WASHINGTON — President Joe Biden declared it “vital for America’s security” for Israel and Ukraine to succeed in their wars, making the case for Congress to approve billions in military aid for those nations in a speech that highlighted the death of a Plainfield-area Palestinian American youth, Wadea Al-Fayoume.
“Just last week, a mother was brutally stabbed, and a little boy who had just turned 6-years-old was murdered in their home outside Chicago,” Biden said.
