Congresswomen Tlaib and Bush said in statements over the weekend that they supported an end to U.S. military aid to Israel.
New York Congressman Ritchie Torres rebuked a handful of his fellow House Democrats in a statement Sunday over what he said were 'repulsive' comments regarding the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.On Saturday, the Palestinian militant group Hamas launched an unprecedented attack against Israel, killing more than 1,100 people and leading to a 'complete siege' on the Gaza Strip by the Israeli military.
''The failure to recognize the violent reality of living under siege, occupation, and apartheid makes no one safer,' Tlaib added. 'We cannot ignore the humanity in each other. As long as our country provides billions in unconditional funding to support the apartheid government, this heartbreaking cycle of violence will continue.Torres, in a statement shared with Jewish Insider reporter Marc Rod, ripped Bush and Tlaib's comments and restated his support for U.S. aid to Israel.
