Rep. Jamaal Bowman (D-NY) reversed course after calling reports of Oct. 7 sexual assaults in Israel propaganda, Politico reports.
At first Bowman declined to talk about it: Im focused on my votes and other things. Im not talking.
Later, he reversed himself: The UN confirmed that Hamas committed rape and sexual violence, a reprehensible fact that I condemn entirely. I also voted yes on Resolution 966, which officially condemns the rape and sexual violence committed by Hamas. So let me be clear, and ensure my words are not twisted: I always stand against sexual violence in all forms and stand for peace for all.
