Meanwhile there are Hundreds of Democrats that desperately need replacing and could actually swing the balance

What does that have to do with anything I mentioned? Did I say anything about other Democrats?

Once maybe. The fact is that the US and Israeli arms industries have commingled and each relies on the other for different expertise. A full arms embargo would certainly lead to at least the risk of Israel trading arms secrets for access to weapons made elsewhere. Israel is not a passive purchaser of weapons or intelligence technology.

No, the entire economy is propped by the U.S. backstop. Israeli bonds, currency, financial assets are valued highly because U.S. defends it. It's not always as explicit as military 'aid'.

Also, if these are the kind of arguments AOC is thinking about, she deserves to lose. I'm not attacking you, but AOC.

Every foreign policy decision has ramifications that go far beyond the immediate. Israel isn't going to not have a missile defense shield so, if they don't get it from us, they will get it from someone else.

Ok, so? If U.S. does that and even if other countries starts arming them, U.S. will at least have a moral high ground.

There is no evidence any of these countries will give Israel weapons btw.

If there is an arms embargo, Israeli economy tanks since much of it is propped up on the U.S. being the backstop.
