Andrew Yang apologizes for pro-Israel tweet after criticism from the left

My God, I loathe the Left.
NY Post

Democratic mayoral contender Andrew Yang backtracked on his support for Israel amid the latest battle in its ongoing conflict with Palestinian militants — after critics on the left, including Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) blasted his remarks.
Yang posted an apology on Twitter Wednesday following a discussion with longtime volunteers who were upset by an earlier post that said he stood with “the people of Israel who are coming under bombardment attacks, and condemn the Hamas terrorists.”
His first tweet, published Monday night, continued, “The people of NYC will always stand with our brothers and sisters in Israel who face down terrorism and persevere.”
On Wednesday, he backtracked, saying his volunteers “felt that my tweet was overly simplistic in my treatment of a conflict that has a long and complex history full of tragedies. And they felt it failed to acknowledge the pain and suffering on both sides.

A real man of convictions there..he should poll people before forming his “opinions” and “values”.

AOC knows legitimately 0 about issues, anything she says can be ignored by everyone

So, NOW "there are good people on BOTH sides" is appropriate?

Does the Left realize they stand for nothing? Literally. They change their opinions at the behest of any mob at any time.
It's quite comical that they attempt to feel so morally superior, but stand for nothing but the sway of public opinion. Pathetic.

zero moral convictions. yang thought he was sending out a mob-approved tweet but he thought wrong.
better run these tweets through a few twitter-approved blue checkmarks before posting them yang.
leftists literally have a giant gaping vagina where their soul should be.

Dems biggest supporters are rich Jews and Jews vote dem at 85% block.
If you don’t like Israel you can do something about it you know.

He’s not Mayor material.
Gotta stand by your convictions and not let others add out-of-context meaning to your words, then hold you accountable as if you spoke them.

Well, that should settle it for those who are undecided about Yang. He has no principles.
