Republicans in the Senate are accusing the Democratic Party, including President Biden and Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer, of emboldening Iran prior to the country's recent attack on U.S. ally Israel. The accusations stem from a belief that Democrats are more focused on appealing to their radical left base than supporting Israel.
Senators like Ted Cruz and Tom Cotton have criticized Biden for allowing funds to flow to Iran, which they claim were used to make weapons that were later used in the attack on Israel. The recent direct assault by Iran on Israel, using drones and missiles, marked a significant escalation in the conflict between the two nations.
