Democratic Rep. Rashida Tlaib refused to apologize Wednesday for saying on Tuesday that Israel is to blame for the hospital explosion that day in Gaza, an accusation that sparked political backlash against her from Republicans as Israel denies fault.
Tlaib joined thousands of protesters calling for a ceasefire in Gaza during a solidarity rally hosted by the left-leaning group Jewish Voice for Peace at the National Mall. She was visibly emotional, at times pausing her speech to openly weep and criticizing lawmakers who have not backed a ceasefire resolution.
Who? For the lazy. She’s Palestinian as well so the bias is understandable.

The hospital attack was a failed rocket by Islamic Jihad coming from Gaza toward Israel.

At the very least she should recant her statements. There’s been enough chaos from it being attributed to Israel that she has a responsibility as a public official to issue a retraction.
Who? You’re in a political subreddit. You didn’t know who she is?
Not everyone’s American, we don’t know your entire portfolio of talking heads.
… You know all 435 voting members of the US House of Representatives which she’s a part of and 100 Congressman?
Right lmfao.
She’s not some nobody from nowhere.
