I promise you will never be in congress ... slave to whites and make sure you dress as Kkk to hide that ugly gray colored face of yours."

In another direct message, Hadid said, "unusual Black and colourful mouth for Israeli and Ai PAC [American Israel Public Affairs Committee] and looking for a payday of over 500k for the next term. You will get it ... unfortunately."

Mohamed Hadid had been a pro-Palestine man!

Notably, this is not the first time when Hadid has slammed Torres. Earlier, this year Mohamed's verified Instagram account also commented on Torres' Instagram post, where Torres is shown delivering a sermon at New York City's Central Synagogue.

"Sell out. Black out .. he forgot this is not about black and white it's not about Palestine or the Zionist state .. this is about a great Black man not a little ....kisser to your financial backers. As there will not be a single black person in your community that leaves a nice word about you, Mr. Nate .. selling your soul …”, Hadid had commented.

Speaking on the issue New York congressman Ritchie Torres said that he will not stop supporting Israel and Jewish people. "Since October 7th, I have been facing a flood of racist venom and vitriol simply because I express solidarity with both the Jewish people and the Jewish State. I will never capitulate to a racist mob," Ritchie said.

"Most haters hide behind anonymous social media accounts, but Mohamed Hadid is so proud of his hatred for me that he felt no need to shroud his racism in anonymity. Whether it is dehumanizing me as worse than the rats of the NYC sewage system or telling me to dress like the KKK to 'hide that gray colored face of yours,' Mr Hadid has hurled just about every racist insult at me shorting of calling me the N-word”, he further added while speaking with a media house.
