While Republicans have traditionally been more supportive of Israel than their Democratic counterparts, members of the House GOP have become more critical of the country in recent months, especially since reports are emerging about the recent starvation of civilians in Gaza.
The most recent war in Gaza began after the terrorist group Hamas launched a murderous attack on an Israeli music festival on Oct. 7, 2023, and left 1,200 people dead and more than 250 people taken hostage, some of whom were reportedly raped and tortured. The war has been ongoing amid attempts by the U.S. and other countries to end it.
More than 30 other countries issued a joint statement last week, calling for an immediate end to the war and the release of all remaining hostages.
Trump on images of starving children: “You can’t fake that”
In recent days, there have been reports of a humanitarian crisis in Gaza with many innocent civilians, including children, starving. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu denied there was starvation taking place in Gaza, contradicting President Donald Trump’s take on the matter.
Accurate information is difficult to come by, because many legacy media platforms rely on “official” information from the Gazan Health Ministry, which is an arm of Hamas. Nonetheless, members of various NGO’s appear to confirm — to one degree or another — the size and scope of human suffering.
