Far-left Reps. Rashida Tlaib (D-Mich.) and Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.) have stood by social media posts blaming Israel for a deadly explosion at a Gaza hospital, even after President Biden and other US officials stated that evidence showed Palestinian terror groups were responsible.
“Israel just bombed the Baptist Hospital killing 500 Palestinians (doctors, children, patients) just like that,” Tlaib posted on X at roughly 2 p.m. Tuesday afternoon, before blaming the president for not helping “to facilitate a ceasefire.”
“Your war and destruction only approach has opened my eyes and many Palestinian Americans and Muslims Americans like me,” she added. “We will remember where you stood.”
An hour later, Omar also held Biden responsible for not pushing “an immediate ceasefire to end this slaughter.”
“Bombing a hospital is among the gravest of war crimes,” she said on X. “The IDF reportedly blowing up one of the few places the injured and wounded can seek medical treatment and shelter during a war is horrific.”
