Friend, Are we really arguing over a free nation’s right to self-defense against terrorists murdering children?? |
I couldn’t believe it, so I knew I had to make a bold statement. That’s why I wore my Israel Defense Forces uniform in the Halls of Congress after my progressive colleagues like Rashida Tlaib refused to condemn the Hamas terrorist attacks. She is also currently hanging a Palestinian flag outside of her U.S. congressional office.
After I nearly gave my life for our country while serving in the U.S. Army, I chose to volunteer alongside the Israel Defense Forces (IDF). I felt called to serve again because Israel and America believe in freedom and democracy. I felt — and still feel — that’s a common cause worth fighting for.
I am the only Member in Congress to serve with both the United States Army and the Israel Defense Forces. I will always stand with Israel.
So, I wore my IDF uniform, because if Tlaib has her flag, I’ll have my uniform. It’s my way of saying, “How difficult is it to condemn Hamas for beheading babies and kidnapping Holocaust survivors?”
We cannot let Israel face her enemies alone. For me, and for all freedom-loving Americans, standing with Israel—for democracy and human rights—will always be an issue of right versus wrong.
I need your help to stop the Squad and their radical agenda. Let’s make sure America is on the right side. Please chip in $15 or more today to help me through this fight. |
As a private citizen, a soldier, a volunteer, and now a Congressman, I’ve always worked to strengthen the bond between the United States and Israel. The national security of the United States is directly tied to the strength of Israel! |
