Rep. Jamie Raskin, who spends all day and night trying to accuse Republicans of being Russian stooges, decided to go ahead and join with Iranian stooges to attack Israel.
Alongside Rep. Ilhan Omar, Rep. Rashida Tlaib, and, having sunk so low, Rep. Nancy Pelosi, Rep. Raskin signed on to a letter demanding that Biden “withhold any offensive weapons transfers” to Israel.
Such a move, coming as Iran may be preparing to launch an attack on Israel is a gift to Iran. And incidentally to its ally Russia, which Rep. Raskin has pretended to oppose all these years only as a front for attacking non-leftists.
In a press release, after an airstrike killed members of Jose Andres’ ‘aid group’ who were allegedly accompanied by an armed escort, Rep. Jamie Raskin quoted Andres’ who falsely accused Israel of “indiscriminate killing”. Then Rep. Raskin concluded with a call for a ceasefire which would allow Hamas to go on killing Israelis.
While people tend to pay more attention to Rep. Raskin for his political witch hunts aimed at opponents, he’s been attacking Israel’s campaign against Hamas for some time now while calling for a “ceasefire”.
Even right after Oct 7, Rep. Raskin’s statement warned Israel not to go too aggressively after Hamas.
In a truly extraordinary statement, Rep. Raskin argued that Israel should reward and encourage the Hamas use of human shields, contending that, “the knowledge that a terrorist enemy displays spectacular disrespect for the lives of civilians—by such means as using them as ‘human shields’ for embedded soldiers—imposes an obligation of extra care not to kill civilians who are being used in this way.”
This is who Rep. Raskin has always been, but the mask is increasingly coming off.
House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries asked Raskin to represent the Democratic caucus in defending Tlaib on the House floor against a GOP-led effort to censure the congresswoman, and in the end, Raskin’s allegiance to the Constitution won out.
It was never about the Constitution. It was about Rep. Raskin’s leftist politics which include hatred of America and Israel.
