OPINION:
Former House Speaker Rep. Nancy Pelosi, California Democrat, has some nerve calling on Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to resign due to the ongoing “invasion” of Gaza, a supposedly growing humanitarian crisis there and what she says is Mr. Netanyahu’s lack of support for a two-state solution.
I was not aware Mrs. Pelosi was a citizen of Israel and a member of the Knesset! Since when does any member of Congress have a right to tell another nation’s leader to resign from office? Israel has every right to preserve its security by eliminating Hamas. The current crisis would not be taking place had Hamas not launched its murderous Oct. 7 terrorist attack.
Mrs. Pelosi has lost her way by not supporting a secure U.S. border with Mexico and Canada. We have no idea how many terrorists, criminals, gang members, drug dealers and pedophiles were among the 7 million illegal immigrants who have come into our nation without first being vetted.
Mrs. Pelosi no longer really stands with Israel. Her constituents and financial campaign contributors should return the favor by pulling their support in this year’s general election.
