The Biden administration has formally announced an $8 billion arms sale to Israel, even amidst mounting calls from various sectors to suspend military backing due to ongoing civilian casualties in Gaza.
Human rights organizations and activists are urging that the arms sales be halted, arguing they violate the Leahy Law, which necessitates barring military assistance when credible evidence of human rights abuses exists.
With more than 45,000 reported deaths, primarily among women and children, advocates criticize the U.S. for enabling what they describe as a genocidal campaign by Israel in Gaza.
The Council on American-Islamic Relations denounced the arms deal, labeling it as "racist" and "sociopathic," highlighting increasing tensions and dissatisfaction with U.S. foreign policy regarding Israel.
