‘They’re not anti-war, they’re on the other side.’ That assessment still applies to certain voices on the Left.
Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez of New York called for “an immediate ceasefire” Saturday afternoon, after Hamas massacred the Israelis but before the Israelis could respond.
If you oppose the victims of a massive assault defending themselves and retaliating against a massacre, you’re not really pro-peace. You just want to end the fight after only one side has been attacked. In a clarifying op-ed in today’s Wall Street Journal, Senate minority leader Mitch McConnell called for Americans to “distinguish between the aggressor and the victim. There can be no calls for ‘both sides’ to de-escalate. Israel deserves the time and space to defend itself.”
Michigan Democrat Rashida Tlaib’s statement did not mention Hamas at all, but did declare, “I am determined as ever to fight for a just future where everyone can live in peace, without fear and with true freedom, equal rights, and human dignity. The path to that future must include lifting the blockade, ending the occupation and dismantling the apartheid system that creates the suffocating, dehumanizing conditions that can lead to resistance.” Again, no specific denunciation of Hamas, but a specific denunciation of Israel.
