Sen. Cotton: Biden Has Imposed a De Facto Arms Embargo on Israel
EXCERPT:
COTTON: “He's imposed a de facto arms embargo on Israel and sanctions on Israelis. In the meantime --“
BRENNAN: “They're sending weapons this weekend. That's not an arms embargo.”
COTTON: “And, in the meantime -- he just said last week that he's not going to send offensive weapons. We have no idea what he's going to withhold.”
BRENNAN: “He -- that was, as -- as we just exchanged with -- with Secretary Blinken, not a very clear statement in that CNN interview. Democrats have said that.”
COTTON: “Well --“
BRENNAN: “But what Blinken said there was, it was just that one single shipment. You're saying you do not believe the secretary of state when he says that?”
COTTON: “Margaret, in March of 2022, Tony Blinken came on your show, this very show, and said the United States would be perfectly fine to see fighter jets sent to Ukraine. Joe Biden immediately reversed Tony Blinken's statement on this show. So what Tony Blinken says on this show cannot be credited, when Joe Biden is out there imposing a de facto arms embargo on Israel, at the same time he's letting arms embargoes on Iran expire.”
