Well, this was predictable. Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) came to the defense of her terrorist-sympathizing colleagues known for peddling anti-Semitic tropes today. The call was made and the anti-Semitism defense league was assembled. Why? Well, as Katie noted, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu barredReps. Rashida Talib (D-MI) and Ilhan Omar (D-MN) from entering the country and rightfully so. Both women support the Boycott, Sanctions, and Divestment Movement, which is viciously anti-Israel. And by vicious, I mean, these clowns are pushing for the destruction of the Jewish state:
The Israeli government announced Thursday morning pro-BDS movement and anti-Semitic Democrat lawmakers Ilhan Omar and Rashida Tlaib will not be allowed to enter the country. The two were scheduled to land in Tel Aviv on Friday. Tlaib has been informed she can apply for a humanitarian visa if she would like to visit her Palestinian family. Israel has a long-standing policy to block BDS supporters from entering the country.
AOC then accused Netanyahu of supporting a message that only some Americans are welcome (via The Hill):
MoC are frequently asked to visit Israel to “see things for ourselves.”
But Netanyahu choosing to ban the only 2 Muslim women in Congress from entering tells the US that only *some* Americans are welcome to Israel, not all.
Trump is exporting his bigotry &making matters worse. https://t.co/PFdMDxuIfJ— Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (@AOC) August 15, 2019
Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) tore into Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu after he announced he would not permit Reps. Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.) and Rashida Tlaib (D-Mich.) entry for an upcoming trip to Israel and the Palestinian territories.
“[Members of Congress] are frequently asked to visit Israel to ‘see things for ourselves,’” Ocasio-Cortez tweeted. “But Netanyahu choosing to ban the only 2 Muslim women in Congress from entering tells the US that only *some* Americans are welcome to Israel, not all.”
[…]
Netanyahu defended the decision to deny entry to the two congresswomen, saying the move is in line with a new law that would prevent any supporter of the Boycott, Divest and Sanction movement against Israel from visiting the country.
“The two-member congressional visitation plan shows that their intent is to hurt Israel and increase its unrest against it,” Netanyahu said in a statement.
Both congresswomen voted against a nonbinding resolution last month condemning the so-called BDS movement.
According to their own itinerary, Ilhan Omar and Rashida Tlaib chose to refer to Israel as “Palestine”.
Their trip there was little more than a self-indulgent ploy to delegitimize and malign the Jewish State from within its borders. pic.twitter.com/yjDEUeMayo— Harry Khachatrian (@Harry1T6) August 15, 2019
Such a diplomatic embarrassment by two people who wanted to embarrass a US ally. https://t.co/mE7f0XS8vl— Dana Loesch (@DLoesch) August 15, 2019
Representatives Omar and Tlaib are the face of the Democrat Party, and they HATE Israel!— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) August 15, 2019
"Can you believe Israel banned those two terrorist-sympathizing anti-Semites from entering its country?" cried the writer whose co-workers had a complete meltdown over the thought of a guy who opposes baby murder working on the same floor as them.— Sean Davis (@seanmdav) August 15, 2019
Yes, they did. Oh, and Omar compared BDS to the Boston Tea Party. Tlaib equated the BDS movement’s activities against Israel as akin to a boycott on the Nazi Party. Omar has given the House Democratic leadership serial heartburn for peddling anti-Jewish remarks. She invoked the dual loyalty smear against those who support Israel. Oh, and these women reportedly didn’t even refer to Israel on their itinerary. They called it “Palestine.” So not only are they historically illiterate, they’re making up countries as well. Palestine does not exist. And yes, the Left will foam at the mouth over this. Let them.
Rep. Omar reportedly hosted secret fundraisers for groups with terror ties. Tlaib once hosted an event for an anti-Israel activist who endorsed terrorism. Yeah, I don't see why this gruesome twosome was barred from entering Israel (sarc.)
If the UK can ban Michael Savage, then Israel can sure bump a couple of real enemies of the State
That's hardly a justification.
Taco Bell and Church's Chicken have banned that jackass.
If you have a individual that told you he busy working to get people to boycott you, take your house and give away the land your house sits on; would you invite him over for supper?
OTOH - let them in and throw them in the dungeon for a few decades...
Their laws.
Their borders.
Their country.
We could learn something.
Fun idea:
Ban them from entering the United States. Terrorists presenting a proven danger to our citizens.
They can fully enjoy Somalia and any Muslim hellhole they wish. We can generously provide toilet paper for them to bring in case of shortages. And water filtration tube for drinking from any pond or pooled rain water they encounter.
No more horrible United States they hate so much. Problems solved.
P.S. That water device was in a picture I saw. So sad. A woman in Africa was able to avoid the disease carrying bacteria in a pool of water if she bent down and used the filter tube as shown by an aid worker.
We have so much in this country that millions lack. Even basics like safe water.
Let them in and give them the Rachel Corrie tour.
Thanks so very much to President Trump for advising Jerusalem to keep these dangerous hate=mongers OUT.
however,
there’s a report that a large delegation of suppposedly GOP congress-critters actually is meeting with the Abbas-PLO terrorist murder gangsters in Israel (Ramallah) TODAY!
this in my humble opinion is absolutely SICKENING and UNIMAGINABLE (unless they’re there to shoot the terrorists dead, at long last, which of course is not likely....)
These Quislings need to be voted OUT...ASAP....and prosecuted for... giving aid and comfort to enemies of the USA, and any additional applicable charges. They belong in prison at the very least, and I for one find their action to be ABSOLUTELY REVOLTING for any American citizen (and especially any entrusted with positions of some power such as congress=critters, for Heaven’s sakes!)
just my opinion...
but at ANY event the socalled GOP needs MAJOR MAJOR Swamp Draining!!!!! i pray tha President Trump can find ways to accomplish much more of his campaign promise to drain the WashDC swamp.. as much of it as humanly possible, soon.
Politics aside, they should be kept out of any country because of their ugliness alone. Just looking at them makes me want to hurl.
Common sense.
They only wanted to go, to undermine Israel.
It was a good decision to not allow them in.
Quite a messed up world where you can be called a bigot by a genuine bigot and the media take’s the real bigot’s side. All over filthy, disgusting leftist politics.
Mr Netanyahu is great. He loves Israel, they don’t. So they can bugger off, as the Brits would say. I ain’t in no ways tired of WINNING. The Donald and Ben show at its finest.
e can generously provide toilet paper for them to bring in case of shortages
Don’t remind me. I thought of that later on my own. Trying to unthink it now. And they’re on a mission to undermine all the infidel nations like ours? Fuhhgeddaboutit.
Taco Bell and Church's Chicken have banned that jackass.Oh no! Say it isn't so. Taco Bell and Church's Chicken, the pillars of society banned Michael Savage?
Who doesn't look to Taco Bell and Church's chicken for moral guidance?
The Horror!
Bookmark.
Agreed.
p
I pray that these two bottom-feeding, anti-American, anti-Semites get voted out of office in 2020. They are a national disgrace.
Follow the money and expose their corruption.
