Republican Congressman Calls for Gaza to be Nuked, Then Lies About It
Channel: The Humanist Report
Date: 2024-04-02

During a town hall Republican congressman Tim Walberg denounced humanitarian aid to Gaza and asserted his desire to do to them what the U.S. did to Hiroshima and Nagasaki: nuke them. He later gaslit people outraged by his comments. As despicable as his comments were, supporting mass murder is the de facto position of the U.S. government—so he’s not alone. In this video we’ll discuss other politicians’ comments as well as Biden’s latest round of weapon sales to Israel.
