Nearly the entire Republican Senate conference came together to denounce President Biden's administration for what they describe as a 'partial arms embargo against Israel.' Virtually all Senate Republicans signed a letter demanding that the Biden administration immediately stop withholding weapons from Israel. The letter, led by Senator Tom Cotton and signed by 48 Republican senators, argues that the Biden-Harris administration's actions have left Israel exposed and emboldened its enemies, including Iran. The senators urge the administration to stop accommodating Iran and its terrorist allies. Senator Dan Sullivan emphasized the need for unequivocal support for Israel, criticizing the administration's fear of escalation.
