Josh Hawley Slams Dems Over 'Incendiary' Israel Rhetoric That's Fueling 'Violence Against Jews'

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

Sen. Josh Hawley (R-Mo.) said Monday that "incendiary rhetoric" from Democrats about the Israeli-Palestinian conflict has fueled a surge of antisemitic attacks.

Hawley plans to introduce a Senate resolution condemning what he says is antisemitic rhetoric coming from the left. During an appearance on Fox News, the senator reacted to President Joe Biden's Monday tweet condemning the "despicable" rise in antisemitic attacks, saying he was surprised the president "took this long" to address the issue. He suggested that other Democratic lawmakers who had spoken against Israeli government policies "contributed" to the recent rise in attacks.

"[Biden] needs to call members of his own party and tell them it's time to stop this rhetoric," Hawley said. "I mean, when you say things like calling Benjamin Netanyahu an ethno-nationalist on the floor of the United States Congress, when you call Israel an apartheid state—which Democrat members of Congress have done on the floor of the United States Congress—that's incendiary rhetoric."

"We've had almost 200 incidents of violence reported now against Jewish Americans," he added. "Again, that's just reported, we don't know what else is out there. That's too many, that's too much and this rhetoric is contributing to it. It's got to stop."

But saying things like "Jewish space lasers" and "Jews will not replace us" are okay with amateur insurrectionist Hawley.
