Hamas raped women and killed babies.
The left organized large pro Hamas rallies.


"Pro-Palestinian rallies aren't the left". LOL@him. Some folks just have to project their failings on others 24/7. In this case, it's him whining about liars.

Let's look at the head of the progressive caucus in Congress, shall we? Pramila Jayapal - whom I'm ashamed to say is my representative in Congress - was on CNN today:

“I’ve seen a lot of Progressive women. Generally speaking, they’re quick to defend women’s rights and to speak out against using rape as a weapon of war, but downright silent on what we saw on October 7th and what might be happening inside Gaza right now to these hostages.”

“Why is that?” Bash asked Jayapal.

“I don’t know that that’s true,” Jayapal said. “I think we always talk about the impact of war on women in particular.”

Jayapal insisted that she has “absolutely” kept the topic in mind since Oct. 7 “and I’ve condemned what Hamas has done.”

“Specifically against women?” Bash asked.

“Of course!” Jayapal responded. From there, though, she pivoted to the scrutiny Israel has received over the unprecedented civilian death toll in Gaza while the war against Hamas continues.


Dana Bash for once wasn't having it and said
“With respect, I was just asking about the women, and you turned it back to Israel. I’m asking you about Hamas…”

to which Jayapal said
“I already answered your question, Dana. I said it’s horrific, and I think that rape is horrific. Sexual assault is horrific. I think that it happens in war situations. Terrorist organizations like Hamas obviously are using these as tools. However, I think we have to be balanced about bringing in the outrages against Palestinians. Fifteen thousand Palestinians have been killed in Israeli air strikes, three-quarters of whom are women and children…”

Pramila DID NOT answer the question. She pivoted over to the left's Blame Israel talking points.

The kicker was this

“I don’t want this to be the hierarchies of oppression,” Jayapal replied.

LOL. The left is 100% about hierarchies of oppression. It's why they're backing Hamas in the first place.
