Michigan Republican Representative Tim Walberg has sparked controversy with his comments on the situation in Gaza, suggesting that the United States should not spend any money on humanitarian aid for the region. Instead, he proposed that the solution should be akin to the atomic bombings of Nagasaki and Hiroshima during World War II, advocating for a quick end to the conflict with the phrase "Get it over quick." These remarks have been widely criticized, with Rep. Dan Kildee describing them as "horrific & shocking" and an "indefensible position." The comments suggest a drastic shift from humanitarian efforts to military action, raising concerns about the implications for international relations and peace efforts.
