During a tele-town hall meeting on Monday, Democratic Socialist Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortex (D-NY) responded to a caller who said America is funding genocide in Gaza by supporting Israel; “I’m not okay with that,” the caller said.
“Thousands of confirmed constituents have been calling into my office, calling for a cease-fire, calling for the conditioning of aid,” she said in a video clip posted by Forbes. “It’s not just my view, but it’s also the view of our community that what we are witnessing is the gross violation of human rights in Gaza that is being done with U.S. military assistance.
“One of the things I have been raising continually is the nature of U.S. aid to Israel and how unique it has been and the way that, in my view, it has been potentially added to the unreal human costs off what we’re seeing in Gaza.
“The United States does not condition the aid to Israel, not in the way it does to nearly any one of other allies. We’ve heard this sentiment repeated by the U.S. administration saying that there’s no ‘red line’ when it comes to us aid to Israel. I want to be clear that I’m in complete disagreement and opposition to that policy.”
