The American Israel Public Affairs Committee has escalated its attacks against 'Squad' House Democrat Jamaal Bowman.
‘s June 25 primary, Elisha Wiesel claimed that Bowman’s criticism of Israel could lead to a situation like the one his father fled. The video started out lamenting Hamas’s Oct. 7 surprise attack against Israel, in which 1,200 Israelis were killed in just a few hours.
“Now we must ask who each of us are in this moment,” Wiesel said. “Who are the anti-Semites engaged in falsely accusing Israel of genocide? Who stands up to oppose them, and who stands by silently? We know where Jamal Bowman stands.” “He co-sponsored a resolution calling the founding of Israel a ‘catastrophe,'” Wiesel continued. “He voted against condemning‘ brutal attack, and Jamal Bowman repeated Hamas lies, denying that women were raped and babies were butchered.”
“My father taught that anti-Semitism begins with lies and conspiracy theories, and it ends with violence that consumes any society that tolerates it,” Wiesel concluded. “So I ask you, will you stand up to Jamal Bowman’s lies and conspiracy theories? Or will you sit by silently?” The ad was aired by AIPAC’s super PAC, United Democracy Project, which has spent a large amount on targeting anti-Israel Democrats in their primaries this election.
