Rashida Tlaib says thinking of the Holocaust provides her a 'calming feeling....
Washington Examiner ^ | 12 May 2019 | Philip Klein

Rep. Rashida Tlaib, D-Mich., has made yet another shocking and historically ignorant claim: That thinking about the Holocaust gives her a "calming feeling" because her Palestinian ancestors provided a "safe haven" for Jewish victims of the tragedy.

Tlaib, a close ally of Rep. Ilhan Omar, D-Minn., who is no stranger to anti-Semitic controversies herself, made the latest statement on a podcast called "Skullduggery" in an episode titled "From Rashida with Love."

"There’s always kind of a calming feeling I tell folks when I think of the Holocaust, and the tragedy of the Holocaust, and the fact that it was my ancestors — Palestinians — who lost their land and some lost their lives, their livelihood, their human dignity, their existence in many ways, have been wiped out, and some people's passports," Tlaib said just after the 28 minute mark. "And just all of it was in the name of trying to create a safe haven for Jews, post-the Holocaust, post-the tragedy and the horrific persecution of Jews across the world at that time. And I love the fact that it was my ancestors that provided that, right, in many ways. But they did it in a way that took their human dignity away and it was forced on them.”

The Mufti of Jerusalem played a major role in bringing about the Holocaust.

She’s a pig. She needs to go. They need to make an example out of her. If not expect this times 100 in the next decade.

It’s kind of like someone put history into a food processor
turned it on blend and poured it into her brain.
She’s just regurgitating what ever comes out.

Satan and his minions, the perps, are also calmed when they think of the Holocaust.

Gee Tlaib, a lot of folks talk about obliterating Muslim countries so do you think that is freedom of speech or hate speech?

I’m sure she is just being quoted out of context, like her “some people did something.” It’s really sad that she always seems to be quoted out of context. Probably because of ‘islamophobia’.

Let’s say the Holocaust victims weren’t welcomed with opened arms. There was quite a bloodbath and for the sake of historical accuracy we should admit that both sides were guilty as sin. But the guiltiest party were British who inspired the violence between Palis and Jews for own goals.

Remember when obama said the call to prayer was the prettiest sound on earth...
To my ears, it’s a sorry sound.

This woman is full of hate for anyone not a muslin..and especially the Jews.
