On Tuesday's broadcast of MSNBC's "Morning Joe," House Foreign Affairs Committee Ranking Member Rep. Gregory Meeks (D-NY) stated that the evil of the Hamas attack on October 7 and their continuing attacks on Israel have been forgotten and "people are not talking about Hamas enough and the tragedies that they have done and continue to do in continuing to shoot rockets." He also noted that Israel has shown a willingness to make peace with people who recognize their right to exist, like they did with Egypt.
