EXCERPT:

TAPPER: “You made comments to him and also you tweeted: 'We must have the same level of accountability and justice for all victims of crimes against humanity. We have seen unthinkable atrocities committed by the U.S., Hamas, Israel, Afghanistan, and the Taliban.' Ultimately, Democratic leaders said that equating the U.S. and Israel with Hamas and the Taliban 'foments prejudice.' And as you know, a group of Jewish House Democrats wrote a letter to President Biden saying that accusing Israel of acts of terror, as you and other members of the Squad have done, is anti-Semitic. Do you regret these comments?"

OMAR: "I don't."
