Quick Glance: U.S. Approves Weapon Transfers to Israel Amid Concerns
- The Biden administration recently quietly authorized the transfer of billions of dollars in bombs and fighter jets to Israel despite Washington's concerns about an anticipated military operation in southern Gaza that could threaten the lives of hundreds of thousands of Palestinian civilians.
- The new weapons packages consist of a significant number of MK84 2,000-pound bombs and MK82 500-pound bombs. This highlights that the Biden administration considers weapons transfers off-limits when influencing the actions of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
- Some Democrats, including allies of President Biden, argue that the U.S. government should withhold weapons if Israel does not commit to limiting civilian casualties during a planned operation in Rafah and easing restrictions on humanitarian aid in the famine-threatened Gaza Strip.
- Biden's recurring approvals of weapons transfers are strongly supported by powerful pro-Israel interest groups in Washington, including the American Israel Public Affairs Committee.
