Israel’s bombing of the Qatari capital Doha on Tuesday marked the sixth country the powerful U.S. ally attacked so far this year.
U.S. and Israeli officials told CNN and other outlets on Tuesday that Israel — which the U.S. arms to the tune of billions of dollars each year — gave President Donald Trump’s administration advance warning before carrying out the strike. The attack drew ire from progressive members of Congress, who told The Intercept that the U.S. must stop arming Israel as it accelerates attacks around the globe.
“In the past two years, Israel has bombed nation after nation with no repurcussions—all while conducting a genocide and manufacturing a famine in Gaza using U.S. taxpayer dollars,” said Rep. Summer Lee, D-Penn. “There must be accountability for Israel’s unchecked power and destabilization of the region. The United States must implement an arms embargo immediately.”
Israel has carried out tens of thousands of attacks in Palestine, Lebanon, Iran, Syria, Yemen, and now Qatar since the October 7 Hamas attacks, according to data from the Armed Conflict Location and Event Data Project. In the last three days, Israel bombed three residential buildings in Gaza City and dropped leaflets ordering residents to evacuate.
Yes things either watered down to nothing or did good then not extended like the child tax credits that massively decreased child poverty until allowed to expire.

Student loans he allowed to restart interest on in capitulation to the republicans after doing nothing to help out those with the loans after his militoast forgiveness plan was thrown out by the courts.
This is all perfect examples of doing nothing but hand outs to cooperations, not people and then dems wondering why no one liked what they did.
I disagree (obvs) but your political party isn’t even in existence is it? Like, if it’s not to make the Dems better, what’s your angle?
The dems want to be better republicans, there’s no saving then
So “no plan”. Okay.
Well hey if something comes along, let us know!
Til replace the dnc is no plan
No that’s a plan, but - y’know - how . . . is that happening? Is there . . a website or something?
Ah, I get it so we can only be critical when there’s a published plan. Got it
Howabout ANY plan? Ffs just make up one right now. How far down in there are you? You realize there’s a time element at work here right.
Why? Seriously why is this always the response to the dems are shit.
We can’t do a different party because of the wonderful election system in this country. Anytime that’s brought up to just vote for another they’re called a trump supporter.
Can’t do it from the inside because either purged by leadership or kicked out to show not like the dirty republicans see Al Franken.
Can’t do it as DSA.
Can’t do it as grassroots like netroots because just ignored.
All that seems allowed is blaming voters for realizing the system is fucked.
