Breaking: United States-Israel Defense Technology Cooperation Initiative Today, Congress is returning from a very long recess. As they get back in town, I have a word of caution for them to seriously consider taking. In August, I warned about the United States-Israel Defense Technology Cooperation Initiative in Section 219 of the House NDAA. My opposition stands. America must retain independent control over our military technology, weapons development, and defense priorities. Congress should NOT use the lame duck session to advance the United States-Israel Defense Technology Cooperation Initiative in the NDAA provision because of its implications for American sovereignty and independent control of our national defense. Particularly after this election, Washington should be listening to the American people. America must retain independent control over our military technology, weapons development, and defense priorities. I would apply that same standard to ANY foreign nation. Our responsibility is to the United States and the citizens we took an oath to defend (Period!). The Senate refused to take a vote on this controversial matter before the election, and it certainly should not try to pass it now that the American people have spoken. If Congress wants to pursue this arrangement, it owes the American people public hearings, a full explanation of the consequences, and a separate, recorded vote. No hiding behind a “must-pass” defense bill. No using support for our troops to pressure members into accepting commitments they would otherwise reject. Strip this provision from the NDAA. America’s sovereignty belongs to the AMERICAN PEOPLE. generalflynn.com/preserving-…
