Pro-Israel activists on Wednesday at the US Capitol confronted Reps. Rashida Tlaib and Ilhan Omar over their support for Hamas.
According to Ynet, the activists, who wore shirts advocating for the release of the hostages, attempted to “gift” symbolic pagers to the congresswomen in an allusion to Israel’s exploding-pager attacks on Hezbollah terrorists.
“Why do you stand with Hamas? Why don’t you condemn Hamas? Just say you condemn Hamas,” one protester could be heard telling Omar.
As the elevator door closed on Omar, she could be seen responding to the protesters, “F— you.”

CONFESSION: Yes, that is me asking Ilhan Omar if she knew that it was the 404th day of Hostages in Captivity in Gaza, including 7 Americans. I asked her to simply give me a quote that I could use as a filmmaker!pic.twitter.com/D06A9qJWNx
