The socialist congressional candidate whose primary-election upset of a Democratic House leader made national news this week claimed Israel committed a “massacre” of Palestinians in Gaza, despite the admission of Hamas that most of the dead were Hamas operatives.
Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, 28, wrote in a May 14 tweet that the killing of some 60 Palestinians in “March of Return” protests that day was a “massacre” and that “no state or entity is absolved of mass shootings of protesters,” reported the Jewish News Syndicate.
“There is no justification. Palestinian people deserve basic human dignity, as anyone else,” she said. “Democrats can’t be silent about this anymore.”
Hamas leaders, however, later admitted that at least 50 of those killed were members of the terror group.
Ocasio-Cortez, a member of the Democratic Socialists of America party, defeated Rep. Joe Crowley, D-N.Y., for the Democratic nomination in New York’s 14th congressional district Tuesday despite being outspent 10 to 1.
The Democratic Socialists of America supports the BDS movement, the boycott, divestment and sanctions campaign against Israel.

After him moving our embassy to Jerusalem, I’ll be surprised if those numbers don’t change considerably.
I’m not an expert on it, but Trump has been good to Israel, and he will continue to be.
I will say, if they don’t know they have it better now than they did for the prior eight years, that’s pretty remarkable.
I know a lot of Jewish voters, who are still very socially liberal and who normally vote Democrat who have told me they will definitely vote for Trump in 2020.
The promise to Abraham was unconditional, or was God lying?
Hmmmm. We may have to wait for Laz to weigh in on confirmation of female genitalia. ;-)
Thinkin’ “oc” needs to go investigate first hand. Who has the keys for the D-9?
Israelis interfered with the elections?
Glad to hear that.
I’m not Jewish in case anyone wondered, but it really disturbs me to see Jewish people vote for Democrats. The Democrats despise them.
If they could, they’d parcel off Israel.
It also tweaks me when I see Israel’s leaders shaking the hand of someone like Obama, Clinton, or Carter. There were times when I would have included Bush in that group too.
Every time Israel would get hit by an act of terrorism, either he, Condolezza, or Colin would step up to a microphone and lecture Israel on using restraint in their response.
Then look what we did after 09/11.
We survived Cynthia McKinney and earlier Ron Dellums. We’ll survive this dopey socialist.
Hating Israel and Jews is a prerequisite for entry into the Left. It’s like Leftism 101, hate Israel support the PLO’s (and HAMAS’)attempt to commit genocide against the Jews, all in the name of Liberation mind you...
No doubt you have read Ezek. 36-37, Isa. 19 and Zech. 14.
Source, please?
she’s digging herself a deep hole very quickly, hope she likes it when reality starts shoveling the dirt back ontop of her.
And now, nearly 17 years later—————— We’re still in Afghanistan. Just started reading ‘Horse Soldiers’ by Doug Stanton about the troops who were in country just weeks after 9/11/01. Amazing troops.
First rule of “hole”, when you can’t see out, quit digging.
Crap. Guessing I gotta make it past the century mark to see her gone.

“Israelis interfered with the elections?”

Of course not!
Majority of Israelis prefered Hillary! Just like Britons, French, Germans,Canadians, Aussies, ......
“No political bias” FBI believed only the countries where Trump was more popular would have motivation to interfere with American election. For example, Russia.
