Pelosi: Zionist Regime ‘Undermining’ Ties With U.S.

WASHINGTON (Dispatches) – Democrat Speaker of the House of Representative Nancy Pelosi has waded into the debate concerning the Zionist regime’s planned annexation of the West Bank with a strongly worded warning to the occupying regime that it is undermining two of the ‘fundamental pillars’ in Washington’s longstanding support for the regime: U.S. national security interest and bipartisan support.
Both are being jeopardized, said Pelosi in a webinar hosted by the Jewish Democratic Council of America (JDCA). Speaking to the pro-Zionist socially liberal American Jewish group, Pelosi, who represents California’s 12th congressional district, said: "Unilateral annexation puts the future at risk and undermines U.S. national security interests.”
After repeating the threat that the regime’s planned annexation, which is illegal under international law "undermines [our] national security interests”, Pelosi added "and decades of bipartisan policy.”
Pelosi also dismissed U.S. President Donald Trump’s so-called "peace plan” saying it has "nothing in common with the word peace or plan.” The deal, which critics say concedes to every single Israeli demand at the expense of long-established Palestinian rights, has become a major sticking point.
While condemnation of the occupying regime’s plan to takeover more Palestinian territory has been met with universal condemnation, none have warned the regime in such a stark manner. America’s unflinching support for the Zionist regime, which appears inexplicable to critics at times, is said to be the result of vital security interest between the two sides.
The Presumptive 2020 Democratic presidential nominee, Joe Biden, echoed this in a speech in Congress where he said: "If there were not an Israel, we would have to invent one to make sure our interests were preserved.”
Pelosi’s warning that further annexation will undermine bipartisan support is also likely to concern many in the pro-Zionist camp that view support from the two main parties in the U.S. as being vital to the regime’s interest. Democrats in particular have shown that they are willing to distance themselves from the Zionist regime and break up the consensus maintained for decades in Capitol Hill.
