Was it to appease the anti-Semites in the Squad?

Democrats in the House of Representatives blocked a vote Tuesday to support the protesters in Iran who are demonstrating against the regime.
Consideration and a vote on House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy’s resolution was blocked because Democrats advanced the previous question, by a vote of 226-191. The resolution would have condemned the Government of Iran for killing 1,500 Iranian citizens who were protesting their government, as well as condemned the Government of Iran for shooting down Ukraine International Airlines Flight 752, killing 176 people.
In addition, the resolution; “(3) condemns the Government of Iran for repeatedly lying to its people and to the world about its responsibility for the downing of Ukraine International Airlines Flight 752; (4) calls on the Government of Iran to— (A) refrain from the use of violence; and (B) protect the rights of freedom of expression and peaceful assembly; and (5) supports the protestors in Iran, their demands for accountability, and their desire for the Government of Iran to respect freedom and human rights.

They are still mourning over Soleimani being murdered by Trump.

Do we really need Congress to pass a bill for hopes and prayers for Iran?

Of course not. I do believe it shows how far the divide is between the "two" political parties.

Well most of them are on Iran's/Qatar's payroll so there's that.

No, we don't.
It is nice to see once again, however, that team blue is also team terrorist.

I don’t. It’s pretty clear to me the Democrats support terrorists and not the people of Iran.
