What the first search did return, on the other questions
The card's claim is about what the United States sends, and that question came back empty. These questions did return material. It is reproduced word for word so nothing found is lost, and it is context rather than a position on U.S. weapons or money. Em dashes are rendered as hyphens to satisfy house style; no wording is changed.
### Characterization of the conflict There are no detailed public statements or formal policy positions by Elbert Bartell characterizing the Israel/Palestine conflict. During his prior 2020 candidate survey for the Georgia U.S. Senate special election, he left unanswered a questionnaire item asking whether he supported the Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions (BDS) movement against Israel.
