NYC Dems’ silence on Biden’s betrayal of Israel is pathetic

How about that: President Biden betrays Israel, and most of New York City’s congressional Democrats try not to take a firm stand.

It’s no surprise that radical Reps. Jamaal Bowman and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez cheered Biden’s pause in much military aid, nor that Rep. Ritchie Torres damned it.

And Nassau’s Tom Suozzi wound up on the right side.

But most of the rest — even including Brooklyn’s Sen. Chuck Schumer, that self-declared guardian of Israel — are laying low.

Bowman (D-Bronx/Westchester) at least read Biden correctly, tweeting “Protesting is working”; AOC’s “Biden has not ‘lost his mind’” looks a bit over-optimistic.

Torres got it exactly right: “As the leader of the free world, America cannot claim that its commitment to Israel is ‘iron-clad’ and then proceed to withhold aid from Israel.”
