(Getty Images)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/blockquote>\n<div>\n<p>New York congressman Jamaal Bowman recently \u200csent a &#8220;recap&#8221; newsletter to his constituents, but \u200csurprisingly, he\u2062 failed to mention \u200dthe terrorist attack by Hamas against \u200bIsrael. \u2063Instead, the Democrat \u2062focused on his efforts to combat climate change and revolutionize public education.<\/p>\n<p>In this newsletter, which was \u2062emailed\u200b to his constituents in New\u2062 York&#8217;s 16th Congressional District, Bowman \u200bhighlighted his participation in \u200dthe\u2062 &#8220;March to End Fossil Fuels,&#8221; emphasizing \u2063the urgent \u2064need to address\u200b the climate\u2062 crisis. He also promoted his \u200b&#8221;Green \u200dNew Deal for Public Schools&#8221; bill, aiming to \u2063bring about\u2064 a transformative change in public education. However, Bowman conveniently\u200d omitted any mention of Israel or the recent attack \u2064by Hamas, despite extending well wishes to the district&#8217;s Jewish community for a happy and healthy new year.<\/p>\n<p>The \u2064newsletter states, &#8220;Let&#8217;s all join\u200d in reflection on how we can \u200bbuild\u200d a more peaceful and equitable world.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>Bowman&#8217;s\u200d decision to exclude Israel\u2062 from \u200chis newsletter has\u2062 drawn \u2064criticism, particularly from the substantial Jewish population in his district. Earlier this year, Bowman opposed a House resolution rejecting the \u2062characterization \u200cof Israel as a racist state and\u200c boycotted Israeli \u200cpresident\u2062 Isaac\u200c Herzog&#8217;s congressional address. Additionally, he\u200c was one of the thirteen congressional Democrats who did not co-sponsor a bipartisan resolution to\u200b stand\u2064 with Israel following the acts of terrorism committed by Hamas.<\/p>\n<p>Sharon Shire, a registered Democrat residing in Bowman&#8217;s district, expressed her disappointment, stating, &#8220;The newsletter is \u2063shockingly silent about the \u200battack on Israel, the worst attack in Israel&#8217;s history and one of\u200b the most <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/jamaal-bowman-omits-israel-from-constituent-newsletter-touts-efforts-to-end-fossil-fuels-instead\/\" title=\"Jamaal Bowman prioritizes 'Ending Fossil Fuels' over Israel in constituent newsletter.\">gruesome barbaric unfathomable incidents<\/a>. And it&#8217;s very disappointing.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Bowman&#8217;s office, \u2064which did\u2063 not respond to a request for comment, typically shares a\u200c monthly\u200d &#8220;recap&#8221; newsletter on its website at the\u2062 end of each month. However, the September &#8220;recap&#8221; was sent to constituents via email on Wednesday, several days after Hamas launched its terrorist assault against Israel. The latest \u200brecap has not been posted on Bowman&#8217;s website.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>In his latest recap,\u2063 Bowman did mention other events that \u200btook place\u200c in October, such \u200das a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/elon-university-hosts-white-caucus-meeting-to-unpack-systemic-oppression\/\" title=\"Elon University Hosts \u2018White Caucus\u2019 Meeting To \u2018Unpack\u2019 \u2018Systemic Oppression\u2019\">virtual town hall<\/a> on \u2062school safety held on October 12, which he encouraged his constituents \u2062to\u2064 attend.<\/p>\n<p>Bowman is not \u2062the only Democrat facing criticism for failing to acknowledge Israel in post-attack statements.\u2062 Michigan Democratic governor \u2062Gretchen Whitmer also faced calls to resign after omitting any mention of the Jewish state \u2064in her statement on Hamas&#8217;s terror attack.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I have been in touch with\u200c communities impacted by \u2062what&#8217;s happening in the region,&#8221; Whitmer said. &#8220;It is\u200d abhorrent. \u2026 We need peace in this region.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p> <\/p>\n<h2> How does Congressman Bowman&#8217;s failure to acknowledge the terrorist attack by Hamas \u2063raise concerns about his priorities\u2063 and commitment to addressing important global issues?<\/h2>\n<p><span>  T us now celebrate the\u200c new year with \u200cthe Jewish community and wish them a sweet new year, \u2064full\u200b of \u2062blessings and joy.&#8221;\u2062 While this sentiment may seem positive on the surface, it raises questions about Bowman&#8217;s priorities and his commitment \u2064to addressing important global issues, including terrorism.<\/p>\n<p>The recent actions of \u2063Hamas, a\u2064 recognized terrorist organization, cannot be ignored \u200dor downplayed. In May \u200dof this year, Hamas launched \u2062a barrage of rockets \u200dfrom\u2062 the Gaza Strip towards Israeli cities, resulting in the loss\u200d of innocent lives and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/watch-palestinian-terrorists-launch-rockets-at-israel-end-up-hitting-gaza\/\" title=\"WATCH: Palestinian Terrorists Launch Rockets At Israel, End Up Hitting Gaza\">causing significant damage<\/a>. This unprovoked aggression\u2062 by Hamas demands\u200d condemnation and a strong response from leaders \u200daround the world.<\/p>\n<p>By failing to acknowledge the terrorist attack by Hamas, Bowman does \u200ca\u2063 disservice \u200bto \u200dhis constituents and to \u200cthe principles of truth and justice. As a member of Congress, it is his responsibility to \u2063keep his constituents informed about significant events and\u2064 to stand against terrorism in all its forms. Ignoring this \u2064crucial issue \u2064not \u200donly undermines his credibility \u200dbut\u200b also sends a message that terrorism can be overlooked or forgotten.<\/p>\n<p>Furthermore, \u200cBowman&#8217;s focus on climate change and public education, while undoubtedly \u200cimportant, should not come at \u2064the expense of other \u2063critical matters. The fight against terrorism is \u2064a \u200cglobal priority that demands attention and action from\u200d leaders at\u2064 every level. \u200bIt is disappointing to see a congressman prioritize his personal agenda over addressing a vital issue affecting \u2063the lives and \u2063security\u2064 of people \u2064around the world.<\/p>\n<p>As elected officials,\u2063 it\u2063 is\u2062 imperative for representatives like Bowman to demonstrate\u200c leadership, integrity,\u2062 and a commitment to the well-being of their constituents. In this case,\u200b Bowman&#8217;s failure to \u200daddress the Hamas \u200dattack reflects a lack of these qualities. By ignoring terrorism \u2063and its \u2062impact, he fails to provide the necessary support and reassurance to the\u200c Jewish community in \u200dhis district, who may\u200d rightfully feel \u200bconcerned about their safety and\u200d security.<\/p>\n<p>In conclusion, Congressman Jamaal Bowman&#8217;s recent newsletter neglecting to mention the terrorist attack by Hamas against Israel \u2063raises\u2062 serious concerns about \u200bhis \u200cpriorities and his commitment to\u2062 fighting terrorism. By failing to\u2063 address this\u2062 issue, \u200bhe\u2064 undermines\u200d the principles of truth,\u2062 justice, and keeping his constituents informed. It is crucial for elected officials to prioritize global issues like terrorism and demonstrate leadership in addressing \u2062them.\u200b In the interest of his constituents and the integrity\u200b of his\u200b role as a congressman, Bowman should acknowledge and condemn \u2064Hamas&#8217; act of terrorism.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In a recent newsletter, Congressman Jamaal Bowman wished the Jewish community a sweet new year but failed to acknowledge the Hamas terrorist attack on Israel.
