MILITARY MERGER? AOC Slammed for LIES, Accused of Stoking ‘Jew Hatred’ Over Defense Bill!
Did a recent defense bill just merge parts of the U.S. military with Israel's? That's the shocking claim made by Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, igniting a firestorm of controversy and fierce backlash. Despite the House-passed National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) explicitly calling for deeper U.S.-Israel defense *integration* and expanded cooperation, Ocasio-Cortez asserted the legislation would "merge parts of our military with the IDF." This contentious statement immediately drew sharp criticism, with Republican lawmakers like Lee Zeldin and Mike Lawler accusing her of making false claims and even "stoking Jew hatred." They argued the provision simply expands existing defense collaboration, not a merger, maintaining U.S. sovereignty. Even some lawmakers who opposed the bill's Section 219, like Reps. Thomas Massie and Ro Khanna, expressed concerns about its scope but avoided Ocasio-Cortez's sensational framing. Their efforts to strip the provision were controversially blocked by House leadership, sparking further debate over transparency and the influence of the pro-Israel lobby. This dramatic political clash underscores the deep divisions within Congress regarding U.S. foreign policy and legislative interpretations.
