Washington, MINA – United States (US) Congresswomen Rashida Talib criticized President Joe Biden’s administration’s decision to ignore Congress in sending around 14,000 tank ammunition worth $100 million to Israel amidst the war in Gaza.

“Our District did not send President Biden to the White House to ask him to facilitate the murder of innocent civilians. “We did not turn out in large numbers to elect President Biden so he could supply bombs for genocide,” said Tlaib, the only American of Palestinian descent in Congress, in a statement as quoted by Al Jazeera on Monday.

“The government’s refusal to recognize Palestinian human dignity is deeply troubling, and actions like this are painfully obvious,” he added.

Tlaib added that the Biden administration’s shipment of $100 million worth of ammunition to Israel also put Israel “at serious risk of prosecution by the International Criminal Court.
