Former U.S. Representative Tulsi Gabbard made strong accusations against certain members of the Democratic Party, claiming hypocrisy in their stance on Israel and its conflict with Hamas. During a recent appearance on a news segment, Gabbard distinguished between the Palestinian people and Hamas, the latter designated as a terrorist organization by the United States and other countries.
Gabbard criticized figures within the Democratic Party, referring to them as apologists for Hamas. She accused them of indirectly supporting the organization’s actions against Israeli civilians, which include calls for the extermination of Jews globally, a stance rooted in extremist ideologies.
The former congresswoman, also a lieutenant colonel in the Army Reserve, argued that such views contradict the fundamental values of the United States. She highlighted the incongruity of the situation, pointing out that those who have branded her an Islamophobe for her previous statements on radical Islam are now the ones showing leniency towards what she described as Islamist extremism.
In a related discussion on Afghan refugees, Gabbard drew parallels to concerns about unvetted entries into the U.S., relating it to broader issues of national security and cultural clashes. She raised concerns about the lack of vetting and whether incoming refugees align with American values and principles.
Gabbard also addressed the controversy surrounding financial aid, suggesting that funds ostensibly allocated for support of Ukraine are being diverted to other causes, which she believes could propel the U.S. closer to nuclear conflict with Russia.
The segment concluded with Gabbard emphasizing the urgency of recognizing and confronting what she views as a significant hypocrisy within the Democratic Party concerning the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. Her comments reflect deep divisions within American politics over foreign policy and national identity.
