US Vetoes UN Resolution for Ceasefire in Gaza, Drawing Criticism for Complicity in Israeli 'War Crimes'

The US has blocked a UN resolution calling for an immediate cease-fire in Gaza, while several Democrat members of Congress face scrutiny for their past support of the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR), whose executive director recently made controversial comments regarding Hamas' attacks on Israel. The White House condemned the comments and removed CAIR as a partner in fighting antisemitism. Some lawmakers who previously supported CAIR remained silent when asked about the executive director's stance on the attacks.
