Former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi has once again provoked outrage on the right after remarks she made that seemed to call on Israel to restrain itself after hundreds of its citizens were brutally murdered by Iran-backed Hamas.

“Our priority right now is to get the hostages freed,” Pelosi told MSNBC’s Chris Hayes, going on to praise “what Secretary [of State Antony] Blinken said today at the United Nations, calling for a humanitarian pause in the military action so that we can try to find a more peaceful path, especially right away to get more hostages free, not just American, although that’s our responsibility, but all the hostages freed.”

She then explained further.

“I think the humanitarian pause is the way to go. Look, what Hamas did was barbaric in Israel. It was barbaric, it was outside the circle of civilized human behavior, and if it happened to your family, you would want justice,” the California Democrat added.

“I’m not talking about revenge, I want— I’m saying justice. So there has to be some other place we go instead of just saying let’s have a ceasefire. We had a ceasefire in May that was broken by Hamas on October 7th, so let’s remember that, but there may be a few votes in our caucus who may not support the package, but I think, by and large, it will be overwhelmingly supported,” she said, referencing President Joe Biden’s call for more funding for Israel.

“We just have to get a Speaker on the Republican side. They won, they got the confidence of the American people, now they should show they’re worthy of that confidence by at least electing a leader, a Speaker, so that we can conduct the business of Congress, and that includes coming forth with this package and then keeping the government open after that,” she said.

WATCH:

Nancy Pelosi whines that Congress can’t send any money to Ukraine and Israel until Republicans elect a Speaker 😌

So keep in mind that every day that passes without a Speaker is another day that corrupt politicians can’t launder our taxpayer money overseas. pic.twitter.com/IXAEmAgyqh

Her remarks drew widespread condemnation on social media.

Why do I feel every time she speaks about American people, I hear Satan speaking about saving souls.
