Summary of events:
Bush was elected in 2020 when she beat former Rep. William Lacy Clay in the Democratic primary.
In a phone call last summer her challenger Bell told her he would not run against her.
Bush was one of the first members of Congress to call for a ceasefire in Gaza, alongside Rep. Rashida Tlaib, D-Mich., the only Palestinian American member of Congress.
This primary AIPAC spent $8.5 million supporting Bell including mailers which featured images with distortions made to Bush’s features. It is the fourth most expensive primary in House history.
This is now the 2nd Squad member AIPAC has removed through its campaign financing.
What does any of that have to do with Israel’s genocide? No US politician is “Pro-Hamas” they’re at best against the funding and supplying of weapons to Israel due to the ongoing genocide.
Hamas was elected nearly 20 years ago at this point and there hasn’t been one since due to Israel’s occupation. Nearly half of Gazas population is children so wouldn’t have even been alive during that election. How are any of them responsible for Hamas actions?
When I say history didn’t start on Oct 7th I’m saying that this has been happening since the Nakba well before Hamas. Decades of apartheid and genocide are going to bread anger against the purpetrators. Especially when peaceful protests have been met with violance by Israel.
Any support Hamas has is largely because it’s one of the few organizations able to fight against Israel since Israel has been helping prop up Hamas.
The idea was to prevent Abbas — or anyone else in the Palestinian Authority’s West Bank government — from advancing toward the establishment of a Palestinian state.
So Israel, after running an apartheid state for decades and trying to slowly wipe out the Palestinian people, started to fund Hamas to prevent a Palestinian state from forming because as you clearly pointed out Hamas is an extremist group it blew up in their faces but that’s somehow the fault of the innocent children?
Maybe Israel should have been pushing for a unified state that guaranteed rights to all groups.
Lol you’re clearly just going to continue to believe Israel’s propaganda that it uses to justify an ongoing Apartheid state and genocide. I actually go out and organize in my community and am extensively read up on this subject but instead of countering any of my last points you want to tap out and try to use some cliche’s to end the conversation.
Lol, you’re clearly just going to continue to believe the terrorist organization Hamas isn’t motivated to do what their founding document clearly states they want to do. Instead, you want to “tap out” and try to deflect from their horrible existence by claiming that anyone defending against them is somehow commiting genocide.
If you “organize” your community to support Hamas, you are a fool, and are supportive of their genocidal tendencies.
