'The Interview': Chuck Schumer on Democrats, Antisemitism and His Shutdown Retreat

And Hamas made it much, and no one blames Hamas. I mean, the news reports every day for a while showed Palestinians being hurt and killed. And, you know, I see the pictures of a little Palestinian boy without a leg, or I saw on sticks in my head there was a little girl, like 11, 12, crying because her parents were both killed. I ache for that.

But on the news reports, they never mention that so much of the time Hamas used the Palestinian people as human shields. And so when these protesters come and accuse Israel of genocide, I say, what about Hamas? They don't even want to talk about Hamas. Wait, one final thing.

'The Interview': Chuck Schumer on Democrats, Antisemitism and His Shutdown Retreat

This is very important. Jewish people were subject, at least in my judgment, to the worst genocide ever. I put in the book, on the day they got Kiev, the Nazis asked 33,000 Jews to line up by a trench, strip naked, and they shot them all dead. Every day Auschwitz killed 20,000 people. My family was killed from a place called Chortkiv in western Ukraine. And this was vicious and horrible.

And it is vicious of the opponents to call it genocide. Criticize it? For sure. Say Israel went too far? For sure. And you know what it does? It increases anti-Semitism because they're making Israel and the Jewish people look like monsters, which they are not.

You know, my great-grandmother was the wife of a well-known scholar in Chortkiv. The Nazis rolled in in 1941 and said to the Jewish people of Chortkiv, gather in the town square. And then my great-grandmother, who had a house on the town square, they said your greater family should come to the porch. About 35 people from age 85 to three months came to the porch.

The Nazis in front of all the Jews in Chortkiv said, you're coming with us. She said, we're not moving. They machine gunned every one of them down. I was in China on the night of October 7th, and the Israeli ambassador came in and told me what happened in the kibbutz of Biari. And they took like a hundred from the elderly to the children on a stage and shot them all down.

So, yes, it's very emotional, and to almost all Jewish people, we all have relatives, and we know about this has happened. Again, genocide is a vicious, vicious word to use.

Please. The UN has been anti-Israel, anti-Semitically against Israel, double standard. Moynihan was my idol. He became famous when in 1976 they tried to pass a resolution, Zionism is racism. To say that the Jewish people should not have a state when every other people should have a state is anti-Semitism, the old double standard, ipso facto.

And the international organizations, I have no faith in them being fair. These same international organizations, when horrible things go in in Darfur or China or wherever, they look the other way.

Colombia did not do enough. I criticized them. And believe me, I believe in free speech. I believe in the right to protest. As you read in my book, I started my career protesting the Vietnam War. I say to some people, if I were your age, you know, the younger people protesting, I'd be protesting something or other. So I get that. And I love it. And it's about America. protest.
