AOC blasted for past anti-Israel comments after anti-Semitic terror attack

Well, folks, Rep. Alexandria Obviously-Communist stepped in it again. This time, the backlash is as scorching as a summer sidewalk in D.C. 

After a terror attack outside the Capital Jewish Museum last week, the darling of the Dems tried to play the sympathy card on X, condemning the attack and tossing in some boilerplate about anti-Semitism. But the internet wasn’t buying her crocodile tears, simply because her track record on Israel reads like a Hamas fan club newsletter.

Here’s what she posted: “Absolutely nothing justifies the murder of innocents. I am devastated by the killing of two people outside an@AJCGlobal event here in Washington. Our prayers are with the victims, families, and loved ones of all impacted. As we await more details, we must be clear that hatred has no home here. Antisemitism is a threat to all we hold dear as a society. It must be confronted and rooted out everywhere.”

Sounds nice, right? Except the X peanut gallery smelled the hypocrisy from a mile away. One commenter nailed it: “Match-lighter Condemns Blaze.” Boom! That’s gonna leave a mark.

Arsen Ostrovsky, CEO of The International Legal Forum, wasn’t here for AOC’s vague platitudes either. He clapped back: “‘Two people’? They were two JEWS. And more specifically, worked at the Israeli Embassy. These are pertinent details. Maybe you ought to be more mindful of your relentless inflammatory rhetoric, that only emboldens the kinds of perpetrators from tonight’s heinous attack.” 

Then there’s Terry Schilling, head honcho at the American Principles Project, who went straight for the jugular: “You need to apologize for your complicity. Stochastic terrorism and all.” Translation: AOC, your anti-Israel word vomit has consequences.

Stephen Miller, a big brain over at The Spectator, pointed out the inconvenient truth: the shooter reportedly yelled “Free Palestine” after gunning down Israeli Yaron Lischinsky and American Sarah Lynn Milgrim. 

There you go; AOC’s favorite protest chant was the soundtrack to a double murder. Now that's embarrassing if you have a soul.

Let’s rewind. AOC’s been waving the “Free Palestine” flag for years, even excusing Palestinian violence back in 2019. Her logic? Israel’s “occupation” of Judea and Samaria—you know, that little corner of Israel where terrorism is basically a local pastime—forces people to riot. 

“I believe that injustice is a threat to the safety of all people, because once you have a group that is marginalized and marginalized and marginalized — once someone doesn’t have access to clean water, they have no choice but to riot, right?” she blabbered on “Ebro in the Morning.” Heavy thoughts for a dolt.

Fast forward to March 2024, and she’s still at it, accusing Israel of “genocide” in Gaza after Hamas pulled off the deadliest attack on Jews since the Holocaust. 

“As we speak, in this moment, 1.1 million innocents in Gaza are at famine’s door,” she bloviated on the House floor. “A famine that is being intentionally precipitated through the blocking of food and global humanitarian assistance by leaders in the Israeli government.” She added, “If you want to know what an unfolding genocide looks like, open your eyes.”

So how has the Gazan population gone from between 60,000 and 80,000 in 1948, to 2,100,000 today if Israel is committing genocide? Isn't that what Hamas was trying to do to the Jews on October 7, 2023? Isn't Hamas stealing aide from Israel and the US intended for Gazans and either selling it at high prices and keeping what they need for themselves?

Here’s the kicker: Israel’s been letting hundreds of aid trucks roll into Gaza daily, only for Hamas to swipe the goods like it’s a Black Friday sale. The UN’s distribution system? A terrorist’s dream. Israel recently eased up on aid restrictions, but guess what? Armed goons are still looting the trucks once they cross the border. Shocker.

AOC’s sanctimonious posturing might play well with her Brooklyn barista fanbase, but when your rhetoric sounds like it could be chanted at a terror rally, maybe it’s time to rethink your brand. The X mob’s got her number, and they’re not letting her skate on this one. Pass the popcorn.
