Rep. Derrick Van Orden, R-Wis., appeared Monday on Newsmax to describe some of the horrific images he witnessed in Israel on a fact-finding mission in the wake of the Oct. 7 Hamas terror attacks that killed 1,400 people.
"The atrocities committed by Hamas are simply difficult to describe," he said on "National Report." "It was so incredibly horrific."
A former U.S. Navy SEAL and combat medic, Van Orden said in all his multiple combat tours on several different continents, he has never seen anything as bad as what he saw in Israel. He said the story "has to be told again and again because some people are denying that it took place. Pro-Palestinian and anti-Israel marches have taken place across the country and around the world. Posters with pictures of the more than 200 hostages still trapped in Gaza have been torn down.
The Biden Administration and the Democrat Party writ large need to come out and condemn Hamas most forcefully, he told Newsmax.
