NEW YORK CITY, NEW YORK: Fox News host Judge Jeanine Pirro made it clear that she does not want Gazan refugees in America. While on 'The Five', Pirro said that it should only be considered when the American hostages are safe. 

The conversation was ignited by the demand of the Democratic Congress group 'The Squad' to provide refuge to Palestinians who are left with no place to go outside of the Gaza Strip, causing hundreds of them to die each day. 

Pirro was not on board with the group's attempts to have this operation underway. 

Jeanine Pirro slams the offer of free flights to refugees

The Fox News host first attacked Dem Rep Jamaal Bowman for having offered free travel to Palestinians, most of whom are left with little to no resources in the heavily destroyed Gaza. 



 

"The question is how are we involved in any of this? When Jamaal Bowman, the fire extinguisher-pusher says 'US should welcome the Palestinian refugees'...and suggesting that we fly them here while we charge Americans to fly home from Israel. They want to fly the refugees here for free," Pirro exclaimed as if she couldn't believe it. 

She also proposed the condition for when refugees should be allowed inside the US borders. 

"Why would we take even one refugee if we don't have a [American] hostage home? That is the pre-condition."

Jeanine Pirro questions FBI on terror threat dismissals

The judge started by targetting Christopher Wray, the current director of the FBI, whom she "always has an issue with."

"On October 12, the FBI said there is no credible threat of terrorism. NBC on October 12, four days ago, had a headline saying 'Conservatives stoke fear of Hamas attack in the US'. Now, all of a sudden, there's terrorists. They are going to pop up anywhere anytime and they are saying 'You gotta stay vigilant, all of you out there.' Why disagree? I think he's [Christopher's] gotta stay vigilant...Maybe they should be doing things that they were supposed to do after 9/11 but decided to give up," the host said. 

She also went on to question, "When they said that they weren't worried anyone was going to attack, why do we have all these agencies out there? What are they doing?" 

Pirro closed off her statements by saying, "Israel, go in there, do what you gotta do, get rid of them so the world can finally take a breath."
