Jewish Democrats Split Over Calls to End Aid to Israel Amid Conflict With Hamas
-
Jewish House Democrat blasts 'Squad' members Tlaib and Bush for calling to end U.S. assistance to Israel amid war with Hamas.
-
Gottheimer says it "sickens" him that while Israelis mourn murdered civilians, Congress members want to strip funding to an ally.
-
Fellow progressive Democrat Rep. Ritchie Torres also blasted Tlaib and Bush, saying U.S. aid to Israel should be unconditional.
-
Torres said it's "reprehensible and repulsive" to glorify as resistance the single-day mass murder of Jews since the Holocaust.
-
Neither Tlaib's nor Bush's offices immediately responded to requests for comment on their statements.
