US Senator-elect El-Sayed backs Trump's plan to end military aid to Israel
Michigan Senator-elect Abdul El-Sayed endorsed President Donald Trump's proposal to halt US military aid to Israel by December 2026, citing allegations of genocide and apartheid in Gaza. El-Sayed called for a complete stop to arms sales, aligning with Trump's stated plan.
Yaakov Katz warns that the Democratic victory in the US midterm elections could change the rules of the game with Israel. The article details how Congress can hinder security assistance, impose conditions on arms deals, and delay funding for interceptors and Iron Dome. Alongside an American initiative to expand technological-security cooperation, there is concern that the new model has not yet been secured. Katz argues that even replacing Netanyahu with Eisenkot or Bennett will not resolve the deep gaps with the Democrats on the issues of the territories, Gaza, settlements, and the judicial overhaul. He states that the current policy is dangerous for the future of the country and calls for an urgent conceptual change.
