Its an old joke: How can you tell a politician is lying? His lips are moving.
It seems that may be the case for the first two Muslim women elected to the U.S. Congress. An analyst at the Gatestone Institute presented evidence that Ilhan Abdullahi Omar of Minnesota and Rashida Harbi Tlaib of Michigan lied to voters.
The charge comes from Soeren Kern, a senior fellow at the institute, who who wrote that most of the media coverage since their election Nov. 6 has been effusive in praise of their Muslim identity and personal history.
Less known is that both women deceived voters about their positions on Israel. Both women, at some point during their rise in electoral politics, led voters especially Jewish voters to believe that they held moderate views on Israel. After being elected, both women reversed their positions and now say they are committed to sanctioning the Jewish state.
Kern noted that both of the new Congress members support the anti-Israel boycott, divestment and sanctions, or BDS, movement.
Both are also explicitly or implicitly opposed to continuing military aid to Israel, as well as to a two-state solution to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict an outcome that would establish a Palestinian state alongside Israel. Instead, they favor a one-state solution an outcome that many analysts believe would, due to demographics over time, replace the Jewish state with a unitary Palestinian state.
Kern explains Omar, who replaced the first Muslim ever elected to Congress, Rep. Keith Ellison, in Minnesotas 5th congressional district, made her claims after controversy arose during her campaign.

The voters weren’t “deceived”
They had their heads up their asses.
Taqiyya. It is part of their battle plan.
Just didnt see it coming. The moslems hating jews thing is a total myth
I would actually say ALL Muslims, but I'm willing to give some of them the benefit of the doubt if they renounce their moonrock religion.
Both women, at some point during their rise in electoral politics, led voters especially Jewish voters to believe that they held moderate views on Israel.
Really? Deceived? Or blinded by a self Destructive belief system?
No. Anto semitism is alive and well across the US.
I am sure many knew and didn’t give a dam.
But hey, 70 percent of Jewws in this country vote for the party that hates them, so why be shocked at this result?
The left stopped hiding its disdain for Israel long ago
It is called Taqiyya. The easily fool and deceive ignorant fools.

...Those who are Mahometans, or any others who are not professors of the Christian religion, can never be elected to the office of President, or other high office, but in one of two cases.
First, if the people of America lay aside the Christian religion altogether, it may happen. Should this unfortunately take place, the people will choose such men as think as they do themselves.
Another case is, if any persons of such descriptions should, notwithstanding their religion, acquire the confidence and esteem of the people of America by their good conduct and practice of virtue, they may be chosen.
I leave it to gentlemen’s candor to judge what probability there is of the people’s choosing men of different sentiments from themselves...
Lying to the stupid infidels.
Taqiyya Sunrise
... alcohol free of course....
Didn’t one of these 2 scam their way into the US ?
She married her brother but if you talk about it you are clearly a rayciss.
True. Shocking.
They’re mohammedans. Therefore, they’re lying.
They’re politicians. Therefore, they’re lying.
They’re democRATs. Therefore, they’re lying.
Elected like Nancy Pelosi and Chuck Schumer are in tune with that thinking...they are willing to let their country, America, succumb to Islam...the Department of Justice is MIA when it comes to Honor Killings in this county, other civil servants, neighbors, and teachers are afraid to speak up....America is no longer the America with values our parents knew.
I believe they even have a word specifically for lying for the purpose to deceive in their language. I think it’s taqiyya. To deny their religion, thus under circumstance a muslim needs to lie it’s deemed OK under Sharia law.
In the case of these two women attempting to gain positions of leadership within what is considered a society hostile to their religion, and culture it is to be expected they would lie like HELL.
Lack of education wins again.
ROTFL. What did she do? Tell them she was an American? Stupid voters cast stupid ballots. Don’t blame the politicians.
Americans weaving the rope to hang themselves.
