Rep. Chip Roy Accuses Biden of Pandering to ‘Radical’ Progressives by ‘Abandoning’ Ally IsraelJoshua Klein 26 Mar 2024
President Joe Biden’s “cowardly” decision for the U.S. to abstain from the U.N. Security Council’s call for a ceasefire in the Gaza conflict — effectively granting Hamas its wish to remain in power — is a “slap in the face” to Israel, according to Representative Chip Roy.
The Texas Republican further accused the Democrat president of pandering to progressive extremists while “abandoning” America’s longtime ally in the Middle East.
In an exclusive statement to Breitbart News on Tuesday, Rep. Roy addressed the recent U.S. abstention from a U.N. Security Council vote calling for a ceasefire in the Gaza war, a move that diverged from its usual practice of vetoing resolutions against Israel.
“The Biden administration’s cowardly decision to abandon our ally Israel and abstain instead of vetoing this biased UN Security Council Resolution is a slap in the face,” he said. “This is yet another shameless ploy to curry favor with the radical progressive Democrats whose true sympathies lie with Hamas.”
