More than a dozen far-left House Democrats called for an end Monday to the nine-day-old war in Israel with a resolution that referred to the Oct. 7 Hamas terror attack as “armed violence” and made no mention of American hostages held in the Gaza Strip.

The “Ceasefire Now Resolution,” — introduced by Reps. Cori Bush of Missouri, Rashida Tlaib of Michigan, Andre Carson of Indiana, Summer Lee of Pennsylvania and Delia Ramirez of Illinois — demands that the Biden administration “immediately call for and facilitate deescalation [sic] and a cease-fire to urgently end the current violence” and “promptly send and facilitate the entry of humanitarian assistance into Gaza.” …

The bill’s backers also include Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, Jamaal Bowman, and Nydia Velazquez of New York; Ayanna Pressley of Massachusetts; Bonnie Watson Coleman of New Jersey; Chuy Garcia and Jonathan Jackson of Illinois; and Ilhan Omar of Minnesota.

[Call them the Usual Suspects of jihadi joy. They are an utter disgrace, and perhaps one good reason to keep the House shut down. When the House GOP gets its act together — *if* they do — one of the first acts in the House should be to force a roll-call vote on this shameful resolution. And maybe the second act should be a censure against these Hamas apologists. — Ed]
