I think Jayapal was right to clarify her remarks on Israel-Palestine, but the coordinated attacks on her neatly illustrate her point about the organized opposition to Palestinian rights. The aggressive enforcement of ideological conformity is driven by fear of actual debate. Anyone with eyes can see that the violent, discriminatory one-state reality of Israel-Palestine is not reflected at all in the pro-Israel talking points that get frantically cranked out in moments like this. People know this stuff is not on the level. We need to address that.

She waffled badly on an important subject. The sharks smelled blood and immediately went after her. If you’re going to call out Israeli racism, then you better be succinct and stick to your guns. Her retraction made little sense.

really? doubling down on "((they're))) trying to Silence me!" a classic antisemitic trope. she's being attacked for saying something antisemitic in public, just like RFK Jr, an advocate of Palestinian Rights, Jan Schakowsky, isn't under attack, she was protested for being Jewish
