45 legislators voted against a bill denouncing the International Court of Justice’s July 9 ruling against Israel’s West Bank security barrier, the largest nay vote on a pro-Israel congressional measure in recent years.
When did we start using the US congress as a litmus test for 'right'. This is the same body that voted unlimited spending for the Iraqi war and other debacles.
This is a campaign issue and the majority of congress is going to roll over dead when it comes to bucking support for Israel in an election year.
