absolutely disgusting. not only are they funding the murder and starvation of Palestinians with taxpayer funds, they are forcing people to cheer for it. The USA is rotten to the core, irredeemable.

The usury based economic system needs to be replaced with a humanitarian alternative which appears impossible in a world where the prevailing ideology is based on satisfying greed.

Sorry, I just spent about 20 minutes searching online for the Republican vote tally and have not been able to find it. If you do a Google search on 'final vote Republican vote for H.R. 9495' you should eventually be able to find it. If you do. let me know and I'll add the link.

Democracy Now! and Truthout, Common Dreams ARE JOKES!

Try real journalism like World Socialist Web Site WSWS, Black Agenda Report, The Grayzone & The Electronic Intifada!

All of them do good work and all of them can fall short.

There she is in the middle of that list, our Congressthing -- Marcy Kaptur (OH District 9) -- a first rate zy -0-nist and partaker of plentiful AIPAC/J Street campaign payola. I've emailed the b*tch dozens of times not to vote for this bill (and others regarding arms sales to Israel) and she never listens. She treats Arab American voters in her district with contempt, especially when they asked her last year to support a ceasefire measure. The woman is beyond heartless. I suppose she's got a Israeli passport and is planning on retiring there in a few years on a sunny beach in what used to be Gaza. Too bad we can't drone bomb her and others like her out of office now...

You can say that again! That's why voters can't keep doing what they're relying on--voting for these dickweeds in the future.
