US Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez has recently been in the spotlight for not labeling the situation in the Gaza Strip as 'genocide.'

During a Meet the Press interview on NBC, she hesitated to use the term for Israel's war on Gaza, although she defended the use of the term by others in her party, including Rashida Tlaib, who have accused the U.S. government of complicity.

AOC's response to these issues highlights the divide within the Democratic Party over how to address Israel's brutal aggression on the coastal enclave and the US's involvement.

The discussion comes at a critical time, as President Joe Biden seeks re-election and the party grapples with its stance on international conflicts and human rights issues.
