WSJ: Denying weapons to Israel in the middle of a war is betrayal

The Wall Street Journal (WSJ) editorial board slammed former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and other Democrats in an editorial on Tuesday for their signing of a letter urging President Joe Biden to stop the transfer of weapons to Israel.

“Denying weapons to an ally in the middle of a war is the definition of betrayal,” the newspaper’s editorial board wrote, labeling Pelosi a “sunshine ally.”

The letter was signed by dozens of Democrats after Israel mistakenly killed seven World Central Kitchen aid workers last week.

American hypocrisy?

In the editorial, the WSJ noted that the US was holding Israel to a standard that it, itself, had failed to meet.

“They ignore the Hellfire missile attack that killed seven children as the US sought to avenge the deaths of 13 Americans in Kabul as Mr. Biden pulled US forces from Afghanistan in 2021,” the editorial said, adding that, unlike the US in that instance, “Israel has a history of accountability for such mistakes.”
