Brooklyn lawmaker blasts Rep. Omar, says ‘Palestine does not exist’
NY Post ^ | March 27, 2019 | Rich Calder, Ruth Weissmann and Ruth Brown

Posted on 03/28/2019 8:46:17 AM PDT by EinNYC

A Brooklyn lawmaker set off a social media storm Wednesday by denying the existence of Palestine and accusing Rep. Ilhan Omar of being an anti-Semite.

“Palestine does not exist,” tweeted Councilman Kalman Yeger, who represents Midwood and other neighborhoods with large Jewish populations.

Once again, we are reminded of the absolute drooling idiocy of Council Speaker Corey Johnson, who was quick to denounce these two honest statements from Councilman Yeger. Omar IS an antisemite and, there is NO such country as Palestine. This Councilman Brannan is a tattooed ex-rock-band musician, so a libtard response from him would likely be expected.

The tweet replies to Councilman Yeger from the tweet-o-sphere were overwhelmingly pro-Palestinian and anti-Israel. Even people with supposedly Jewish names were archly defending "Palestine" and dissing Israel. It was very frightening to read these tweets and from them, realize how deep the moral and intellectual rot in this country is. The tweets were the same ol', same ol' garbage about how mean Israel is, they shot a Palestinian, etc. NOWHERE was mentioned in this flurry of tweets slamming Councilman Yeger were any of the innocent Israeli families, particularly little kids, who were murdered by this human stream of filth, palascumians. The indoctrination project by the libtards in charge of education for the past 30 years is bearing fruit, having created a Trojan horse contrary to American values and morality in general in our midst. Very scary, folks.

Some person on here took great offense to my statement that “Anti Israel is a safer way of showing your anti antisemitism.

He was, of course, wrong.

As for Jews here who are against Israel, well, America is their first country so there is nothing inherently wrong about being against another country or its policies.

Except in this case, basing their opinions on the merits, they are VERY wrong.

“Palestine” was an invention of the cruel Roman occupiers of the Jewish promised land. The term was intended as part of the Roman dicyators’ Campaign to destroy the Jewish people and any memory of their homelands, faith, or culture. (The so-called “palestinians” are almost all Muslim Arabs of Arabian Syrian or Egyptian origin - with the clever — soviet kgb- inspired label to mislead innocent observers about their true origins and identities ). No matter any facts , they’ve proven themselves to be as bloodthirsty and dangerous as isis and the Iranian dictators— for there to ( eventually- it will take time) be any possible peace, their hostile Occipation of the Jewish Promised Land must be swiftly ended, they must be repatriated to their own Muslim- conquered countries ( to be “humanitarian” to those who least deserve it) or eliminated directly as necessary-

[[The so-called “palestinians” are almost all Muslim Arabs of Arabian Syrian or Egyptian origin -]]

Who were country-less- wandered around, asking for land they could call their own- Egypt, and other arab nations didn’t want them and wouldn’t grant them any land from their vast wealth of land- so the palestinians wandered near Israel and laid claim to land that was not theirs- Arabs own vast vast tracts of land in the middle east- yet palestine wants a tiny nation, Israel, to forfeit their God given land over to them- Israel is about the size of NJ while the land surrounding Israel in the middle east is 1000’s and 1000’s of miles long-

The neurotic obsession of arab people against Israel is unreal- Israel is but a drop in the bucket land-wise compared to what Arab people own-

It’s true.

There IS no “Palestine,” except for the PLO/terrorist enclave begun by the Nobel Prize Winning murderous muslim thug Yassir Arafat.

There is NO, ZERO, historical evidence of a “palestinian state”, no flag, no lineage of kings (or sheikhs), no buildings, no documentation whatsoever.

Palestinians burrow under “their” parts of Jerusalem and traditional Israeli lands destroying historical evidence of the fully documented and proven residence of those lands and structures by historical jews.

Israeli archaeologists sift through the rubble and dust tailings the PLO/Hamas terrorists dump out to find ttidbits missed by the rabid, inbred troglodytes like coins, jewelry, arrowheads, potsherds and other references to King Solomon, Goliath, and more.

There has never been a single bit of archaeological evidence of “palestinians” though. And modern day so-called palestinians are doing their best to erase the ingrained, depth of history of jewish culture and residence.

I hesitate to use the word “occupation” because to PLO/hamas scum, this means JOOS! are in their lands and must be driven into the sea with suicide bombing, knife attacks, using US/UN funds to build assault tunnels into Israel, buying/launching weapons of focal destruction (a 500kg bomb might be considered a WMD if it hits a stadium or such, but so far so good and the palis aren’t using those - yet) “By Any Means Necessary” as it were, while, for Israelis, and other right-thinking people (sane, NON-muslim), the word occupation means what someone does for a living; legitimate jobs which move culture forward, create things, help others.

God bless you Councilman Yeger. Speak truth to the wannabe all-powerful global caliphate and its moles in our American legislature.

Stand firm.

Ah, my pop was from Italy and all my grandparents were and I’m outraged that they just signed an agreement with China against Western and US interests.

But I still love the country though angry at what they did, don’t want the downfall of the govt or country.

It would take a LOT more than that.

And I hope they are as brutal as they nee to be when it comes to illegals entering and causing grief.

So you are right.

Hating Israel without knowing ANYTHING of what’s going on there, is absurd.

Actually it’s absurd for ANyONE, just especially Jewish folks

There once was a place called Palestine, but there was never a Palestinian people. A county’s worth of people living in a barren desert does not constitute a nation. 80% of the people who are considered Palestinian are foreigners from all over the Mideast.

We (they) have had a longer and deeper connection to Israel? Cool :)

And longer?

Please tell :)

I’m sure you know A LOT more about Italian history than I do.

Of course I visit and even have relatives but would be lying if I said I know a WHOLE lot about their history.

I know about Israel’s history lol

The path to any possible peace will either be to reintegrate the Fakestinians into Arabian Egyptian Iraqi Syrian ( when war there ends) society. (Or they’ll just get themselves deservedly wiped out the next time they attack Israel, whose patience exceeds Job’s but there’s a natural limit to how much terrorism a nation can tolerate).
