Progressive Democrats in Congress erupted in outrage Thursday night after Israel launched limited defensive strikes on Iranian targets—prompted by ongoing threats and hostile action from Tehran.

Leading the charge, members of the radical-left “Squad” took to social media to denounce Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, labeling him a “war criminal” and accusing him of reckless warmongering—all while ignoring Iran’s destabilizing role in the region.

“Israel has once again bombed Iran, a dangerous & reckless escalation. The war criminal Netanyahu wants to ignite an endless regional war & drag the US into it,” Rep. Summer Lee, D-Pa., posted on X—offering no condemnation of Iran’s own threats or proxies.
