“This tragedy in Gaza is 100 percent on Hamas,” Fetterman posted on the social platform X. “Stop using civilians and hospitals as shields, surrender, and release all remaining hostages — and this ends.”
Ocasio-Cortez responded to Fetterman in a post of her own.
“I dunno man. I care about little kids dying. I care about human rights. I care that billions of US tax dollars’ worth of weapons are carrying out unspeakable atrocities,” she responded. “I care enough for us to do better.”
“Hope this bleak dunk attempt gets you whatever it is you’re going for,” Ocasio-Cortez said.
On Monday, the New York Democrat said the horrors that were unfolding in Gaza were a result of a “completely unrestrained Netanyahu” government that the Biden administration arms.
Fetterman, who is a vocal advocate of Israel, posted a screenshot of The Hill’s article from Monday where Ocasio-Cortez criticized the Biden administration over the “unrestrained” Israeli government.
