Joe Biden, Nancy Pelosi and Chuck Schumer appear to be at odds with a vocal segment of the Democratic Party that has criticized Israel's actions toward the Palestinians amid the region's escalating conflict.
According to the Associated Press, more than 120 Palestinians have been killed—including 31 children and 20 women. An additional 900 have been injured.
"My expectation and hope is this will be closing down sooner than later," Biden said . "Israel has a right to defend itself when you have thousands of rockets flying into your territory."
Pelosi issued a similar statement on Tuesday. "I condemn the escalating and indiscriminate rocket attacks by Hamas against Israel. Israel has the right to defend herself ."
Schumer has not tweeted or publicly released a statement about the present conflict.
Bernie Sanders slammed "Israeli extremists" and demanded the U.S. government push back against Israel's government.
Rashida Tlaib said Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu should be held responsible for "war crimes." Ayanna Pressley described Israel's treatment of Palestinians as "apartheid."
Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez blasted Biden's remarks about Israel's "right to defend itself."
Jewish Voice for Peace, a Jewish-American organization that advocates for Palestinian rights, demanded that Schumer and other lawmakers commit to ending U.S. military support for Israel .
Beth Miller, Jewish Voice for Peace Action's government affairs manager, said the "growing divide" within the political party is "truly unprecedented," crediting the work of the grass-roots Palestinian rights movement.
Fellow progressive Jewish-American group IfNotNow has repeatedly condemned Israel's actions as well. "Every unnecessary death has a story. This violence simply must end. Apartheid must end," the organization tweeted .

” Ayanna Pressley described Israel’s treatment of Palestinians as “apartheid.”
When you have a song sheet that has only one note on it, that is what you play.
This reads like a press release from the far far left wing.
Would be interesting to know how rank and file members of the Democrat Party think about the subject - without them being pre-cued on the topic by cynical manipulators in the so-called “news” media.
<< Schumer has not tweeted or publicly released a statement about the present conflict. >>
Cowardly JINO.
Jewish Voice for Peace and IfNotNow are both Soros creations.
Beth Miller, Jewish Voice for Peace Action’s government affairs manager, said the “growing divide” within the political party is “truly unprecedented,” crediting the work of the grass-roots Palestinian rights movement.
IfNotNow has repeatedly condemned Israel’s actions as well. “Every unnecessary death has a story. This violence simply must end. Apartheid must end,” the organization tweeted .
So The Squad really is in control of the House of Representatives. Nancy Pelosi and Chuck Schumer are mere figureheads now....
Much like the current occupant of the Oval Office.
Who’s really in charge now?
Left is gonna push all the New England Jews out of the Democrat party at this rate.
Whenever I see that bald headed jew hating idiot I want to vomit
“Jewish Voice for Peace, a Jewish-American organization that advocates for Palestinian rights...”
I don’t think that’s an accurate description.
The Obama Communust Cartel is in charge.
Unfortunately in America, there are plenty and I mean PLENTY of Jews who would gladly give Israel over to the Arabs in 5 seconds flat..we call them “Self hating Jews” kind of like white people who go on TV and proclaim that all white people are racist, meanwhile, they themselves are white..kind of like that
I BLAME THE GOP!!!
“Hamas is firing rockets from among civilians, targeting civilians”
WHY ISN’T EVERY REPUBLICAN SCREAMING FROM THE ROOFTOPS THAT HAMAS IS A TERRORIST ENTITY AND COMMITTING WAR CRIMES?
Make the RATS eat that and hard. Good God, this is such an easy win.
Has any ‘journalist’ ever asked them, ‘Why?’
I mean, a REAL journalist would!
Beware of all the above-named commie organizations with the word “Jewish” in them. They do not represent actual Jewish causes. It is unfortunate that over the last couple of decades, formerly actually Jewish organizations have been quietly taken over by libtards, using the name of the organization to garner funds and influence under a totally false flag.

The Commie/Democrat milk duds are always among the most obnoxious, stupid, ignorant and arrogant. Have you noticed?
If the Gaza Strip were a square in geographical shape, it would be slightly over 12 miles in a side.
No 141 Sq. Mi. is that valuable and can’t be replaced.
I’m sure China has 144 sq. mi. to house those Gaza Arabs.

A lot of leftist “Jewish” anti-Israel organizations have existed over time, some formed by communists, social-democrats, “progressives” (a fancy word of Marxists), and self-hating, anti-Israel Jews.
Just a few such groups include the following (from http://www.jstreet.org/page/j-street-conference-sessions), “The new address for Middle East Peace and security:, J Street Conference Sessions”, Oct. 25-28, 2009.
* J Street - reportedly funded and possibly established by George Soros and/or his funding thru his groups
* New Israel Fund - far-left anti-Israel lobby-like organization (exposed by Jean Rael Isaac and others in their monograph studies)
* Americans for Peace Now - mixed Marxist/left liberal organization that liked to make a lot of noise
* Peace Now and one of their operations, Settlement Watch
* Progressive Jewish Alliance
* Jews United for Justice (JUJ) - many similar groups had similar names including the old Communist Party USA’s front in Baltimore, Jews for Justice; DC’s red-led “Jews for Urban Justice”
* Just Vision
* Brit Tzedek v’Shalom
* JewsBote.org
* Robert Malley - Director, Middle East/North Africa Program, International Crisis Group. Father, Simon, was a Soviet operative, founder of a Communist Party of Egypt, published what was literally a KGB disinformation paper entitled “L’Asia-L’Afrique” in France Later expelled from France for communist activities, as “security risks” Son Robert HAS BEEN BOTH AN OBAMA AND NOW BIDEN MIDDLE EAST ADVISOR.
* Breira - 70’s far-left organization. Possibly involved Marxist -”Rabbi” Arthur Waskow” of the Hanoi Lobby
Americans for a Safe Israel (AFSI) published several good monographs on these leftist 70’s anti-Israel, neo-Marxist organizations.
J Street was just the latest in a long line of Marxist oriented or ideologically leftist anti-Israel organizations.
From the Washington Jewish Week newspaper, “Jewish Protesters join in Denouncing Bush”, Chana Tigay, Jewish Telegraphic Agency (JTA), article Sept. 2, 2004, about a protest in New York City which listed several leftist so-called Jewish organizations including “Jews for Racial and Economic Justice” (looks like it was taken from old CPUSA fronts SCEF, then Southern Organization Committee for Economic Justice (SOCEJ);
“Jews Against the Occupation”, often the title of Trotskyite anti-Israel fronts; and “Camp Kinderland”, Tolland, Mass (sounds like one of the old CPUSA summer indoctrination camps for CP members and sympathizers’ kids.
