Dem Rep. Gottheimer: Tlaib Spread Disinformation that Causes ‘More Antisemitism’ and More ‘Terror and Death’

‘I think there has to be [a] consequence for saying things that will lead to destruction, antisemitism, and terror’

EXCERPT:

GOTTHEIMER: "I'll be honest with you, you know, I've really grappled with the fact that over the last weeks, one, Ms. Tlaib came out a couple weeks ago after the hospital bombing, which was awful, the bombing next to the parking lot, but there was news that came out on many stations that that actually was Israel doing it, and the truth came out thereafter, not listening to Hamas's intelligence, but to American intelligence, and that was launched by Islamic Jihad, that bomb that hit next to the hospital. And I asked Ms. Tlaib to please take down the false information, the disinformation that it was Israel that had bombed that hospital. And as you know, she is yet to take that information down or change the story there. And these things have a huge impact on the rest of the world. Millions of people listen to what members of Congress like Ms. Tlaib say, and that disinformation leads to more anti-Semitism, I think it leads to more destruction and terror and death. And now claiming that, you know, and saying that — and repeating 'River to the sea' on a video that she put out, including saying the president of the United States supports genocide, those things are just unacceptable and I think there has to be consequence for saying things that will lead to destruction, anti-Semitism and terror."
