(BPR) Members of the cadre of Democrat House members known as “The Squad” took a short break from their hating on Israel to extend their warm wishes for Hanukkah in one of the most brazen examples of hypocrisy this year.
Several of the left-wing lawmakers, who have spent nearly two months accusing the Israeli government of conducting a campaign of genocide during its military offensive against the Hamas terror organization that massacred over a thousand of its citizens, took to the X platform to act like they really care about people of the Jewish faith during their traditional holiday season.
“Tonight, I wish all who celebrate the festival of lights a very happy Hanukkah,” wrote Rep. Pramila Jayapal (D-Wash.) who is not technically a “Squad” member but is an Israel hater to the bone. “In this dark time, we must stand with the Jewish community and against antisemitism and hate in all forms. Let’s continue to fight back as we strive for peace, security, and justice for all.”

Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-Mich.) who routinely parrots Hamas propaganda including the slogan “from the river to the sea,” which calls for the eradication of the Jewish state and the genocide of its people, also extended her holiday wishes.
Happy Hanukkah to our Jewish neighbors in #12thDistrictStrong and beyond.
May this be a time of love and community for you and your loved ones.

Some, but not all of the others also joined in:
As many light the first candle on the menorah, I’m sending our Jewish neighbors in St. Louis and beyond love and light.
Happy Hanukkah! Always remember, your Congresswoman loves you.

Happy first night of #Hanukkah to our Jewish siblings in the #MA7 & across the world.
The celebration carries extra meaning for so many this year, and I wish everyone light, joy, and peace this holiday season.

But the “Hamas caucus” wasn’t fooling X users who lit them up like a Christmas tree.
The definition of the word,
“Chutzpah!”As a member of Congress, I voted NO against a resolution condemning antisemitism and recognizing the right of our ally, Israel, to exist.
Then, a few days later, wished the same people, Happy Hanukkah.
It would be laughable, if you’re… https://t.co/ijasL9fnRX
