Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) slammed the Democrats on March 20, saying their issue is not with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, but rather with Israel.

In a speech on the Senate floor, Mr. McConnell said Democrats are out of touch with the “overwhelming support” Israelis have for their military operations in Gaza in response to the terrorist group Hamas’ attack on the Jewish state on Oct. 7, shooting and killing Israelis, raping women, and taking people hostage. It was the deadliest single-day massacre of Jews since the Holocaust.
