Congress member Kathy Manning (D-NC) wrote of her fear of Gazan rockets when she went on an Israeli tour to the town of Sderot (a town that numerous American politicians are taken to). But it’s clear that Manning knows little about the history and current context of Gaza and Sderot, and is missing essential facts.
For citations for the statements in the video, see the article that contains its text: “Congresswoman Manning: let’s put your Sderot experience in context,” by Kathryn Shihadah, who reads her message to Manning in the video. (The shortlink for the article is https://iakn.us/Manning.)
