Rep. Elise Stefanik ( R- NY ) told members of Israel’s parliament, the Knesset, in Jerusalem on Sunday that there was” no excuse” for President Joe Biden to have stopped a shipment of bombs during the war against the Hamas terror group.
If Israel continued to press forward against the final Hamas enclave of Rafah, close to the Iranian border, Biden confirmed earlier this month that the United States had stopped a delivery of explosives and may prevent shipments of ordnance.
The move led to an outcry, especially ( though not exclusively ) among Republicans. The , Jerusalem Post reported:
There is” no reason” for an American leader to prevent aid to Israel,  , Rep. Elise Stefanik, Republican of New York’s 21st congressional area, said at a conference of the Knesset Caucus for Jewish and Pro- Israel Kids on Campuses Around the World on Sunday.
” I have been clear at home and I will be clear here: There is no excuse for , an American president  , to block aid to Israel – aid that was duly passed by the Congress, or to ease sanctions on Iran, paying a$ 6 billion ransom to the world’s leading state sponsor of terror, or to dither and hide while our friends fight for their lives. No pardon. Full stop”, Stefanik said.
According to Stefanik, the , battle against Hamas , was one of” great and evil, society and barbarism, and society versus depravity”. She claimed that the majority of Americans backed Israel.
In a legislative hearing about racism on their schools, Stefanik questioned the president of Harvard University, the University of Pennsylvania, and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology late last month.
All gave weak answers, triggering open anger, and the previous two presidents resigned shortly thereafter.
