Steve Scalise, who Won the Republican House Members’ Speaker Vote is a Major Israel Booster Determined to Help It in Its New War. So is Jim Jordan, who Scalise Defeated.

Rep. Steve Scalise (R-LA) narrowly defeated Rep. Jim Jordan (R-OH) in a Wednesday secret ballot vote among Republican members of the House of Representatives regarding which man should become House speaker. Next up is a speaker vote by the full House membership.

One thing was never in question in the race between Scalise and Jordan. Either of them as the new speaker would be over the top in his support of the Israel government and of helping it in its new war arising out of the Saturday Hamas attack.

The House-Knesset Parliamentary Friendship Group

Top Republican and Democratic leaders of the United States Congress just can’t get enough of demonstrating their over the top support for the government of Israel. One of the latest efforts to demonstrate this extreme devotion is the announcement by US House of Representatives Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) of the appointment of 12 Republican and Democratic House members to the new House-Knesset Parliamentary Friendship Group.

After Congressional Leadership Changes, Supporting Israel Remains the Message

In July of last year, I wrote about how among top Republican and Democratic leaders of the United States House of Representatives and Senate “the support for the government of Israel appears unanimous and over the top” even though polling indicates Americans are pretty evenly divided between having favorable and negative views of the Israel government.

Here we are a year later, and the situation seems the same as before.

The American People, Unlike US Congress Leaders, Are Not United for Israel

A Pew Research Center poll conducted in March indicates that Americans have rather evenly divided views in regard to the government of Israel. While 48 percent of polled Americans stated they have a favorable view of the Israeli government, nearly as many — 44 percent — said they have a negative view.

In contrast, among United States Congress top leadership members — both Republican and Democratic, the support for the government of Israel appears unanimous and over the top.

Transitioning from Vaccine Passports to Everything Passports

Israel has gone further quicker than most governments in pushing people to take experimental coronavirus vaccines and imposing vaccine passports as a requirement for people to go about their daily activities. Last week, Israel Health Minister Nitzan Horowitz announced that holders of these vaccine passports, called green passes by the government, will be required to take yet another shot of experimental coronavirus “vaccine” — termed a booster shot — and, apparently, keep taking more booster shots and being exposed to additional side-effect risks each additional five to six months or their vaccine passports will be revoked.

If this new requirement can be imposed on people in order for them to keep their vaccine passports operating, there is no limit to the requirements that can be piled on. Israel is making the first move in transitioning from vaccine passports to everything passports.
