      I guarantee the vast majority of Americans would prefer this.

      But the puppets we’re forced to put into power only listen to those who force us, i.e. Israel.

      The assholes controlling the US have far more to gain financially by supporting Israel instead of the Ukraine.

      My first thought too. I wonder if it’s a clause specific to Israel or if it can even be applied to Ukraine? Maybe they’re testing the waters with the Israel thing, then if that goes through then they’ll do the same thing with Ukraine and anybody that opposes it is also “blocking aid to Israel”?

          Not in the detail I would have liked. So declaring it an immidiate risk to US security is seemingly possible, but what are the standards there? Who can check the justification? What pre-defined guidelines for such an assessment exist?

            Congress wrote the law and those particulars I am not aware of, but clearly it would be up to Congress to verify the justifications.

          How in the Sweet Jesus is a regional group only interested in a regional conflict more of a national security threat than Russia whose publicly said they want to invade a NATO country next?

          Is someone out there rooting for nukes?
