Just 2 House members did not vote in favor of a resolution affirming Israel’s right to exist

However, the resolution made no mention of Palestinians — who have their own historical claims in the region — even as it stated that Jewish people are “native to the Land of Israel.”

The resolution also states that “denying Israel’s right to exist is a form of antisemitism” — which Massie took issue with.

“Antisemitism is deplorable, but expanding it to include criticism of Israel is not helpful,” Massie wrote on X.

Still predicting that they’ll adopt the IHRA definition of Antisemitism during the Biden regime!

Shocked when she heard this, she told me that “
