Democratic Florida Rep. Jared Moskowitz called out members of his own party Tuesday for blindly spreading Hamas propaganda and engaging in antisemitic behaviors.

Far-left Democratic Reps. Rashida Tlaib of Michigan and Ilhan Omar of Minnesota repeated Hamas’ claim that an Israeli airstrike bombed a hospital and killed 500 people in Gaza City. Israeli leaders and U.S. intelligence agencies have provided evidence and concluded that the Palestinian Islamic Jihad misfired a missile and hit the hospital’s parking lot.

Tlaib has refused to retract her claims and said she “cannot uncritically accept” that Israel played no part in the bombing.

Moskowitz, a Jewish member of Congress, criticized his colleagues for blindly parroting Hamas propaganda.

You are telling us that Tlaib is repeating a claim by Hamas. I will wager this is speculation on the part of your dubious source. After all, Tlaib certainly could be drawing on other sources than Hamas in concluding that Israel is responsible.

Where is the evidence that Tlaib is taking Hamas's word for it and not basing her view on another source?

Let's examine the credibility of the source for this story - "The Daily Caller". From wikipedia:

Fact-checkers have frequently debunked Daily Caller stories. According to the 2018 book, Network Propaganda: Manipulation, Disinformation, and Radicalization in American Politics, written by Harvard University scholars Yochai Benkler, Robert Faris and Hal Roberts, The Daily Caller fails to follow journalistic norms in its reporting.  According to the Encyclopædia Britannica, The Daily Caller "descended into extremism and sensationalism, publishing unsupported and frequently vulgar attacks on Democratic leaders, false criticisms of liberal causes, and popular conspiracy theories. The site also became known for its promotion of racist and sexist stereotypes".
