The supposed pro Israel groups lobbied against Pauls' amendment to stop the transfer of F16's and Tanks to Egypt. This included APAC.

Rand Paul’s amendment “To prohibit the sale, lease, transfer, retransfer, or delivery of F-16 aircraft, M1 tanks, or certain other defense articles or services to the Government of Egypt” failed in the Senate today by a vote of 79-19.
Just to clarify, the vote was to ‘table’ the amendment which is why there are more YEAs than NAYs.
Here’s the roll call vote:
