Maryland Democratic Senator Ben Cardin joined a growing chorus of centrist, pro-Israel Democrats who have voiced disagreement with President Biden's decision to withhold aid.
Senate Foreign Relations Committee chairman Sen. Ben Cardin, D-Md., said Friday that military aid to Israel should continue in a departure from the White House position. In a statement, Cardin said he disagreed with President Biden, who has threatened to withhold offensive aid from Israel if it proceeds with a ground invasion of the southern Gaza city of Rafah, where millions of Palestinians have sought refuge from the war.
Sen. Richard Blumenthal, D-Conn., agreed that U.S. support for Israel should continue. 'I don’t know what the president meant. I haven’t seen what the actual operation in Rafah is, but I certainly hope that we’ll continue to provide support militarily and diplomatically that Israel needs to defend itself,' he said. The White House pushed back on the suggestion that Biden's decision on Israel was motivated by politics.
