Rep. Tim Walberg (R-Mich.) has said his recent comments about treating the ongoing conflict in the Gaza Strip “like Nagasaki and Hiroshima” were not meant to convey support for nuclear strikes on the embattled territory, but were taken out of context and distorted.
Mr. Walberg was speaking with constituents at a town hall in Dundee, Michigan, last week when the discussion turned to the topic of U.S. deliveries of humanitarian aid to the civilian population in the Gaza Strip. A segment of the exchange was captured on video and shared on social media.
