‘And I believe that the way you fight for good is to call out evil’
The morning after an attack on a group of people in Colorado demonstrating in support of freeing the hostages held in Gaza, Democrat Reps. Ilhan Omar of Minnesota and Rashida Tlaib of Michigan, both of them Muslims, had yet to issue statements condemning the violence.
Rep. Randy Fine, R-Fla., who is Jewish, was critical of the silence from the two Muslim congresswomen following the attack Sunday that left eight people injured in Boulder, Colorado.
“They’re Muslim terrorists,” he said when asked what he made of their lack of a public statement as of Monday morning.
“I put it to people this way,” Fine continued, “the people who are sitting, running Hamas in Qatar, they’re not blowing anything up, but they support terrorism. If you support Muslim terrorism, you’re a Muslim terrorist, and I believe that they both do. You can see it in the silence. I think it is a disgrace that they are Americans, let alone in Congress. And I believe that the way you fight for good is to call out evil.”
Tlaib did respond to the attack on Monday afternoon after The Daily Signal’s conversation with Fine.
