  • PIJ: Evacuation warning for Khan Younis a continuation of genocide

Mohammad al-Hajj Musa, the spokesperson for the Palestinian Islamic Jihad (PIJ), stated that the continued brutal aggression on the Gaza Strip and the warning to evacuate Khan Younis is a continuation of the genocidal war against Palestinians, all in plain view of the world as it stands idly by.

On another note, Musa condemned the decision of the US Congress to consider "anti-Zionism a form of anti-semitism."

He said the decision, in its content, places "Israel" above accountability and responsibility, providing additional political cover for the entity's crimes, especially considering the timing, in reference to the ongoing genocide against Palestinians.

Elsewhere in his remarks, the spokesperson emphasized that this decision once again proves that the US administration is complicit in the aggression against the Palestinian people by providing all kinds of support for the crimes committed by the Israeli entity.

The big picture

The US House approved, on Tuesday, a GOP-led anti-Semitism resolution with 311 in favor and 14 against, raising Democratic concerns about its broad language possibly categorizing criticism of the Israeli government as anti-Semitic.

Ninety-two Democrats opted for a "present" vote, while 13 Democrats and one Republican opposed the resolution.

The vote came amid a Congressional deadlock on aid to "Israel" during its war on Gaza. While there's broad bipartisan backing for Israeli aid, it's entangled in partisan disputes, particularly regarding US Southern border policies, creating uncertainty about its passage.

Division over approaches to anti-semitism resolution

Before the vote, Democratic Representatives Jerry Nadler and Daniel Goldman from New York, along with Jamie Raskin from Maryland, encouraged their peers to cast a "present" vote on the GOP resolution, characterizing it as a partisan effort to gain political advantage and emphasizing the necessity for a bipartisan approach.

On Monday, Nadler, Goldman, and Raskin introduced an alternative resolution condemning antisemitism. Their proposal urges executive branch agencies and Congress to adopt the Biden administration's "national strategy for combating antisemitism."

During his remarks on the House floor, Nadler highlighted a specific aspect of the GOP resolution's language, which asserts that "anti-Zionism is antisemitism."

“That is either intellectually disingenuous or just factually wrong,” he said.
