In a shocking and despicable act of vandalism, the South Texas office of US Rep. Monica De La Cruz (R-Texas) was defaced by pro-Hamas sympathizers furious over the congresswoman’s unwavering support for Israel. The Republican representative has been a vocal advocate for Israel, standing in solidarity with the nation as it defends itself against the heinous attacks from Hamas terrorists.
The terrorists’ aggression on October 7th resulted in the tragic deaths of 1,400 innocent Israelis, sending shockwaves through communities near the Gaza Strip. These barbaric acts of violence, including the murder of innocent civilians and the ruthless targeting of American lives, cannot be understated. Yet, despite the brutality of these attacks, many pro-Palestinian supporters have callously condemned Israel’s necessary defensive measures, conveniently ignoring the thousands of lives lost due to Hamas’s relentless bombardment of Gaza.
