Nikki Haley, the former U.S. ambassador to the United Nations, made headlines during her recent visit to Israel when she inscribed an artillery shell with the words “Finish them!” alongside a message of solidarity with Israel.
Accompanied by Israeli politician Danny Danon, Haley toured Kibbutz Nir Oz, which a Hamas attack had targeted.
Danon shared images of Haley’s inscription on social media, sparking discussion. This isn’t the first time Haley has used the phrase “finish them,” seemingly directed at Hamas.
Despite media attention, Haley’s representatives declined to comment.
Haley’s visit coincided with the ongoing conflict in Gaza, with the Israeli Defense Forces striking a tent camp in Rafah, resulting in numerous casualties.
The situation has escalated since the October attacks by Hamas, leading to significant loss of life, particularly among civilians.
Haley’s return to prominence follows her withdrawal from the presidential race and recent remarks reaffirming support for Donald Trump.
While once serving as U.S. Ambassador to the U.N., her relationship with Trump has become strained, but she continues to advocate for strong U.S. support for Israel in its conflict with Hamas.
