AOC Gets Toasted By Epic Fact Check

Progressive “Squad” member Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) was recently hit with a significant fact-check from NewsNation anchor Chris Cuomo following her comments in the aftermath of the Israeli pager attack against Hezbollah. Calling out AOC’s critical remarks toward Israel, Cuomo declared that the liberal congresswoman was “dead wrong.”

 

Speaking about the attack carried out by Israeli counterintelligence officials, which saw thousands of pager devices detonate in the hands of Hezbollah terrorists believed to be supporting Hamas, AOC claimed the attack was a “war crime” that justified international prosecution. Ocasio-Cortez said in a tweet, “This attack clearly and unequivocally violates international humanitarian law and undermines US efforts to prevent wider conflict.”

 

 

Addressing AOC’s comments, Cuomo said, “She started by accusing Israel of a war crime for what they did to members of Hezbollah in Beirut, and then, asking for an investigation, accused them of a war crime, asked for an investigation.” He added, “Then she decided to get truthy and show her claim that the exploding pagers were ‘clearly’ in violation of U.S. policy.”

 

Citing the tweet, the NewsNation anchor continued, “‘This attack clearly unequivocally violates international humanitarian law, undermines U.S. efforts to prevent a wider conflict.’ And then she said it violates U.S. policy. Clearly. Israel is not one of the United States, so they don’t follow our laws or rules. Second, if the representative was suggesting by that comparison that the United States should therefore not support Israel, good luck with that. And then, here’s what really bothers me about this salvo: She’s dead wrong. This is why you don’t accuse and then go in search of a crime.”
