"Sen. John Kennedy (R-LA) badgered a Muslim witness during a meeting of the Senate Judiciary Committee on Tuesday and repeatedly asked her if she supports Hamas.
Maya Berry is the executive director of the Arab American Institute and testified about hate crimes in the U.S. In the hearing, Kennedy initiated a line of questioning in which he repeatedly suggested she supports Hamas. The senator appeared irked at Berry’s past criticism of the U.S. for pulling funding from the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine, or UNRWA. Israel accused a handful of workers in the agency of being involved in the Oct. 7 terrorist attacks in Israel. An extensive U.N. investigation found that nine of its more than 30,000 employees may have been involved in the attacks. It is the only intergovernmental organization that provides funding to Gaza."
