Jamal Bowman, a member of “The Squad” communist House Democrat from New York who’s biggest accomplishment is pulling the fire alarm in the House in order to delay a vote is now demanding that the US “welcome” Palestinian refugees. Need any more reasons to hate New York? Bowman AND AOC!?
Democrat New York Rep. Jamaal Bowman has called on the United States to “welcome” Palestinian refugees as experts predict that one million people fleeing the Gaza Strip will need new homes.
“Fifty percent of the population in Gaza are children,” the congressman told the New York Post on Saturday. “The international community as well as the United States should be prepared to welcome refugees from Palestine while being very careful to vet and not allow members of Hamas.”
His call for the United States to take in Palestinians came after Israel gave residents of northern Gaza a 24-hour warning to evacuate to the southern portion of the strip. Over 400,000 Gazans have fled their homes as of Saturday morning, the Times of Israel reported.
Egypt has closed its border with Gaza and is unwilling to receive Palestinian refugees.
