众议员托马斯·马西（共和党-肯塔基州）周一抨击前众议员迈克·罗杰斯（共和党-密歇根州），后者正在竞选密歇根州联邦参议员，指责其声称更多年轻人“反犹”。罗杰斯周日在哥伦比亚广播公司新闻节目《60分钟》中表示，“下一代孩子认为反犹很酷”。“我们在干什么？这听起来像1933年。这听起来不像今天，这不是我穿军装誓死捍卫的美国，也不是我想生活的美国。所以，我们将不得不进行对话，其中一些会非常艰难。”他补充道。
Rep. Thomas Massie (R-Ky.) on Monday went after former Rep. Mike Rogers (R-Mich.), who is running for Senate in Michigan, over his claims that more young people are “against the Jews.”In an appearance on CBS News’s “60 Minutes” broadcast Sunday, Rogers said that “the next generation of kids thinks it's really cool to be against the Jews.”“What are we doing? This sounds like 1933. It doesn't sound like today, and that's not the America I wore the uniform to defend, and that's not the America I want to live in. So, we're going to have to have conversations, and some of them are going to be really hard,” he added.
马西周一在社交平台X上发帖回击罗杰斯的言论。“这是迈克·罗杰斯的虚假且危险的言论：‘下一代孩子认为反犹很酷，’”马西在帖子中说。“不，迈克，下一代、我的这一代以及中间的各代人反对的是为中东战争提供资金。”“当迈克和其他人暗示反对内塔尼亚胡的战争等同于反犹太主义时，他们对犹太人造成了巨大的损害，”他补充道。
Massie shot back at Rogers over his comments in a post on the social platform X Monday. “This is false and dangerous rhetoric from Mike Rogers: ‘The next generation of kids thinks it’s really cool to be against the Jews,’” Massie said in his post. “No Mike, the next generation and my generation and the generations in between are against funding wars in the Middle East.”“Mike and others do a great disservice to Jewish people when they imply that opposition to Netanyahu’s wars is equivalent to antisemitism,” he added.
马西在国会主导推动切断美国对以色列援助，随着以色列在加沙的战争，这一议题势头增强。越来越多的民主党人将以色列在该战争中的行动定性为“种族灭绝”——战争中已有数万巴勒斯坦人丧生——其中包括罗杰斯的民主党对手阿卜杜勒·埃尔-赛义德。众议员海利·史蒂文斯（民主党-密歇根州）在初选中败给埃尔-赛义德，她周六因民主党在以色列问题上的立场而宣布支持罗杰斯。
Massie has led a push in Congress to cut off U.S. aid to Israel, an issue that has gained steam amid Israel’s war in Gaza. A growing cohort of Democrats have labeled Israel’s actions in that war, in which tens of thousands of Palestinians have been killed, as “genocide” — including Rogers's Democratic opponent, Abdul El-Sayed. Rep. Haley Stevens (D-Mich.), who lost to El-Sayed in the primary, cited the Democrats' positions on Israel in her decision to endorse Rogers over the weekend.
今年早些时候，众院民主党人在一项停止美国对以色列援助的修正案上几乎平分秋色，显示该党在该关系上的立场已发生多大转变。马西主导了该修正案，最终以104票赞成、314票反对未获通过，马西是唯一投赞成票的共和党人。
Earlier this year, House Democrats split almost evenly on an amendment to stop U.S. aid to Israel, signaling how far the party has shifted on the relationship. Massie spearheaded that amendment, which failed in a 104-314 vote, with Massie as the lone Republican yes vote.
内塔尼亚胡目前正为其政治生存而战，此前以色列于上个月举行了大选。虽然内塔尼亚胡领导的联盟获得的选票最多，但他未能获得绝对多数，这意味着他的主要对手加迪·艾森科特可能拥有组建政府的第一机会。《国会山报》已联系罗杰斯的竞选团队置评。
Netanyahu is currently locked in a fight for his political survival after Israeli elections last month. While Netanyahu's coalition received the most votes, he came up short of a clear majority, meaning his leading opponent, Gadi Eisenkot, may have the first chance to form a government. The Hill has reached out to Rogers’s campaign for comment.
