Clown shit. Flat out uses the IDF's "but the Iron Dome is defensive" argument.
I understand that working in electoral politics is going to require strategic acumen and a willingness to compromise (non-electoral politics also require these things). But that's not what Bowman and AOC did here. This statement is just caping for them.
Yeah it's not like this was some kind of performative bill or something either. This article makes it sound like the bill was some trap that was just a gotcha for any anti-Zionist politicians. That's like 0.001% of what it was. This bill pays, in one single bill, about two thirds of what we've given to them for the Iron Dome, ever. In the decade it has existed, we've given them around $1.56 billion. This gives another $1 billion.
