Pandering to the anti-Israel Left and Jewish Dems at the same time.
H.Res.1068, first reported on by JNS, is an absolute disgrace.
Rather than formulate a normal resolution condemning Hamas rapes on Oct 7, the resolution lists it, then sexual assaults in Sudan, Ukraine, Burma, Haiti and multiple other conflicts. Some of these name specific perpetrators, while others do not.
The resolution also states that, “whereas sexual violence against the LGBTQIA+ community during conflict is a component of gender-based violence, linked to the imposition of moral codes and societal norms that directly target the ability of all sexual and gender identities to live freely, according to LGBTQIA+ human rights organizations.”
Having already demonstrated that it’s impossible to condemn Hamas atrocities without also condemning everything else in the world, including the special status of LGBTQIA+, come two paragraphs contending that…
“Whereas decades of conflict with Israel have resulted in high levels of poverty, instability, and deteriorating living conditions in Gaza that have increased the risk of violence for Palestinian women and girls, according to the United Nations Population Fund, and the outbreak of war between Israel and Hamas and worsening humanitarian crisis in Gaza is compounding the risks women and children already faced;”
“Whereas 59 percent of Palestinian women and girls have reported experiencing at least one form of gender-based violence, according to the United Nations Population Fund, and news outlets have reported that Palestinian women have been harassed at checkpoints and while in custody, according to testimony submitted to the United Nations;”
This is beyond despicable.
The UNPF statistic refers to internal violence by Muslim men against Muslim women.
A UN official in the Gaza Strip demanded, on Monday, the provision of a legal framework to protect Palestinian women and girls from all forms of violence against them.
“There is a need to break the silence and involve men in this process of change,” she added, explaining that, according to the Palestinian official data about 59 per cent of married women in Palestine are exposed to direct violence by their husbands, with 66.8 per cent of the abused women being between 20-24 years old.
The resolution misleadingly connects this to the claim that “Palestinian women have been harassed at checkpoints”.
This resolution was put forward by Rep. Debbie Dingell, who has ties to Dearborn aka Hezbollahtown, and has taken the expected political positions. Co-sponsors include anti-Israel figures.
So why did Rep. Schiff and Rep. Goldman decide to co-sponsor it?
One answer is that they simply didn’t read it. Congressmembers often don’t read what they sign off on. Another is that they’re trying to pander to the anti-Israel Left and pro-Israel Dems at the same time. When their constituents complain, they’ll tell them that a resolution that this is the best resolution they could get.
And so the resolution captures the current state of the party, condemning both Hamas and Israel.

Schiff has his head so far up his back side
somehistory says
Idiots and perverts have no place making laws, rules and *resolutions* that affect others.
And the people of the ever-expanding alphabet are always claiming persecution and discrimination and their claims are taken at face value. No one investigates the claims, just as no one investigates the claims of mozlums when they say how they are being targeted by hate.
If someone goes into a police station and says he was attacked, his claims are investigated. Proof is sought through the testimony of others and video if cameras are in the area of the attack. If no proof is found, nothing is done.
But the mozlums and those they throw off buildings make claims of harassment, or mistreatment and the idiots like adam schiffty take them at face value. At the very least, they pretend to believe the lies and then act on that.
If hamas had managed to destroy all of Israel’s defenses, no one would be batting any eyes. But because Israel has chosen to fight back in self-defense, the lies just keep on coming.

“John Fetterman ‘Betrayed All of Us,’ Says Democrat PAC”
“A pro-Democrat political action committee (PAC) has withdrawn its support for Pennsylvania Senator John Fetterman, citing his vocal backing of Israel’s military campaign in Gaza.”

Westman says
Schiff, a friend of freedom and an example of how everyone should live an honest life, is not to be outdone in castigating Israel for securing its future in the gang-infested neighborhood. No, it takes a man who speaks with the confidence of an ascending god:
Chuck-socialist-Schumer just called for the removal of Netanyahu. Does that mean the CIA will soon be plotting? He says, removal through the next election(wink,wink) – is that just a dog whistle? He of course, in his official endlessness, has never been privy to the removal of a foreign head of state. The Deep State would never do such a thing….

Meaningless resolution going nowhere. Red green axis pandering.
tgusa says
Left wing Jews for Hitler. That’s a new one. Democrat Jews have received their talking points from their leftist issued cracker jack boxes. I dont mind if Schiff for brains wants to allow his women folk to be raped tortured and murdered but I do mind if his lunatic philosophy gets others raped tortured and murdered. Chuck U Schumer is also reading from his cracker jack memo. According to Chuck only right wing extremists will take action if their women folk are raped tortured and murdered. Chuck Adam and company will not. They are the epitome of modern cowardice. Chuck sez defending your women from rape torture and murder by islamonazis is a thing of the past, the world has changed. No Chuck, the world hasn’t changed but it is obvious that you are the same gutless cheese **** you have always been. I have one thing to say to them all, get the hell out of everyone else’s lives you disgusting imitations of men.
Lets have the two of them pack a bag and head on over to Gaza, and fellas, dont forget to take your wives.
࿗Infidel࿘ says
I wonder how many Jewish Americans will see the light in wake of this, as well as Sen Schumer’s statement today about calling for early elections in Israel? If they’re that devoid of self-respect that they continue to support jihadist leaders, maybe they deserve everything that happens to them in public – and more!
Wellington says
Democrats (and let me stress DEMOCRATS) like Schiff and Schumer, never mind others like Omar and Tlaib, are in the forefront of destroying great things like America, Israel, the rule of law, honesty overall and overall sanity and common sense.
The greatest enemy of what is left of the free world is not China, not Russia, not the forever dismal Islamic world, not the Mexican drug cartels, not the Labour Party in the UK, not the foolish idiot PM of Canada or what passes for a Pope nowadays, and not even the utterly pathetic Mainstream Media in the West. No, it is the Democratic Party of the USA. There is no greater enemy of what is left of freedom for humanity than the Democratic Party of America. None.

Dear Adam:
Yer yella.

I think that Pres. Trump had it right:
“Shifty” Schiff is a lying pencil neck with a watermelon head.

I loved that occasion when he seemingly deliberately misspelled his name as “Adam Schitt” on Twitter, back when he was POTUS and on Twitter

This toad will soon be a U.S. Senator and has dreams of eventually being a VP candidate.

Sadly yeah: I don’t see Steve Garvey getting even close to beating him. He was lucky to be in the top 2, but in the general, all those voters of Katie Porter and Barbara Lee will rally behind Schiff
Natasha B Badenov says
When maggots like Adam Schiff oppose Israel it offers further evidence that Israel is in the right. But I am all about peace and compromise. Lets compromise here. We can send Shiffty to Gaza so he can espouse his political schemes to his beloved terrorist friends in Gaza.
I want Schiff to become president (of Hamas).
Troybeam says
Why these elected officials cater to Islam and hate Israel is just wrong, Satan at work doing his best to destroy Israel…..it cannot and will not happen. Stand with Israel. Remember God is watching.
OLD GUY says
What is wrong with the people we elect into office? It seems like a great many of them are anti-American and wish to destroy our great country.
Why would anyone vote for Adam Schiff? All he has ever done is disrupt the running of our government with frivolous accusations and interference in the leadership of our country for political playground antics. Schiff just loves to play for the cameras, he’s worthless.
Roya Dardashti says
I’m very disappointed in Mr. Schiff.
