Republicans employ on-camera activist traps to warn Hamas
Republican Lawmakers Stand Firm in Support of Israel
Republican lawmakers on Capitol Hill have recently found themselves in confrontations with camera-wielding activists. However, instead of being deterred, these encounters have provided an opportunity for these lawmakers to express their unwavering support for Israel and condemn Hamas.
One such encounter involved Senator Marco Rubio (R-FL) and the far-left group Code Pink. When asked if he would call for a ceasefire in Gaza, Rubio responded emphatically, stating, “I want them to destroy every element of Hamas they can get their hands on.” He further described Hamas as ”vicious animals” who have committed horrifying crimes.

Rubio also criticized Hamas for using civilians as shields and held them “100%” responsible for the deaths of innocent people caught in the crossfire.
Another video captured Representative Jim Banks (R-IN) addressing a group of protesters speaking out about Gaza. Banks dismissed them, stating, ”You guys are crazy. You should go home.”

Representative Chuck Fleischmann (R-TN) also faced a group of people pressing him on Gaza. He firmly declared, “Israel is our ally, will always be our ally, and they are not guilty of genocide.” Fleischmann further expressed his unwavering support for Israel and condemned Palestinian terrorism.

Representative Brian Mast (R-FL), a veteran who lost both his legs while serving in Afghanistan, also addressed Code Pink activists. In a video accompanied by classical music, Mast calmly expressed his refusal to support a ceasefire and his commitment to ensuring taxpayer dollars do not go to organizations linked to Hamas.
Hey @CodePink, do you know where we stand with terrorists? We stand on their throats. pic.twitter.com/4WBQ6xi70K

Mast confidently asserted, “We stand on their throats” when asked about their stance on terrorists.
