HAMAS CAUCUS: Rep. Pocan: Iron Dome Means Israel Shouldn't Fight Back
2021-05-22
[FRONTPAGEMAG] The Hamas, the braying voice of Islamic Resistance®, Caucus of the Democrats has been in a sharp race to the bottom with bad takes outstripping bad takes.

No one, including AOC, may ever be able to top this tweet from Kansas State Rep Aaron Coleman, (Rose Twitter) "In my humble progressive Jewish opinion: Israel has forfeited the right to Independence. Walking into mosques and killing unarmed people is another war crime committed by this apartheid genocidal nation. The solution: full embargo of Israel until they join U.S as 51st state."

Rep. Mark Pocan, (House Democrat - unfortunately) whose shtick has been hating Israel long before the Squad ever got here has been trying.

"I’ve always supported the Iron Dome. Because the idea is when a missile comes in, if you take it out, no one’s been killed on either side, and there’s de-escalation," Pocan argued. "If you use it for that purpose, then you still send 20 times the number of missiles back, that’s not the intention."

According to Pocan, the Iron Dome defense system should be used as a passive defense system that eliminates the need to fight back.

The Iran
...a theocratic Shiite state divided among the Medes, the Persians, and the (Arab) Elamites. Formerly a fairly civilized nation ruled by a Shah, it became a victim of Islamic revolution in 1979. The nation is today noted for spontaneously taking over other countries' embassies, maintaining whorehouses run by clergymen, involvement in international drug trafficking, and financing sock puppet militias to extend the regime's influence. The word Iran is a cognate form of Aryan. The abbreviation IRGC is the same idea as Stürmabteilung (or SA). The term Supreme Guide is a the modern version form of either Duce or Führer or maybe both. They hate Jews Zionists Jews. Their economy is based on the production of oil and vitriol...
Lobby and the Moslem Brüderbund may not have troubled to inform Pocan that rockets still get through and Israelis, including children, have died.

A passive defense system stops some attacks, but it doesn't eliminate the need to stop the attacks at the source.

Pocan's argument is that a cop with a bulletproof vest doesn't need to shoot the guy who's firing at him. And I'm sure the police defunders will make that argument soon enough.
