Prominent Pro-Israel Biden Donors Criticize President’s Threat to Pause Weapon Shipments to Israel
In a surprising turn of events, prominent pro-Israel donors to President Biden’s campaign have publicly criticized his recent threat to pause weapon shipments to Israel if the country invades Rafah, Hamas’ stronghold in southern Gaza. Israeli American Democratic megadonor Haim Saban and Democrat Party advocate Mark Mellman have expressed their disappointment in Biden’s decision, with Saban going as far as calling it “Bad, Bad, Bad” in an email to White House officials.
President Biden confirmed his position in a recent CNN interview, stating that he would not supply weapons historically used to deal with Rafah if Israel decides to invade. This decision has raised concerns among some Israelis and American politicians who believe Biden is pandering to the far-left and progressive base of the Democratic Party.
The situation in Rafah is dire, with Hamas terrorists and leader Yahya Sinwar using hostages as human shields to deter Israeli incursion. Saban has accused Biden of abandoning U.S. goals in supporting Israel, particularly in defeating Hamas.
As tensions rise, the House Oversight Committee has announced it will be opening an investigation into the Biden administration over the threats to withhold offensive aid from Israel. Despite multiple requests for comment from Fox News Digital, the White House has not yet responded.
This latest development has shaken the pro-Israel community, with many questioning the future of U.S.-Israel relations under the Biden administration. As the situation continues to unfold, all eyes are on the White House for their response to the growing criticism. Celebrity Beauty Buzz will continue to monitor the situation and provide updates as they become available.
