Hawkish Haley writes on bomb: “Finish Them! America <3 Israel Always"

The situation in Gaza

There is no end in sight to Nikki Haley's support for Israel.

Neoconservative Republican and former presidential candidate Nikki Haley has emerged as one of the most hawkish and pro-Israel American politicians. Yesterday, she visited an IDF army base in northern Israel and took the opportunity to write a ‘love note’ on one of the artillery shells.

“Finish them! US <3 Israel Always”, she wrote.

The ‘love note’ comes as much of the world condemns Israel’s widespread bombing of Palestinian civilians – most recently, at least 45 Palestinians were killed in a new Israeli airstrike on a refugee camp in the Rafah area.

So far, at least 35,000 Palestinians have been killed and tens of thousands more injured in the Israeli invasion and bombardment, according to Palestinian officials and human rights groups.

Despite alarms and warnings that Israel is committing war crimes and genocide, and may even meet the legal definition of genocide, many Republican representatives continue to give their full support to the Israeli war.

“They are all murderers”

Haley, who likes to repeat the dominant Republican narrative, also claims that Iran, Russia and China were behind Hamas’ bloody attacks on Israel on October 7.

According to the Republican, the attack was orchestrated by Iran, aided by Russian intelligence and fueled by money from China.

– China’s been funding Iran the entire time. Russia’s intelligence helped them know where everything was. Iran helped get them trained. So this isn’t Hamas. These are all murderers and accomplices, she continued.

However, the politician did not bother to present any evidence for her allegations, as noted even by the Israeli media, and others point out that the statement is unusually weak and misguided, even for an American politician.
