Over 200 rabbis demand Pelosi take action on Omar's anti-Israel comments, say her rhetoric incites attacks against US Jews
Washington Examiner ^ | 6/17/21 | Lawrence Richard

Posted on 06/17/2021 7:57:06 PM PDT by Libloather

More than 200 rabbis sent a letter to House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, ridiculing her for not more strongly condemning Democratic Rep. Ilhan Omar and accusing the Minnesota Democrat of inciting attacks on American Jews.

"We reiterate that the mob attacks on American Jews today are directly attributable to the rhetoric of Rep. Omar and those who stand with her within and beyond Congress," the rabbis wrote in the letter Wednesday, which was organized by the Coalition of Jewish Values and its president, Rabbi Pesach Lerner.

The coalition said Pelosi’s response to the controversial comments was “far too mild” and argued a more acceptable response would be for Omar to be removed from her position on the House Foreign Affairs Committee.

"To protect Jewish Americans and, moreover, safeguard the integrity of the House Foreign Affairs Committee, we thus insist upon the removal of Rep. Omar from her appointment," they wrote.

Look at that, Nancy! I’ll bet you thought everybody had already forgotten about those nasty anti-Jew statements your Pal, Ms Omar keeps on making.

Yes it’s time they spoke up. But it’s way past time they quit voting for idiots like Pelosi and Biden.

Only if and when Jews wise up and start voting conservatively will I start to give a damn about their problems.

It is about time that secular Jews stop genuflecting in front of the idol of government and quit voting democratic.

For example. In the House of Representatives there are 27 members that are Jewish. 25 of them are Democrats.

In the Senate there are nine Jewish senators. Eight are Democrats. Then there’s Bernie. He’s an independent.

Of course she's laughing, those Jews aren't leaving the plantation. She has a much larger problem with Hispanics leaving the fold.

Suspect Jews are feeling particularly anxious and vulnerable now that Netanyahu, who unabashadly protected them, is no longer in power. Fact is that Omar spouts her vile rhetoric from the protected perch of the US Congress. Now others around the world will start spewing their hate and will be emboldened beause they once feared Netanyahu but for now he is gone.

Can someone give me a reference or link of the Democrat party's history of antisemitism? I'm on the verge of converting a Jewish guy I work with to seeing the conservative light.

Won’t do any good. Pelosi is an Italian fascist. Runs in the family. her brother the mayor of Baltimore deliberately let black rioters/looters, including those from out of state, burn out the small Jewish merchants in East Baltimore, including people I knew. Destroyed many businesses and a few lives. Put a lot of black employees out of work too, good decent people who I knew.

She’s today’s equivalent of a Mussolini whore.

I know. Tragic. I believe there was a movie many years ago about this called "The Dammed''.
