MK to Tlaib: Arabs gave nothing to Jews except wars and death

Likud MK Michal Shir slams US Congresswoman Rashida Tlaib for saying her Palestinian ancestors provided “safe haven for Jews.”

Likud MK Michal Shir slammed US Congresswoman Rashida Tlaib on Sunday, saying that “Arabs gave nothing to post-Holocaust Jews except wars and death.”

The MK was responding to comments Tlaib had made, saying she was happy that her Palestinian ancestors provided a “safe haven for Jews” after the Holocaust. ADVERTISING Read More Related Articles

Recommended by Tlaib's interview, featured on a Skullduggery podcast titled "From Rashida with Love," which now appears to be "not found or is unavailable," discusses the past, the present and the future of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.

Suggesting that the US congresswoman should “open a history book once in a while,” Shir said Jews arriving in Israel had to face “repeated terror and rejection from the Arabs” and “had no choice but to defend themselves.”

She also suggested Tlaib “thank the IDF” for protecting Muslim Israeli citizens from Hamas, ISIS, and Islamic Jihad “who are only waiting for a chance to put their hands on them.”

"There’s always kind of a calming feeling when I think of the tragedy of the Holocaust, that it was my ancestors – Palestinians – who lost their land and some lost their lives, their livelihood, their human dignity and their existence, in many ways, has been wiped out… in the name of trying to create a safe haven for Jews, post-Holocaust, post-tragedy and the horrific persecution of Jews across the world at that time. And I love the fact that it was my ancestors that provided that in many ways,” Tlaib had said.

Tlaib also attacked Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, saying: "We can smell it from far away that, no, you don’t want to look at my grandmother in the eye, Netanyahu, and say ‘You are equal to me. You are as human as I am to you.’”

When asked about the two-state solution, Tlaib criticized Netanyahu and said she does not believe a two-state solution is currently possible because Netanyahu's doctrine prevents it. She added that the only way for a two-state solution to be possible today would be if Netanyahu "gets up tomorrow morning and decides: ‘I’m going to take down the walls, I’m not going to expand settlements, enough is enough.'"

True. But from the terrorist perspective that's a positive. And from the Democrat party perspective, not such a bad thing. The Arabs provided Jews a place to live, after all. By being so inept at terrorism as a military tactic. But not for want of trying. And any progressive would tell you, you get rewarded for trying.

All muslims did was take over other people’s land. That’s how they expanded. They did so by “submit or die” with their evil religion.

Everywhere this bag goes she should be jeered and heckled — same with the people that voted for her. They are all scum and should be treated as such.

She should also be investigated and prosecuted for any crime no matter how small. We can not allow people like this to infest the people’s House and we must fight back.

Let us make no mistake about it:

A vote for ANY Democrat, whether it be in a local, state or federal election, is a vote against America!

America cannot survive a Democrat victory in 2020!

She should read ‘The Mufti and The Fuehrer’ Joseph B. Schechtman
She’s rewriting history to make it look like the Palestinians welcomed the Jews after the war. It was nothing like that at all!
Hitler was the first to frame the “Palestinian Question”

Just finished a book titled, “God’s Battalion’s: The Case for the the Crusades: by Rodney Stark, that makes this and other points demonstrating that all of the ‘credit” Muslims take for civilization REALLY came from the dhimmi (sp?) who were forced at sword point to convert or those converted by treaty. All the Muslims did was take credit given to them by liberal scholars of the so-called “Enlightenment” and their modern-day apostles. Fascinating read. Highly recommended for those wishing to know the truth of the Crusades and the so-called “Dark Ages” (another lie).

It was eye-opening. The arguments he makes, when you think about them, are perfectly logical, but represent only a small portion of what we’re taught. I hope you enjoy it.
