FOR FURTHER REFERENCE

Chuck Schumer’s Problem Is with Israel, Not Netanyahu:  Noah Rothman, National Review, Mar. 14, 2024 — In a display of all the modesty of which he is capable during a Thursday speech, Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer anointed himself the voice of “so many mainstream Jewish Americans” — a “silent majority” whose sentiments he alone could divine.

The White House Knew Schumer’s Israel Speech Was Coming. Israel Will Notice That.: Jay Solomon, Semafor, Mar. 14, 2024 — The White House reviewed, but didn’t block, Senate Majority Leader Charles Schumer’s sharp attack on Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu Thursday. While the administration has not embraced his explosive call for new elections, the lack of apparent pushback signaled a growing split between the two countries’ leaderships.

Republicans Seethe Over Schumer Call for Israeli Elections Al Weaver, The Hill, Mar. 14, 2024 — Republicans say Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) made a serious political misstep with his call for new elections in Israel to replace Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.

Schumer’s Call for Netanyahu’s Ouster Meets Chilly Reception in Pro-Israel Community Marc Rod, Jewish Insider, Mar. 14, 2024 — Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer’s (D-NY) speech on Thursday calling for new Israeli elections and the ouster of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has been met with a chilly reception in the centrist and moderate Democratic pro-Israel community, even as some praised portions of the speech but distanced themselves from Schumer’s comments on Israel’s leadership.

Biden: Make a Full Break with Bibi: Albert R. Hunt, Politics War Room with James Carville and Al Hunt, Mar. 15, 2024 — Benjamin Netanyahu is playing Joe Biden. The President should split with with the Israeli Prime Minister, not just rhetorically.
