AOC Stands by Accusation of Genocide Against Israel

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez defended her accusation of Israel committing genocide in Gaza, citing the humanitarian crisis and forced famine affecting 1.1 million Gazans as evidence of intent. She called for the Biden administration to halt military aid to Israel and criticized the Israeli government's actions, while emphasizing the distinction between people and their governments. Ocasio-Cortez's comments come amid growing concern about civilian casualties and reports of starvation and malnutrition in Gaza, with the U.S. delivering humanitarian aid and pledging to do more to help civilians caught in the violence.
