White House Condemns “Repugnant” Comments from Fellow Democrats on Israel

It took quite some time, but the Biden Administration has finally decided to recognize the vile behavior of the infamous democrat “squad.”

Earlier this week, democrat representatives Ilhan Omar, Rashida Tlaib, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, and Cori Bush made some controversial comments in regards to the conflict between Israel and Hamas.

Both Tlaib and Bush called for the United States to cease all assistance to Israel.

As for Ocasio-Cortez and Omar, they both called for a “ceasefire” right after Hamas brutally murdered hundreds of innocent civilians on Saturday.

This is far from the first time these ladies have made such comments, but the PR pressure must have finally gotten to the White House, because press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre had some choice words for them in a press conference.

Jean-Pierre called their comments “repugnant” and “disgraceful.”

Fox News has details:

White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre turned up the heat on members of the far-left “Squad” during Tuesday’s press briefing, blasting their comments on the war between Israel and Hamas as “wrong,” “repugnant,” and “disgraceful.”

“I’ve seen some of those statements this weekend, and we’re going to continue to be very clear. We believe they’re wrong, we believe they’re repugnant, and we believe they’re disgraceful,” Jean-Pierre said when asked for the administration’s reaction to comments made by Rep. Ilhan Omar, D-Minn., Rep. Rashida Tlaib, D-Mich., Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y. and Rep. Cori Bush, D-Mo.

“Our condemnation belongs squarely with terrorists who have brutally murdered, raped, kidnapped hundreds, hundreds of Israelis. There can be no equivocation about that. There are not two sides here. There are not two sides,” she added.

The Washington Times has more on just what the “squad” had to say about the ongoing conflict:

The White House pushback comes after two members of the Squad suggested that Israel bears some responsibility for the terror attacks.

Rep. Cori Bush, Missouri Democratic, issued a statement lamenting the loss of both Israeli and Palestinian lives before calling for an end to U.S. support for Israel.

“As part of achieving a just and lasting peace, we must do our part to stop this violence and trauma by ending US government support for Israeli military occupation and apartheid,” she wrote.

Fellow Squad member Rep. Rashida Tlaib, Michigan Democrat, echoed Ms. Bush’s statements, saying Israel was an “apartheid government” and blasted the U.S. for “unconditional funding” to the Jewish state.

Not a good look for these ladies…

Here is the full context of what Omar had to say in a tweet:

I condemn the horrific acts we are seeing unfold today in Israel against children, women, the elderly, and the unarmed people who are being slaughtered and taken hostage by Hamas. Such senseless violence will only repeat the back and forth cycle we’ve seen, which we cannot allow to continue. We need to call for deescalation and ceasefire. I will keep advocating for peace and justice throughout the Middle East.
