In an incredible display of political grandstanding and disregard for the truth, Rep. Jamaal Bowman (D-NY) has chosen to debase himself by attacking the miraculous hostage rescue operation carried out by the Israeli military and the Shin Bet security service. While most Americans were celebrating the joyful news of Fernando Marman and Luis Har’s rescue from the clutches of Hamas, Bowman took to Twitter to spew his hateful rhetoric.
Bowman’s ignorance is staggering. Not only did he conveniently omit the fact that two innocent lives were saved and terrorists were eliminated during the operation, but he also failed to mention the American lives lost at the hands of Hamas. As a member of Congress, shouldn’t he prioritize the well-being of American citizens?
Jowling @JamaalBowmanNY PULLED another fire alarm. This one gave us warning about how horrific #Progressives are regarding #Israel freeing hostages.
Jamaal Bowman Debases Himself With Response to Hostage Rescue Action and the Internet Lets Him Have It https://t.co/ZNe2RNuLWr

Instead, Bowman decided to parrot the left’s tired talking points and attack Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, simply because he’s on the right. It’s clear that Bowman is more interested in playing politics than acknowledging the enormous success of the rescue mission. But hey, who needs facts and gratitude when you can score political points, right?
The audacity of Bowman’s tweet is infuriating. He claimed that Netanyahu launched a “wave of attacks” without considering the context of the situation. Israel was dealing with terrorists who were holding innocent people hostage. Taking swift and decisive action to rescue the hostages was the only morally right course of action. But apparently, Bowman finds it more important to criticize Israel’s self-defense efforts than to acknowledge their success.
Unsurprisingly, social media users quickly condemned Bowman for his shameful response. People from all walks of life called him out for his despicable disregard for the truth and his blind partisanship. It’s heartening to see that so many Americans can see through the smokescreen of Bowman’s hateful rhetoric.
In the end, the successful rescue operation speaks for itself. While Bowman and his far-left allies may choose to ignore the heroic actions of the Israeli military, the rest of us can celebrate the fact that innocent lives were saved. It’s a shame that Bowman couldn’t join in on the celebration and instead chose to debase himself with his divisive and misleading remarks.
