Adam Hamawy is a Democrat who was just elected to Congress in New Jersey. During an exchange on CNN this week, he refused to call Iran an adversary of the United States, basically claiming that we are the bad guys too.
Congratulations, New Jersey voters. You must be so proud.
The New York Post reports:
New Jersey Rep.-elect Adam Hamawy repeatedly refused to describe Iran as an “adversary,” faulting the Trump administration for pushing the Islamic Republic into war.
Hamawy (D-NJ), a former combat surgeon who faced scrutiny over his past interactions with radical Islamic figures decades ago, called for the conflict in Iran to end.
“We push[ed] them into a fight. And so I think we both have to step back and say, ‘Is this helping either one of us?’” Hamawy replied to CNN when asked if Tehran is an adversary.
Pressed again, he replied, “We’re making adversaries when we should be making friends.”
CNN anchor Pamela Brown brought up how Iranians have been chanting “Death to America” and killing Americans for decades. But Hamawy was unmoved by those facts.
“We’ve been saying death to Iran for decades as well,” he shot back. “And so what we need to do is use diplomacy.”
Watch below:
Insane exchange. Newly elected Democrat Adam Hamawy refuses to call Iran an adversary.
BROWN: Do you see Iran as the adversary?
HAMAWY: “We pushed them into a fight”
BROWN: But are they the adversary?

This man has ties to al-Qaeda.
FOX News reported:
Dem newcomer heads to Washington despite past ties to al Qaeda-linked group
Democratic congressman-elect Adam Hamawy is headed to Capitol Hill after cruising through the New Jersey election amid renewed scrutiny of his past ties to a charity later designated by the U.S. as a terrorist financier.
Hamawy, a plastic surgeon and former U.S. Army medical officer, secured approximately 70% of the vote in New Jersey’s 12th Congressional District, despite facing questions on the campaign trail about his reported previous volunteer work with the Benevolence International Foundation (BIF), a Chicago-based charity that federal authorities later identified as providing financial and logistical support to al Qaeda.
And it gets worse.
Adam Hamawy now represents the district where Todd Beamer lived. Who is Todd Beamer? He was the man who organized the passenger revolt of Flight 93 on 9/11, famously saying the words: Let’s roll.
Townhall reported back in June:
The most impactful and moving item displayed in the museum was the watch worn by Flight 93 hero Todd Beamer. Beamer is known as the guy who organized a rebellion against the hijackers on his plane, telling his fellow passengers “Let’s roll.” Flight 93 was aware of what had happened in New York and D.C. and wanted to stop the hijackers from causing further damage. They tried to storm the cockpit and retake control of the plane, and the hijackers responded by driving it into a field in Pennsylvania.
Todd Beamer’s wristwatch was recovered from the crash site, forever frozen in time. This writer will never forget that.
Now, if terrorist supporter Adam Hamawy wins his seat in New Jersey, he will represent the district where Todd Beamer lived when Islamic terrorists ended his life. Beamer was 32 years old and left behind a wife and children.
Americans who voted for this man should be ashamed.
