A congressman of the Republican Party of the United States named Tim Walberg has called to create a situation like Hiroshima and Nagasaki in the Second World War by dropping nuclear bombs on the occupied Gaza and Russia.
He recently made such a call at a campaign meeting in his constituency.
UK-based media reported this news. According to reports, Representative Tim Walberg of Michigan called on the United States, including Israel and Ukraine’s allies, saying that the situation in Gaza should be like Nagasaki and Hiroshima. End this problem quickly. The same should be the case with Russia.
At that time, Walberg was strongly opposed to sending relief aid to Gaza. He said, ‘We should not spend another penny on relief aid in Gaza. This money should be spent on Israel instead. Because, anywhere in the world, on any issue, Israel is the biggest ally of the United States.
It should be noted that this Republican congressman named Tim Walberg was a priest before entering politics. A video of his speech during a public meeting has already spread on social media.
Walberg’s statement was strongly condemned by the progressive political circles. As a former Christian pastor, how can he make such a comment is being strongly criticized all over the United States. The Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) called the congressman’s statement a “blatant call for genocide” in a statement. “All Americans, who value human life and international law, should condemn Walberg’s comments,” said Dawud Waleed, the organization’s executive director, in a statement.
Meanwhile, Tim Wahlberg is trying to withdraw from his statement in the face of widespread criticism. In a statement on Sunday (March 31), the US Congressman said his comments were misrepresented by the media. He claimed that he did not advocate the use of nuclear weapons. In his brief speech, he simply used a metaphor to convey the need for Israel and Ukraine to win the war as quickly as possible.
Wahlberg then said, “The sooner Israel and Ukraine defeat Hamas and Russia, the more innocent lives will be saved.”
