US House Democrats block bill opposing boycott of Jews(BDS)

As expected the neo-Nazi Democrat Party blocked legislation to combat the anti-Semitic BDS movement. To add insult to injury, this act of betrayal is just days after the AIPAC Policy Conference. A strong pro-Israel Jewish organization in the United States is urgently needed. An organization that is not afraid to go to war against the anti-Semitic Left. #Jexodus!

US House Democrats block anti-BDS bill

By JNS, March 5, 2020:

Democrats blocked a bill on Wednesday in the U.S. House of Representatives that would have prohibited U.S. support for the anti-Israel BDS movement.

THE ISRAEL ANTI-BOYCOTT ACT, INTRODUCED BY REP. LEE ZELDIN (R-N.Y.), WOULD HAVE EXPANDED THE EXPORT CONTROL REFORM ACT OF 2018 TO INCLUDE PROHIBITING U.S. SUPPORT FOR FOREIGN BOYCOTTS OF ISRAEL FROM GROUPS INCLUDING THE EUROPEAN UNION AND THE U.N. HUMAN RIGHTS COUNCIL.

Lawmakers defeated consideration of the bill by a tally of 219-194.

“We cannot be quiet when it comes to combating anti-Semitism and anti-Israel mentalities,” said Rep. Debbie Lesko (R-Ariz.) on the House floor. “We need to work together in Congress and pass common-sense legislation on this issue. H.R. 5595 does just that.”

“BDS tries to delegitimize Israel by turning it into a pariah state, cut off from all trade, tourism, military, diplomatic and cultural ties with the rest of the world,” said Zeldin, who mentioned in his speech on the House floor about the U.N. Human Rights Council releasing a blacklist of companies that do business in the West Bank.

The bill stated that it would not apply to “a person’s noncommercial speech or other noncommercial expressive activity.”

Democrats have been reluctant to support anti-BDS legislation due to First Amendment concerns, although it is unclear whether that rationale was the reason that House Democrats blocked the bill.

Tweets at link. The late NYC Mayor Ed Koch once said if Shitler ran for office, all he'd need to do was register as a Dem and he'd win with 60% of the Jewish vote.

Much like Democrats lost blue collar workers, the left will soon lose anyone that is (truly) Jewish.

To make up for it, the Dems will more fervently support the jihadis and do anything within their power to bring in more of them.

We all know the dems have chosen the Jew-haters. It became very obvious during bammy’s reign. He did everything he could to promote *slam, whose avowed goals are the destruction of Israel and the USA.

The D party is pure Nazi/commie leftist since soroznazi bought out the dnc/ party bosses. I never thought it possible but money talks. In fact, it screams.

I think and believe the Democrats should read Genisus 12.3. It details what happened to those who curse Israel.

We have seen all the signs.

The hatred of Jews and Christians. the media morphing into a propaganda outfit. The incessant attacks on speech, assembly and all the guaranteed Constitutional rights. antifa, the new Brown Shirts working for the party. calls for violence and even assassination against opponents. Big Tech censorship.

Democrats are setting up the overthrow of the freest country in the world. They are not just evil but satanic.
They are organized on a darkly spiritual level.

You are a fool if you have no gun.

They're all feelin' the Bern -- and they accept The Jihad Squad in their midst. So, no surprise here.
