An American-Muslim advocacy group condemned President Biden’s move to bypass Congress to sell thousands of tank shells to Israel, saying the administration’s decision was “an affront to democracy and an act of moral insanity.”
Edward Ahmed Mitchell, national deputy director of the Council on American-Islamic Relations, decried the Biden administration’s decision, claiming that the move would embolden Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to “kill more Palestinian civilians.”
“Rushing deadly weapons to the far-right and openly genocidal Israeli government without congressional review robs American voters of their voice in Congress, emboldens Netanyahu to kill more Palestinian civilians and further stains our nation’s standing in the world,” Mr. Mitchell said.
