Rep. Mike Lawler, R-N.Y., hit back Monday against opposition to the Israeli government’s response to the Hamas terrorist attacks voiced by Rep. Ilhan Omar, D-Minn.
The congresswoman also called on the United States to stop sending military and humanitarian assistance to Israel, accusing its military of “targeting an entire civilian population.”“Israel was just brutally attacked by terrorists, funded by Iran, and you want to cut off funding and military aid and equipment,” Lawler argued.
Omar was booted off the panel by former House Speaker Kevin McCarthy, R-Calif., earlier this year. On Sunday, McCarthy confirmed to Newsmax that he made the move because of her opposition to Israel. Other members of the “The Squad,” a coalition of far-left Democrats in Congress, have also been slammed for their rhetoric after over 1,200 Israeli territory and 900 Palestinian territory losses.
