(Jewish Group) The DSA motion to censure AOC : She affirmed Israel's right to exist

And whereas, Ocasio-Cortez has not only ineffectively voiced opposition to the Democratic Party’s support of Israel’s unjust and criminal war, but has actively promoted said war as follows:

- In a March 2024 interview with CNN, Ocasio-Cortez failed to support Palestinian resistance against settler-colonial occupation, and instead stated her support of the United States and Israel’s plan to crush Palestinian resistance,

-In an April 20th congressional letter, Ocasio-Cortez affirmed Israel’s right to “self-defense” and supported further funding of the Iron Dome,

- Ocasio-Cortez endorsed Democratic presidential candidates Joe Biden, and later Kamala Harris, despite their unconditional support of Israel financially and ideologically, and,

- Ocasio-Cortez voted for House Resolution 888, which not only states that Israel has a “right to exist”, but that to deny this is antisemitic;

They also flipped the bird to Harris.

I'm sick of the DSA. If they are so great and powerful - why do they only have 80,000 members?

AOC doesn't need them.

in addition to those that are anti-Semitic.

It's time for politicians to pick a side.

I'll volunteer to do it: They are Marxists. They hate democracy and have no place in the Democratic Party, which the last time I looked supports DEMOCRACY.
