AOC criticizes Biden statement of support for Israel as siding with 'occupation'

2021-05-14

[FOXNEWS] U.S. Rep. Alexandria Boom Boom Ocasio-Cortez
Dem Congressgirl from da Bronx in Noo Yawk and leader of the Mean Girl Caucus in Congress. One of the Great Minds of the 21st Century, she is known as much for her innaleck as for her dance moves. She is all in favor of socialism, even though she's fuzzy on the details. She was the inventor of the Green New Deal, though she doesn't talk about it much anymore...
, D-N.Y., criticized President Joe Biden

...... 46th president of the U.S. We hold these truths to be self-evident. All men and women created ... by the — you know — you know, the thing......
over his Wednesday statement of support for Israel amid escalating violence with Hamas, a contraction of the Arabic words for "frothing at the mouth",, claiming he gave little context for what stoked the tensions and was consequently "siding with occupation."

Biden told news hounds Israel has a right to defend itself "when you have thousands of rockets flying into your territory."

Ocasio-Cortez tweeted that Biden had failed to mention the pending evictions of dozens of Paleostinians from their homes in East Jerusalem in favor of Israelis and the Israeli police raid of the al-Aqsa mosque that left hundreds of worshippers hurt as an instigator to Hamas’ rocket attacks.

She said statements that don’t recognize Israel’s role in the violence "dehumanize Paleostinians & imply the US will look the other way at human rights
...which are often intentionally defined so widely as to be meaningless...
violations. It’s wrong."

#2 Isn't AOC 'occupying' the US? Doesn't she 'belong' in Puerto Rico? Or Mars?

[Her grandparents and mother were born in P.R.]

Not to mention other countries occupying former German territory. Who occupied Carthage?
