Has Congress cut assistance for Israel?Wow. Since "foreign aid" (which keeps Israel a complacent American fiefdom) hasn't been cut, then I guess Obama and the Dems are fanatical Zionists.
You forgot to mention the USS Liberty and Simon of Trent.

You conveniently miss the point. Until the Dems in Congress take actions that really hurt Israel then I don't view the votes and signatures cited by the author to be conclusive or meaningful. I would like to see Democrat votes on assistance to Israel over the years to see if there is a smiliar trend to the one identified by the author.
I suspect that some of the Dems are resisting signing or voting for letters and resolutions that are critical, explicitly or implicitly, of the Obama administration. It is political. Where are the cries of the Dems about the war in Iraq or Afghanistan? The Patriot Act? The homeless?
The reality is that there is not a dime's worth of difference between the two parties when it comes to Israel. That is the reason why support of Israel is seldom mention in Presidential election campaigns except for each party trying to outdo the other in how much they support Israel. Just read the statements of the Presidential candidates when they address AIPAC.
