    House passes Israel Iron Dome funding with some Democratic defections.
    Roll Call (Center) • Factual Grade 79% • 4 min read

    The bill to provide the funding to Israel’s Iron Dome missile defense system passed 420-9 under suspension of the rules, a process that allowed a quick floor vote given strong bipartisan support. House Democratic leaders used the fast-track avenue after the funding had to be stripped from a stopgap spending bill after some progressives revolted.
    ...
    The crux of the progressive argument over funding for Iron Dome has more to do with timing and proportionality. “I will not support an effort to enable and support war crimes, human rights abuses and violence,” Congresswoman Rashida Tlaib, who is Palestinian American, said in a floor speech Thursday. “We cannot be talking only about Israelis’ need for safety at a time when Palestinians are living under a violent apartheid system.”
    ...
    Israel’s Iron Dome was used successfully this spring during a period of fighting in the Gaza Strip to destroy over 90 percent of the approximately 4,000 rockets launched by Hamas into civilian-occupied areas of Israel.

Context: Federal bipartisan talks on police reform break down, in part due to disagreement on qualified immunity.

HIGHLIGHTED COMMENTS

Yes - It allows officers to act without a shred of logic IF that exact thing has never been done before. In this case, officers destroyed a woman’s home because they had bad information and they thought her dog was a drug dealer. They simply said “oops, my bad”…and had no repercussions for destroying everything this woman owned. How is that ok?


No - The public generally doesn't understand what falls under qualified immunity. It is to dismiss insubstanti...



Unsure - While some benefit of the doubt should be given to officers in quick decision scenarios, there shouldn’...
