Democrats who are set to skip Netanyahu speech are outraged over ad attacking Susan Rice on human rights

NYT ad is reprehensible & wrong. @SusanRice has tirelessly fought for human rights & for the state of Israel. I thank her for her service.

Ad in NYT is vile and contemptible and has no place in legitimate discourse. Susan Rice is owed an apology.

We should stay focused on preventing a nuclear Iran and protecting human rights. The ad attacking @AmbassadorRice in the NYT helps neither.

Disgraceful ad in @NYTimes further politicizes Netanyahu's speech to Congress and disparages human rights leader @AmbassadorRice.

Ad taken out in today's @nytimes against @AmbassadorRice is disgusting, offensive & completely without merit.

The NYT ad targets @AmbassadorRice, a dedicated supporter of Israel, public servant and voice against genocide. Shame on them.

@AmbassadorRice deserves apology from @RabbiShmuleyfor deeply offensive ad. Wall-to-wall Jewish group condemnation entirely justified.

Disgusted by wacky ad taken out against @ambassadorrice -irresponsible to attack someone who has devoted career to defending human rights.

Ad in today's NYT slandering Susan Rice is wrong on the facts — she's a fierce defender of human rights and Israel's security.
