Bowman: ‘We Need a Free Palestine So Hamas Then Ceases to Need to Exist’
Breitbart ^ | 05/30/2024 | IAN HANCHETT

Posted on 05/30/2024 6:13:12 AM PDT by ChicagoConservative27

On Wednesday’s broadcast of “CNN NewsNight,” Rep. Jamaal Bowman (D-NY) said that Hamas can’t be eliminated and the idea they’re built on can’t be killed off and “We need a free Palestine so Hamas then ceases to need to exist.”

Bowman began by saying, “We condemn the attacks of October 7, but we also condemn everything that has happened since October 7.”

Later, he added, “I know Benjamin Netanyahu, Ben-Gvir, and others, they want to wipe out the Palestinians. They want them to either leave or they will kill them. I know that’s what they want. And it’s horrible and horrific and evil to think that they will stay in this war and this conflict through the end of the year, to do what? How many people in Hamas have you killed? And have you killed the idea that Hamas is built upon? If we don’t make overtures and do real work with policy and resources towards peace and a free Palestine, there’s going to be another Hamas being nurtured during this time. You can’t kill them off, you can’t kill the idea. We need a free Palestine so Hamas then ceases to need to exist. That’s what we need.”

As he turned to open the door by pulling the fire alarm.

Jamaal, you dolt, Hamas doesn’t exist to create a free palestine - they exist to exterminate the Jews. (capitalization is intentional)

They elected them.

With a really BIG margin.

This is our problem. A really large percentage of the population really wants people like this in office. In some areas they are an absolute majority of the people. They are basically thieves, and they elect other thieves into office believing they can get a nice cut of the swag taken from others.

That works for a while. We are passing the limits where it stops working. "Slowly and then all at once" is what we are sliding towards.

Democracy does not have a solution for this kind of problem.

Fire alarm guy. Setting off a fire alarm is his idea of how to prevent a vote. Hard pass on any of his other ideas.

Correct.

You are dealing with two things; human nature (and there is not much we can do about that) and culture, (quite a bit we can do about that).

There are two types of culture. The "I would like a goat" and the "Kill my neighbor's goat".

The people who want a goat can have a democracy, the people who want to kill their neighbor's goat can not.
