Michigan Congressman Faces Backlash for Suggesting Nuking Gaza

GOP Rep. Tim Walberg suggested that the conflict in Gaza should be over quickly "like Nagasaki and Hiroshima" and opposed sending humanitarian aid to the besieged enclave, sparking widespread criticism from fellow politicians for his controversial and insensitive remarks. Walberg later clarified that he used a metaphor to convey the need for swift resolution of wars in Israel and Ukraine, but his comments were condemned as reckless, horrific, and inhumane, with calls for his resignation and apologies.
