House Unanimously Passes Bill Barring Hamas October 7 Attack Participants from Entering United States

October 7, 2023, should have been a moment of moral clarity for everyone. Hamas terrorists stormed into Israel and butchered over 1,200 innocent civilians—women, children, elderly Holocaust survivors. They filmed their atrocities, celebrated them, posted them online for the world to see. This wasn’t warfare; it was gleeful slaughter. (Yes, gleeful—they literally livestreamed it like some sick victory parade.) Yet within days, we watched American college students tearing down posters of kidnapped Israeli children. We saw professors justifying the “resistance.” We witnessed major cities’ streets clogged with demonstrations supporting not the victims, but the perpetrators.

For two agonizing years, through hostage videos and failed negotiations, the cultural elite seemed determined to muddy waters that should have been crystal clear. Even after President Trump brokered his historic 20-point peace plan and secured the return of surviving hostages, the protests continued. The Palestinian flag became as common at progressive rallies as rainbow flags and climate signs. Makes you wonder—when did supporting actual terrorists become progressive? You’d think, listening to the loudest voices, that America had chosen a side—the wrong one.

Then something remarkable happened in Congress this week. The House of Representatives voted on the “No Immigration Benefits for Hamas Terrorists Act of 2025,” a bill that would bar anyone who participated in, planned, financed, or facilitated the October 7 attacks from entering the United States. The vote wasn’t close. It wasn’t partisan. It was unanimous. Every single member of the House—Democrat and Republican alike—voted to keep Hamas terrorists out of America.

No question, Hamas committed war crimes in their Oct 7 attack, and they deserve all the international sanctions they've gotten and more.

Here's the thing that muddies the waters though. Israel's response, involving killing tens of thousands of innocent Palestinian children, also included war crimes.

We need to be consistent, and sanction war criminals on both sides.

We know, sunstroke, you've got some silly cartoons and off topic claims to try and pretend I said something else. I'm saying both sides committed war crimes, sunstroke, and you are too much of a coward to admit both sides did.
@sunsporter1649 What, in your opinion, did those Palestinian children sow??

@ElwoodBlues The same thing that those Israeli children did on Oct 7
@sunsporter1649 Killing the Israeli children on Oct 7 was a war crime, as we agree.

Therefore, killing Palestinian children is also a war crime. Why is it so hard for you to admit this simple fact???
