Michigan Rep. Tim Walberg, a Republican, does not believe that innocent civilians in Gaza and Ukraine deserve any more aid. Instead, Walberg would rather the money go towards bombing Russia and Gaza with nuclear weapons.
Walberg says that dropping atomic bombs on Russia and Gaza would result in “quick” victories for he and others who desire such outcomes against the two regions.
These dastardly remarks were made by Walberg at a recent meeting with members of the public in Dundee, Mich. You can hear Walberg speak them to a small group of people in the following video:
Walberg made these statements on March 25 while criticizing President Biden for suggesting any kind of aid for Gaza. To help those innocents would be to defy Israel, Walberg maintained, calling Israel Washington’s “greatest ally, arguably, anywhere in the world.”
“We shouldn’t be spending a dime on humanitarian aid,” Walberg scoffed. “It should be like Nagasaki and Hiroshima. Get it over quick.”
“The same should be in Ukraine,” Walberg continued. “Defeat Putin quick. Instead of 80 percent in Ukraine being used for humanitarian purposes, it should be 80 to 100 percent to wipe out Russian forces.”
(Related: Russia has condemned the Israeli genocide in Gaza, stating that “innocent people are being killed indiscriminately.”)
Walberg and others like him have become so callous and heartless when it comes to human life – which is ironic considering their “pro-life” stance – that it is difficult to even listen to them speak these kinds of things.
Are these people really so seared in their consciences that the only thing that matters is a Zionist victory for Israel, a nation that essentially forced itself back into existence through genocide and ethnic cleansing?
After Walberg’s statements went viral, he tried to backtrack on them, accusing people of misreporting and misrepresenting what he was actually saying, which was supposedly “metaphorical.”
“In a shortened clip, I used a metaphor to convey the need for both Israel and Ukraine to win their wars as swiftly as possible without putting American troops in harm’s way,” Walberg wrote in a carefully concocted statement posted to X.
“The use of this metaphor, along with the removal of context, distorted my message, but I fully stand by these beliefs and stand by our allies,” he added, noting that the sooner his side of the war is victorious, the “fewer innocent lives will be caught in the crossfire.”
In the comments, someone wrote that the U.S. at large, which is run by Walberg and his ilk, really needs “a healthy reminder that they do not live in a distant galaxy.”
“Perceived insularity feeds the illusion of impunity,” this person wrote, adding that the “U.S. regime thinks it is immune and protected.”
“As part of the reminder, let them feel and learn that one of the dangers comes from the ocean. The very ocean that was to protect them will now do that literally, with entire states becoming the ocean bed.”
Another wrote that to call for another Nagasaki and Hiroshima is something “no sound mind would ever propose as a resolution” to these current conflicts.
“Honest metaphors or not, peace through strength, never through war,” this person said. “A key question here is how could such a lowly character (Walberg) be voted in as a representative of the people.”
“This is the general caliber of U.S. politicians, although most aren’t stupid enough to say it out loud,” wrote another. “The U.S. government reflects the stupidity of Americans in general. After all, who elects these morons but other morons.”
