Ilhan Omar criticizes US support for ceasefire while providing weapons to Israel
Pro-Palestinian delegates were denied a chance to speak at the Democratic National Convention, prompting Ilhan Omar to question the US administration’s stance on ceasefire support and weapon supply to Israel.
Despite appeals for a Palestinian-American speaker, the DNC refused, leading to a sit-in outside the venue. Ilhan Omar called on the administration to stop sending weapons for a genuine ceasefire.
Representative Cori Bush also highlighted the consequences of US-funded weapons on Gaza’s population. The delegates remain critical of the Biden administration’s approach to the conflict and ceasefire negotiations.
