    Circumventing congress to sell Netanyahu weapons is not standing back and watching impassively.

    Running interference for Netanyahu at the UN isn’t standing back and watching impassively.

    Voting overwhelmingly to not condition aid is not standing back and watching impassively.

    Voting overwhelmingly to fund Israel while they are committing genocide is not standing back and watching impassively.

    Claiming that those who oppose Netanyahu’s genocide have ties to Russia isn’t standing back and watching impassively.
