Solo: Haley sending despicable messages

Posted

During a recent visit to Israel, former presidential candidate Nikki Haley scrawled despicable messages on artillery shells.

On one artillery shell, she wrote, “Finish Them!” This message suggests murdering all Palestinians.

On another artillery shell, she wrote, “Finish them. America loves Israel always.” This message suggests murdering all Palestinians and that the U.S. will still support Israel.

This is especially concerning when Israel has been repeatedly accused of genocide, and the International Criminal Court is seeking to arrest Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Israeli minister of defense Yoav Gallant.

Haley suggests that Hamas drew first blood Oct. 7, 2023. Prior to this, Israel was illegally blockading Gaza and occupying the West Bank, killing and assaulting Palestinians and oppressing Palestinians with land theft, home demolition, torture, sexual assaults, wrongful incarceration, water deprivation, food deprivation, electricity deprivation, mobility and travel impairment, etc. See the references at sites.google.com/view/israel-palestine-references for further information.

Haley’s messages are deplorable and disturbing. She doesn’t have the judgment or morality to be a responsible politician.
