Ilhan Omar: Biden and Media Are Talking About Campus Protests Instead of the Mass Grave Found in Gaza

Omar: “I have the proud honor of representing this incredible university in Congress. And I have to tell you, I am incredibly moved by your courage and bravery as a student body, in putting your bodies on the line to stand in solidarity to end the genocide that is taking place in Gaza at this moment.
(Cheering and Applause)
I have to tell you, it’s been incredibly painful for the last five days to see the discovery — while there is a discovery of a mass grave of more than 200 Palestinians in Khan Younis, that our media, our elected politicians, our president, every single leader, is spending their time and energy in talking about the protests as if you all are here to give voice to the genocide that is taking place in Gaza.
(Cheering and Applause)
What started out five days ago with only 70 students organizing themselves at Columbia University has now led to a nationwide university movement.”
