this moment, we must be crystal clear: We stand with Israel. He says it again. We stand with Israel, and we will make sure Israel has what it needs to take care of its citizens, defend itself, and respond to this attack. Again, President Biden on 20 October: In Israel, we must make sure that they have what they need to protect their people today and always.…”
