“Chuck Schumer’s speech was an act of courage, an act of love, for Israel, and I wish the prime minister would read the whole speech, because he speaks with great vehemence about the need to defeat Hamas. He is concerned about the weakness of the Palestinian Authority and the very very dangerous attitude of the right wing Israeli government.
Former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi on Sunday praised Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer’s recent remarks calling for a new election in Israel as “an act of love for Israel.” “The prime minister’s presentation proved the necessity of Chuck Schumer’s speech. Chuck Schumer’s speech was an act of courage, an act of love for Israel,” Pelosi told CNN’s Dana Bash on “State of the Union” immediately after Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu criticized the comments.
She also criticized Netanyahu for attacking Schumer over his suggestion that Israel hold new elections, considering that Netanyahu has previously inserted himself into US politics. “It’s curious to me to see Netanyahu talk the way he does when he tried to interfere in American elections,” Pelosi said, referring to Netanyahu criticizing then-President Barack Obama and the JCPOA — better known as the Iran Nuclear Deal — in front of the US Congress.
