If the squad is so concerned about gaza and or palestine they need to go home and help their motherland, or STFU!!

[marcdeveraux]

Why didn't this woman stay in her moslem country? Too oppressive for her?

[roseanne]

Not once she condemned what the hamas did in Israel

[Astris]

I feel so sorry for all the innocent lives no matter what race, religion, or color who have been tortured, slaughtered, and killed! So many unarmed unable to defend themselves!!!

[christyd]

What about the damage that Hamas has done in Israel? Where is the humanity in that? And why does Hamas feel that it is ok to rape and kill they must be stopped. I am sorry for the innocent civilians that have been affected by this but this is the price of war and now Hamas has invaded America! We are indeed in perilous time.

[chadalbert]

Maybe Palestine shouldn’t have gunned down innocent people at a concert 🤷🏻‍♂️

[blitzkreig]

Why don't she ask Hamas to cease their fire against Israel.

[rswm]

Why is she not condemning what Hamas did?

[vicki]

Maybe she can get on a plane and go be the head of the palestinians..that would be fine she can go negotiate with hamas

[ash]

You should call Hamas and tell them how you feel about war

[Hc_tbc]

If you don’t lead with the American hostages as your first concern you might as well move to Gaza

[GgTothemaxx]

At least she is blaming Biden for this mess. 😂✅️

[punothebear]

Did omar condemn the hamas attack on Gaza? What a hypocrite!

[garyedwards]

Can someone make it clear to the squad who started this war in Israel and who attacked first

[joelgaulton]

She talks about the bombings as if they're targeting civilians. They're targeting Hamas and Islamic Jihad.

[livefromtexas]

Has she condemned Hamas for hiding weapons and terrorists under hospitals and schools in Gaza? What about all the humanitarian aid to the Palestinians that has made Hamas leaders wealthy?

[erfanatic]

I bet Trump would have done better but you guys hated him for no reason.

[bluecow]

If this was happening to Israel, she would not be saying the same thing, this is why Israel has the right to defend themselves.

[clearvision]

She fights more for Gaza than for America.

If there was to be a cease fire, Hamas should do it.

Who were the ones that invaded October 7?

[Lindeelue]

Did you stand for Israel after being attacked?
I don’t recall you standing for their loss, just for Palestinians
