In Advancing BDS, Omar and Tlaib Are Waging War against Israel

There are two enduring challenges to its existence that Israel must face: terrorist organizations and their state sponsors who want to conquer the Jewish state militarily, and the anti-Israel Boycott, Disinvestment and Sanctions (BDS) movement founded that uses economic, cultural, and political isolation to achieve the same outcome. Both are dedicated to eliminating Israel and replacing it with a Palestinian state that would no doubt be shaped by Islamic extremists.

So, when Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu refused to allow Rashida Tlaib and Ilhan Omar to meet with the sponsors and supporters of the BDS movement in Palestinian-controlled territories he did so, not because Donald Trump said to do so, but because it was clear that they were using their position as members to Congress to advance the war against the Jewish state being conducted by BDS.

The 2017 law barring BDS supporters was designed to prevent BDS from establishing a forward base inside Israel, not as punishment. Tlaib and Omar are not just advocates for BDS, they have become among the most influential leaders of the BDS movement.

Omar and Tlaib want to make Israel hating a normal, if not critical, element of American politics in the same way that Jeremy Corbyn has done in Great Britain. And like Corbyn, Omar and Tlaib want to use their political authority to implement the BDS program in cooperation with that movement’s founders and funders.

This has gotten out of hand. You have the dems on vacations in five star hotels all over Europe and Africa, other dems for president gimping for money in Mexico and these two idiots protesting Israel with the radical BDS which is basically a muslim brotherhood tentacle. Both Omar and Talib have brotherhood ties.
