Rep. Debbie Dingell faced backlash after condemning Hamas for its rape of Israeli women, with Palestinian men doxxing her and demanding retractions.
She expressed shock at the opposition and vowed to double down on her stance against rape as a tool of war.
Dingell also mentioned reaching out to Rep. Pramila Jayapal regarding her refusal to condemn Hamas without also addressing Israel. (Trending: Trump Announces Major Promise For 2024)
“The very first week of this [Hamas] attack, I condemned the raping of women and said that no one could condone it, and Palestinian men went after me — called me a liar, demanded I retracted it. I got doxxed over the subject,” Dingell said.
“I have spent the last seven weeks researching the raping of women that has occurred in the Mideast. It is outrageous. I condemn it.”
“All it did was make me angrier,” she said. “This is going to be an issue I am seriously going to take on.”
“Rape is a tool of war. It is violence that should be exercised against no woman — any woman: a Jewish woman, an Arab woman, a white woman, a black woman, and I unequivocally stand against it,” Dingell added.
“I’m going to talk to Pramila. I have a call into her,” Dingell said.
“I’m going to just speak for myself on this subject, and I’m raw on this subject because of the hate that I have had directed at me for speaking the truth.”
“I will speak the truth, and I don’t care who it is. But rape is an act of violence and it becomes too often a tool in any act of war, and as women everywhere, we must stand up for women everywhere.”
Despite joining colleagues in calling for a ceasefire, Dingell emphasized the need to stand up for women everywhere and condemned violence from both sides.
