"Ocasio-Cortez Addresses Accusations of Genocide Against Israel and Biden"

Rep. Ocasio-Cortez stated that Americans should not exclude someone from public discourse for accusing Israel of genocide, citing widespread concern among Americans about Israel's actions. She also mentioned the loss of public support for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's government and highlighted the International Court of Justice's order for Israel to prevent genocidal acts against Palestinians in Gaza. Ocasio-Cortez and other progressives have faced criticism for comparing Israeli treatment of Palestinians to Apartheid South Africa while expressing support for Palestinians, but she has also condemned Hamas' attacks and advocated for a cease-fire in the Israel-Hamas conflict.
