WITT I appreciate the ░░░░░░░░ the passion with which ░░░░░░░░ re delivering this but ░░░░░░░░ we forget what happened ░░░░░░░░ October 7th Bowman Never ░░░░░░░░ Inhumanity of that massacre ░░░░░░░░ 1 200 Jews just ░░░░░░░░ as peacefully as they ░░░░░░░░ close to the border ░░░░░░░░ mean that itself was ░░░░░░░░ reprehensible and barbaric That ░░░░░░░░ something the Israeli people ░░░░░░░░ not forgotten Bowman Absolutely ░░░░░░░░ we immediately condemned those ░░░░░░░░ by Hamas on October ░░░░░░░░ as we should but ░░░░░░░░ cannot condemn October 7th ░░░░░░░░ then condone the killing ░░░░░░░░ civilian women and children ░░░░░░░░ s happening right now ░░░░░░░░ history didn t start ░░░░░░░░ October 7th There was ░░░░░░░░ blockade in Gaza prior ░░░░░░░░ that There was the ░░░░░░░░ up of Hamas by ░░░░░░░░ Netanyahu prior to that ░░░░░░░░ is an occupation military ░░░░░░░░ for decades in the ░░░░░░░░ Bank right now As ░░░░░░░░ matter of fact 400 ░░░░░░░░ have been killed in ░░░░░░░░ West Bank 400 Palestinians ░░░░░░░░ October 7th West Bank ░░░░░░░░ nothing to do with ░░░░░░░░ happened on October 7th ░░░░░░░░ And so we have ░░░░░░░░ be honest about the ░░░░░░░░ conversation and not just ░░░░░░░░ one thing over the ░░░░░░░░ WITT And I think ░░░░░░░░ is very fair to ░░░░░░░░ that tensions have risen ░░░░░░░░ the entire region to ░░░░░░░░ point there about the ░░░░░░░░ there and attacks on ░░░░░░░░
