Please strip Section 224 from the FY2027 NDAA.
Section 224 is not routine cooperation. It hardwires the U.S. military supply chain, tech pipeline, and logistics more tightly to Israel for the long haul. That means when Israel walks into a disaster, we are lashed to it by design — our weapons, our data, our infrastructure, our national reputation.
The risks are obvious and unacceptable:
• It makes U.S. forces more vulnerable by tying our systems and supply chains to another country’s choices and enemies.
• It makes it much harder for future Congresses to say “no” or put conditions on Israel without also sabotaging U.S. readiness.
• It buries a controversial foreign military partnership inside Pentagon contracting, where voters and even many Members will have little real visibility or leverage.
This is exactly backwards from where the public is. Americans are not asking for a deeper, more permanent military merger with Israel. They are asking why we keep writing blank checks while civilian casualties mount and international outrage grows. Instead of listening, Section 224 tries to lock the door from the inside and throw away the key.
This is not “supporting an ally.” It is signing the U.S. up for Israel’s unending aggression and war crimes to expand Israel, and hoping your voters do not notice until it is too late.
If you care about U.S. security, democratic control over war and peace, and basic political reality at home, you should oppose Section 224 and vote to remove it from the NDAA.
