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.

    Damn I wonder why people would be biased against an apartheid state participating in ethnic cleansing aka genocide.

    Also i never said anything about any of those specific incidents you are referring to.

        You keep putting words in my mouth, all ive ever said is that Israel is an apartheid state, and that Israel is commiting genocide. I never said shit about supporting hamas or whatever other bullshit you’re saying. Israel is an apartheid state, apartheid is never justified, apartheid states reap what they sow.

            If you do not think the situation in Israel is apartheid then you just don’t know what you’re talking about. Israel is undisputably an apartheid state. What color are israeli license plates and what color are the Palestinians license plates? Can they use the same roads? Israel is commiting genocide of the Palestinian people they keep them in an open air prison and lob bombs on them. You’re not only an apartheid apologist but also a genocide apologist. I hope your proud of yourself and your views.
