A Republican congressman compares Palestinian civilians to Nazis on the House floor

(This is the psycho who wore his IDF uniform to congress. He’s not into humanitarian aid either - of course. )

“ Speaking on the House floor on Wednesday, a Republican congressman compared Palestinian civilians to Nazis.”

“Rep. Brian Mast, a representative from

Florida who's been in Congress since 2017, made the comparison in the middle of a short speech he gave as Congress debated whether or not to impose sanctions on Hamas. “

get exterminated, then yeah, that's certainly Nazi-like. Hamas therefore is Nazi-like because that is their declared position regarding Israel. Possibly many Palestinian civilians also believe this. If Israelis/Jews want Palestinians as a whole to be exterminated, that's also Nazi-like. But it's inflammatory and unnecessary language, he's just being an attention-whore shithead.
