US measure to deepen Israel military cooperation faces bipartisan pushback

Al Jazeera

Two lawmakers in the United States Congress are pushing to repeal a section in an upcoming defence budget that would deepen integration between the US and Israeli militaries. Their effort comes amid outcry against the latest draft of the annual National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA), a bill that sets the budget for the US military. On Sunday, Democratic Congressman Ro Khanna said he would use his seat on the House Armed Services Committee to put forward an amendment to remove Section 224 from the bill. His Republican colleague Thomas Massie also warned that, if the bill is approved by the committee, he would work to oppose it on the floor of the House of Representatives. He framed the issue as a question of US independence from foreign governments.


US Congress moves to deepen military ties with Israel: Why it matters

Al Jazeera

Why Iran won't give up Hormuz Could Israel sabotage US-Iran deal? Lawmakers in the United States are quietly advancing a proposal that could deepen military ties between the US and Israel in unprecedented ways, at a time when public support for Israel among Americans is increasingly fractured. Among the provisions included in the 2027 National Defence Authorisation Act (NDAA) released this week is Section 224, the "United States-Israel Defence Technology Cooperation Initiative". Some legislators have already signalled opposition, with Representative Thomas Massie saying he would seek to remove the provision if it reaches the House floor. The measure remains at an early stage, but analysts say if passed, it would limit political oversight over the defence relationship.

As is often the case for DeChambeau after what he deems to be a lackluster performance, it turned into a long night on the driving range searching for something.

U.S. says capable of resuming war with Iran as deal remains elusive

The Japan Times

U.S. says capable of resuming war with Iran as deal remains elusive Washington - The United States warned Saturday that it was "more than capable" of resuming its war with Iran after President Donald Trump said any peace deal must adhere to his red lines, including Tehran never being able to develop nuclear weapons. The White House had signaled Trump was close to a decision on a potential deal, though Tehran denied there was a final agreement on ending the conflict. U.S. sources had said the deal was waiting on Trump's signoff, but he made no decision after a White House Situation Room meeting on Friday.
