As Israel Massacres Palestinians in Gaza, 'Democrats Can't Be Silent About This Anymore'

 

 

"This is a massacre.

"I hope my peers have the moral courage to call it such.


"No state or entity is absolved of mass shootings of protesters. There
is no justification. Palestinian people deserve basic human dignity, as
anyone else.

"Democrats can’t be silent about this anymore." -- Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, Democratic candidate for Congress in New York

Israeli soldiers killed at least 41 Palestinians and wounded over a thousand as the demonstrations coincided with the controversial opening of the U.S. Embassy in Jerusalem.
