Jayapal: Israel’s Behavior ‘Prompted’ Hamas to Fire Rockets

Ian Hanchett 19 May 2021

On Wednesday’s broadcast of CNN’s “The Lead,” Congressional Progressive Caucus Chair Pramila Jayapal (D-WA) stated that Israel’s behavior “prompted” Hamas’ rocket fire and that the U.S. has to “put more responsibility on Israel in maintaining peace in the region.”

Jayapal said, “Well, we condemn Hamas’ firing of those rockets, but I think you have to look at what prompted even that behavior. I think there was the continuing annexation that Israel has been undertaking, for years, actually…this has been a pattern of action from Israel that, frankly, has taken away the idea even of a two-state solution, has led to increased hopelessness from the Palestinian people. And I think what Hamas has done is — obviously we condemn that, but we have to look at the power balance here, or imbalance as it were, and we have to put more responsibility on Israel in maintaining peace in the region.”

Israel should just wipeout every last terrorist in Israel and be done with it. The DCP is going to condemn Israel no matter what they do.

Pure nonsense.

Sending thousands of rockets is a declaration of war.  Israel should vanquish the Palestinians, that means kill them until they come up with their hands held high in surrender.  And I recommend unconditional surrender.

The concept of proportional is a weak sister moronic concept developed by a weak sister USA politician.  Proportional should NOT be in the vocabulary of the Israelis.  Totally vanquishing the Palestinians is the only consideration.  I do not want to hear idiots on Hannity's program like Geraldo Rivera crying about dead Palestinian children.  This is no different than when the USA fire bombed Germany and Japan.  No *sshat journalist stood up concerned about the German and Japanese children being killed.

It is time to end the thoughts about civilian versus operatives, and destroy/vanquish the enemy.  Start by leveling the 2nd largest Palestinian city.  I mean level every building and kill every person in the city.  War has been declared by Palestine, and they deserve an appropriate response, and NOT a proportional response.
