New York Governor apologizes after justifying Israel's destruction of Gaza. New York Governor Kathy Hochul apologized on Friday for statements she made at a Jewish charity event in New York City.

"If Canada attacks Buffalo one day, I'm sorry, my friends, there will be no Canada the next," she said. She said in a statement, "While I have been clear in my support of Israel's right to self-defense, I have repeatedly said and continue to believe that Palestinian civilian casualties should be avoided"
