Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is helping a liberal Zionist group whitewash a war criminal responsible for atrocities against Palestinians.
Next month the progressive standard-bearer will be speaking at an Americans for Peace Now event commemorating the 25th anniversary of the assassination of Israeli Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin.
“Rabin’s legacy inspires us all,” Americans for Peace Now stated in their announcement of the event.
The lobby group urged people to register to hear Ocasio-Cortez “reflect on fulfilling the courageous Israeli leader’s mission for peace and justice today in the US and Israel.”
The only feeling this pack of lies should inspire is disgust, especially at Ocasio-Cortez’s willing participation.
