Which seems almost benign &#8211; what\u2019s wrong with cooperation, right? Until you consider that the U.S.-Israel alliance is (a) an ongoing perpetrator of genocide and endless war and (b) already closely connected with each other militarily in matters of weapons, technology, intelligence, and more.<br><br>This section of the law, Section 219, requested by Benjamin Netanyahu, is indeed exceptional &#8211; and dangerous. Notably, it will, if enacted, establish a so-called Executive Agent (EA) who can overrule other Pentagon agencies, especially with regard to the transfer of technology and information between the two nations. It is meant to integrate Israel into US military supply chains, constituting a marked shift in the relationship between the two countries. Instead of Israel having to go through a Congressional process of review and oversight to receive U.S. funding, it would be merged right into the US war economy itself, moving from outside to inside the Pentagon. Once this is done, Israel\u2019s influence in the U.S. will massively increase and will be very difficult and costly to reverse.<br><br>At a time when support for Israel is declining in the U.S., this appears to be a stealthy way to avoid continued public debate about aiding and abetting Israel and to cement an ongoing, tighter than ever, merging of the two militaries and economies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This webinar will explore the implications and likely consequences of this proposal if it becomes law.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Presenters:<br><br>Ben Freeman is director of the Democratizing Foreign Policy program at the Quincy Institute.<br><br>Matt Hoh is a disabled Marine Corps veteran of the Iraq War and former Afghan War State Department Officer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Host: War Industry Resisters Network<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Info:&nbsp;<a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.indybay.org\/newsitems\/2026\/07\/05\/18887230.php\">Webinar: Trojan Horse: US-Israel Military Cooperation Initiative : Indybay<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Thursday, July 16<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h1 class=\"wp-block-heading\">3.

The decisive question is: what is now possible for humanity, in terms of actual and fundamental emancipation\u2014in opposition to the way that this system of capitalism-imperialism stands as the direct barrier to the achievement of unprecedented emancipation, and the fact this system is, in an all too real and terrible sense, force marching humanity toward the abyss.<\/h1>\n\n\n\n<h1 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Info:&nbsp;<a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.indybay.org\/newsitems\/2026\/07\/12\/18887387.php\">Discussion: Pt.3 Declaration of Independence:Inventions &amp; Distortions of Reality &amp; History : Indybay<\/a><\/h1>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Saturday, July 18<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h1 class=\"wp-block-heading\">9.
