Democrat Fails, Hypocrisy, and Lies

The Republican Point: These Democrats took the word of terrorists

Commentary

These Democrats decided to take the word of terrorists to falsely accuse Israel of bombing a hospital before the facts were known.

Democrat Rep. Rashida Tlaib even outrageously reposted a woman who accused Israel of genocide.

The terrorists’ propaganda was a lie. We now know that video, audio, and signals intelligence shows that the rocket that hit the hospital was launched by the Islamic Jihad terrorist group from within Gaza, a finding backed by the analysis of U.S. defense officials.

However, as of this moment, those posts are still up without correction or apology. So not only did these Democrats take the word of terrorists before the facts came out, they would now rather believe the words of terrorists than Israel, U.S. defense officials, and the evidence.

Here’s the point: Many Democrats used terrorists’ lies to smear Israel with antisemitic posts. Now, U.S. embassies are under threat. Republicans were right to remove Ilhan Omar from the Foreign Affairs Committee and condemn the long history of antisemitic remarks from Democrats. When will Democrat leadership finally stand up and reject the antisemitism within their caucus?
