I want to speak to something that Cory Booker, Senator Booker, said about Prime Minister Netanyahu of Israel. He said that Prime Minister Netanyahu of Israel is not a war criminal (or he won’t call him one), but he’s a horrible person because he funded the Qataris who funded Hamas because he inflicted devastation in Gaza. You know, Senator Booker, you really ought to know better and you position yourself as a friend of Israel.

You should know that Prime Minister Netanyahu was allowing the Qataris to serve as the intermediaries for humanitarian aid. You should know that Israel was defending itself when it came to October 7th and that casualties of war happened in war, and that Israel did everything possible to minimize them. You really shouldn’t use your platform to spread yet more lies.
