Pelosi pushes for independent commission to examine World Central Kitchen strike
The Hill ^ | 04/11/2024 | Brad Dress

Former Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) this week pushed for an independent commission to look into the Israeli strike that killed seven aid workers with the charity World Central Kitchen (WCK) earlier this month.

Pelosi said in an interview with MSNBC on Wednesday that she signed onto a letter with more than 50 other Democrats calling to withhold weapons until an independent commission can investigate the WCK strike.

“The letter is simple: until you have an investigation, we should withhold,” she said. “I think it’s a very contained letter. There are other people who have different standards for what we should be doing in terms of offensive weapons.”

There has been growing frustration in the Democratic Party over Israel’s war against the Palestinian militant group Hamas in Gaza, where more than 33,000 people have been killed in just more than six months of fighting.

The Democratic Party is moving toward being officially anti-Israel. I expect it will be fully in force before this summer’s convention.

Will they adopt the swastika as their symbol?

If you divide the world and all human history into Oppressed and oppressors. Israel is now a “White Oppressor” State keeping down the “Colored” Arab people. Jews were once seen as oppressed (after WW II and the Death Camps) Now they have been killed by their own success and are now White and evil. Welcome to the party, Jews. As such they get to be classed like Whites in South Africa and southern slave owners in the south. Democrats MUST be anti-Israel to fit their narrow world view. Sadly, many self hating Jews will still vote for them. The Palis are a new protected class and can do whatever they like.

I could be mistaken but I believe a significant majority of those I refer to as the “diaspora” Jews are anti-Israeli to the bone, especially those in government and corporate positions of power. Chucky comes immediately to mind!

Dems are turning against Israel now because Netanyahu is trying to push this war to be regional. First they hit Iranian generals in their Syria embassy and now they used missiles to take out the children and grandkids of Hamas leaders. The US has no interest in a regional war and is trying to rein Israel in.

The Mosad should put an end to her efforts. They owe the US and this would be a nice down payment. She has outlived her usefulness in the world we live. Maybe they can kidnap her and parachute her into some sub-African or Afghanistan small town and let the goat herders deal with her.

The Jews for lack of a better term are Olive, and so are the Arabs, but they identify as brown when they get to the US, yet the Jews are considered white - it really is a matter of the Classical Western Mind trained in logice vs. emotion.

Now we see the true Nancy - antisemite like the rest of her liberal buddies.

And her ego was too big to step down from her seat. Good riddance

Please don’t denigrate millionaires, Maoists, and whores by associating them with Pelosi. Use adjectives like evil, unscrupulous and demonic in the future.
