Rep. Pramila Jayapal slammed after demanding ‘balanced’ criticism when asked about Hamas rapes in heated interview

Rep. Pramila Jayapal (D-WA) was slammed by both Democrats and Republicans Sunday after calling for “balanced” criticism of the Israel-Hamas war when asked about progressives’ alleged silence over Hamas rapes of Israeli women.

Jayapal, chair of the progressive caucus, quickly condemned the sexual violence against Israeli women by Hamas militants on Oct. 7 before moving on to note that Israel has killed 15,000 Palestinians — two-thirds of whom are women and children — during an appearance on CNN’s “State of the Union.”

CNN host Dana Bash said she has noticed that progressive women have largely remained silent on the horrific sexual assaults Hamas committed during its deadly invasion of the Jewish State.

Jayapal replied that she didn’t think that accusation was entirely true.

“I think we always talk about the impact of war on women in particular… I’ve condemned what Hamas has done. I’ve condemned the actions absolutely — the rape, of course,” she said before shifting the conversation back to Israel and accusations that it has not been complying with international humanitarian law.

God help more USA voters to open their eyes and see the dark motives of Pramila Jayapal and people of her ilk (Ilhan Omar, Rashida Tlaib, Judy Chu, André Carson, etc..). This country is in such a low state right now because of these and other liberal democrat hypocrite/liars. God help us.

Okay, Pramila Jayapal, what do you think of this:

100 Hama-soles castrations for every hostage rape.

Is that balanced enough for you???

Dana Bash, however, is normally a dyed-in-the-wool leftard. She actually pushed back. Big Brother is not pleased with her.

Kowtowing to Palestinians including Hamas has been the process for 75 years.

The solution to the problem is to exterminate Hamas and all Palestinians who support the cancer.

The Representative is one such person who must be destroyed.

Where does this figure of 15,000 Palestinians killed during the Israeli anti-terror operation come from? Is it more bs made up by Hamas, like the propaganda about 500 killed by the IDF at the hospital actually rocketed by other muslims?

They did the same in Jenin back during Sharon’s campaign there. 500 dead! Mass grave! And the civilian deaths from an intense, hard-fought campaign of many days turned out to be only 25.

Progressive women are not progressive at all. They are self-serving and blind to the suffering of women who don’t want abortions or to brow beat men, just to live their lives with dignity. Those hypocrites have never lifted a finger to help women in true need, like those abused, raped, tortured, and murdered by terrorists. They are useless blowhards.

Sadly, Jayapal ‘represents’ From my state of Washington. Understand, she doesn’t represent my district. She was elected by the people up in the Seattle area, which says all you need to know.

The idea that voters need to open their eyes and see what it is and who it is they voted for is pretty much a lost cause up in the Seattle area.
