Bowman: We Should ‘Build a Palestinian State’ with Our Resources Instead of ‘Peace Through Strength’ Approach
Breitbart ^ | 06/19/2024 | IAN HANCHETT

Posted on 06/20/2024 7:10:00 AM PDT by ChicagoConservative27

On Wednesday’s broadcast of CBS’s “The Late Show,” Rep. Jamaal Bowman (D-NY) responded to a question on America’s role in the Israel-Hamas conflict by stating that “We have a foreign policy that pretty much follows the idea of peace through strength, and what that means is we need to have a very strong military so that we can scare other countries into doing what we say. I wish we would use our wealth and our resources and our means to lead with diplomacy.” And we should “build a Palestinian state” with our resources.

Host Stephen Colbert asked, “What do you think the United States’ role is in exercising what power and influence we have to try to make this peace come about or to achieve a two-state solution? We’ve been trying it for so many years, we’ve been involved for so many years. Ultimately, what do you think our job is, and how can we best use our position in the world?”

The leftists have reached a state that even the most idiotic idea won’t be stopped by the American people. The country, in most places, has surrendered.

The globalist, Neo-marxist, woke, massive debt-spending DC ass-clown solution.

Bowman looks at Palestinians like he sees drug addicts and trannies in NY City - a chance to cast his corruption and influence even wider.

How about building a Pali State in the country of Jordan. They would be right at home there. Oh wait! That is where they came from! Can’t have that.

Come on Chicago. It goes without saying. This is the guy who set off the fire alarm. Furthermore the primary voters will take him out won’t they? The only thing left for republicans to do is expulsion for the alarm episode. Would our people do it? Hardly. They’ll let him finish his term and go quietly-not the way to go in this environment. They need to know we mean business-won’t happen but we’ll play along when it comes to Santos-cowards. That’s the problem.

Yes.

We hear “idiot wants to chase a pipe dream” or maybe “hater wants to kill Israel” but what he and his hear is “we want another massive slush fund” (and those other things too)

"..we can scare other countries into doing what we say."

Ruling the rest of the world by intimidation.

How very typically non-liberal regressive neanderthal of bowman

Why would it be our responsibility to ‘build a Palestinian state’?

Yeah, Nation Building worked out so well in Iraq and Afghanistan.

I don’t care if the people they call Palestinians have a homeland, but they can’t have Israel, not to mention that it would be one hell of a s***hole.

Hamas...descendants of “Haman” of Persian (Iranian) leadership in the book of Esther.
God has a plan ...and Hamas is not part of it. They are phonies who have no ownership of Israel, and God is going to protect his people.

And BTW..... Hamas wants to continue their Satanic plan....here ya go!

“Peace without strength”. What a load of bs. AS long as you appear weak, you are a target.

We already tried to build a Palestinian State in Gaza. They used the money to build tunnels, buy arms, and commit terror against Israel. At the same time the top people in Hamas enriched themselves and live in luxury as their corruption is as great as their hatred of Jews.

It was already built. It's Jordan.
