U.S. Representative Ritchie Torres (NY-15), known for his great love for the Jews & Israel, responds to a crowd who pressed on him for his support of Israel and the Iron Dome defense system:
“Genocide has always led to a decrease in population; the Palestinian population in Israel went from 200,000 in 1948 to over 2 Million in Israel, and above 14 million in surrounding areas”. “I will not apologize for supporting technology that protects civilians from rocket fire.”
