Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN)
Rep. Omar is not new to controversy with her viciously Antisemitic sentiments in the past. But the recent violence in the region by Hamas terrorists has brought her to defend Palestinians. She has claimed that the airstrikes coming toward Israel are fine because there is a missile defense system in place while the missiles being shot in defense by Israel are not okay because there is no such missile defense system in place.
Israeli air strikes killing civilians in Gaza is an act of terrorism.
Palestinians deserve protection.
Unlike Israel, missile defense programs, such as Iron Dome, don’t exist to protect Palestinian civilians.
It’s unconscionable to not condemn these attacks on the week of Eid. https://t.co/vWWQfMqBkT
