Chaos erupts as House passes $1.15T defense bill with Israel provision: 'Stop stoking Jew hatred'

The US House passed a defense bill valued between $1 trillion and $1.15 trillion amid tensions involving Iran and Israel. Despite a bipartisan coalition opposing the Section 219 US-Israel defense cooperation provision, the NDAA cleared the House on Wednesday. Separately, there is a 28.5% probability of Iran reconstruction funding being established via a US-Iran deal by 2026. The legislation reflects the current strategic priorities of the US House regarding Middle East security and defense spending.
