Tlaib accused Netanyahu of atrocities against Palestinians, leading to a heated exchange with the Israeli ambassador accusing Tlaib’s allies in Hamas of burning children alive.
Known for her vocal criticism of Netanyahu, Tlaib protests his speeches in Congress, denouncing him as a war criminal committing genocide against Palestinians.
Her recent comments provoked backlash from Israel, emphasizing Tlaib’s contentious stance on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.
Rep. Rashida Tlaib is at the center of a debate with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
Despite criticism, Tlaib remains steadfast in her views, continuing to portray Netanyahu as a perpetrator of violence in the region.
