“Made a mistake” seems to suggest this person thinks these settlers and soldiers will face consequences for their actions. I can’t wait to find out what those consequences will be.
Insanity! An acting US congressman was just held hostage by gun toting illegal settlers and then the military SIDES WITH THE SETTLERS!!
This is insanity.
He is 100% running for President.
That would be an act of war in a society that makes sense… absolutely despicable thugs.
*pretends to be shocked*
The IOF and settlers being the IOF and settlers, and he can count himself lucky, he left alive because he is an US congressmam, otherwise who knows what those monsters would have done to him
Netanyahu literally just went on CNN and claimed that violent settlers are just teenage delinquents that the IDF is not willing to deal with because they need to focus on Hamas lol. Seems like these IDF thugs had nothing better to do than sit back and encourage the settlers.
Ro deserves a ton of kudos for the work he’s been doing calling out various groups, foremost being the technocratic billionaires and Israel. He should be the Democratic leader instead of Schumer or Jeffries, who do nothing but performative empty “opposition” at best and actually side with the assholes at worst.
Yet we still find this genocide. Shut up or do something about it.
Detained seems polite, more like held up by a band of criminals/gang members
So… If literally anyone else captured one of our representatives, that would be considered an act of war, right,? Right?
They kidnapped Americans. That’s a bold choice.
big piece of salami on the back of their car
Hes too brown to be making these trips
Calling them settlers is so disingenuous. Genocidal occupiers.
I doubt even a congressman can dish out any punishment. Let me know if they do.
Other pages are applauding this. Disgusting
Say what you will about the man, but I appreciate him bringing this forward and using his privilege to go to Palestine at all. I hope this will help.
This is so fkn stupid to travel in that area right now. I get what he’s trying to do but IDF reminds me of Mexico cartels. You don’t travel like that in Mexico unless in a bus. Cartels will stop you.
That’s just how Israelis say hi. They are most at home while threatening or taking lives.
they call themselves settlers! lol hilarious
Genuine question: why do we call them settlers? They are invaders and infidels, are they not?
