Kevin McCarthy asks Dems to denounce alleged anti-Semitic remarks:‘This will not be the end of this'
Fox News ^ | February 8, 2019 | Matt Richardson

Posted on 02/08/2019 2:42:54 PM PST by jazusamo

House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy, R-Calif., tore into House Democrats on Friday for what he alleged was a lack of action against Democratic freshman lawmakers for alleged anti-Semitic remarks they made in recent weeks, comparing the situation to what the country experienced during World War II.

Two lawmakers, Reps. Rashida Tlaib, D-Mich. and Ilhan Omar, D-Minn., have come under fire for controversial comments.

Tlaib, last month, questioned if Senate Republicans were more loyal to Israel than the United States. Following a report that GOP leaders were planning to introduce a bill that would punish companies that participate in the so-called "Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions" (BDS) global movement against Israel, Tlaib said the GOP members “forgot what country they represent.”

That remark came just days after Tlaib vowed to “impeach the mother----er,” in a reference to President Trump.

Omar, meanwhile, recently faced backlash after she compared Israel to Iran, adding that she “almost chuckle(s)” when the Jewish state is labeled a democracy.

...Because they know that AntiFa, the “Social” “Justice” “Warriors”, nearly all of intelligentsia, and most of the mainstream media have their backs on this. Israel is the ‘Devil-Country-du-jour’, just like South Africa was in the seventies and eighties.

Penalties to one’s livelihood and career for being supportive of Israel are becoming steeper and steeper.

Thanks to McCarthy and we wish him every possible success in Draining the Democratic Nazi swamp

unfortunately, it will take a whole lot of effort to achieve any progress, since the DNC (Democrappic Nazi Communist) party machine has taken control of the House

Pelousy the mass-baby-murderer seems to be quite happy with openly anti-American Nazi/IslamoNazis in her delegation

As a Jewish pro-Trump ultraconservative I resent the Dems’ normalization of anti-Semitism. It is hypocritical to deny Jews ony strip of land in the midst of millions of acres of land for their avowed enemies (UAE,Syjria,Iraq,Qatar,Egypt,Iran,etc.). The Palestinians, as someone explained are to the other Arabs the “urban welfare people” of the U S but living in the Middle East.

Thus, all the Arab countries say “no, we don’t want them” “No, we won’t pay to take care of them—have them get a job” is the attitude.

So, push them out onto the State of Israel’s narrow land and let them get on Israeli welfare. Followed by whiny, self-pitying demonstrations and violent sabotage and terrorist bombings by the PLO “refugees”-—How can someone be so lazy and shiftless and stupid that they are STILL a refugee sitting on the ground waiting for someone to rescue them after 70 years (1948). Again, like generations many urban families in the U S on welfare.
Sounds just like our ghettoes.

Much like the Untouchables in India's old caste system.

True.

Eliot Ness wouldn’t have liked to hear it, but he wasn’t in India so okay.

What consequences will he suffer? Will they call him an Islamophobe, or a racist? Or will they just have some goons jump him in the parking lot? Or all three?

Two lawmakers, Reps. Rashida Tlaib, D-Mich. and Ilhan Omar, D-Minn., have come under fire for controversial comments.

The list of anti-Semites among Democrats in the House doesn't end with these two. Count Ocasio-Cortez in that bunch, as well as others. It's a reflection of an anti-Semitic problem in the US that is, percentage-wise, most prevalent in Moslems, younger blacks, and unassimilated Hispanics. Not by coincidence, they are all targeted Democratic voting blocs. Therein lies the reluctance of other congressional Democrats to rebuff their blatantly ant-Semitic colleagues.

Separately, I don't quite get McCarthy's comparison to World War II. Is he referring to Nazi Germany or to the United States?

Agree with Muslims and unassimilated Hispanics. To some extent other "unassimilated", as in foreign born, immigrants. Blacks, the most antisemitic group in the US, and I don't think it's dependent by age. Muslims might deserve that distinction, but they don't seem to be surveyed. I suspect that has more to do with fear or political vias of the poll takers rather than a lack of enough Muslims to poll.

World inaction in response to growing official Jew-hate in Europe emboldened Nazis to implement the Holocaust. McCarthy is noting we are heading down that same road.

Jews were far from the only targets for death by Nazis, and Jews won’t be the only target when Dems implement their own Final Solution to traditional America.
