The Dems are reversing course so fast it’s hard to keep up.

It was just recently that, to the Democrats, bashing Israel and the ‘occupation’ was acceptable and not anti-Semitic. The resolution Congress cooked up is based on the House muzzie’s criticism of Israel, not of Jews. But in order to extend the resolution to the mythical backlash against muslims for Islamic atrocities, it was necessary that it morph into protection of peoples, not countries.

Congress now has its cake and gets to eat it, too. What was once, in their minds, two separate issues is now one issue, and one of the strands has been flipped on its head.

Omar’s targets are American Jews, not Israel. Most countries who can afford to do so lobby Congress. It’s how former Congressmen and former bureaucrats get rich.

You expressed it very well, perhaps better than I did. I deplore the practice of the ad hominem attack substituting for argument on the merits. We have seen that replayed on this thread, by the way.
