Ilhan Omar and Rashida Tlaib Partnered with Vicious Anti-Semites to Plan Their Trip to Israel
NRO ^ | 16 Aug 2019 | David French

To the extent that I care at all about Israel blocking entry to two U.S. congresswomen who partner with anti-Semites who seek its destruction, I agree with critics who argue that Bibi Netanyahu should not appear to bow to Donald Trump’s tweeted demands and that blocking Rashida Tlaib and Ilhan Omar from visiting Israel handed them a short-term propaganda victory. But that’s not the most important part of the story.

The most important element of the story is the fact that two American congresswomen shunned a bipartisan congressional delegation to Israel to go on an independent trip to Israel sponsored by vicious anti-Semites. Another important element of the story is that, as of today, the mainstream media have whitewashed Omar and Tlaib’s vile associations.

Writing yesterday, the Washington Post said that “Omar and Tlaib’s trip to Jerusalem and the West Bank was planned by Miftah, a nonprofit organization headed by Palestinian lawmaker and longtime peace negotiator Hanan Ashrawi.” The New York Times described it as an organization “headed by a longtime Palestinian lawmaker.” In its editorial, the New York Times editorial board identified it as a group “that promotes ‘global awareness and knowledge of Palestinian realities.’”

This is a whitewash. Thanks to a Twitter thread from the Washington Examiner’s Seth Mandel — who pointed to multiple additional sources — I started looking at the articles and views published on the Miftah website, and it was like peeling an onion of evil. There was layer upon layer of vile anti-Semitism.

And to give you a sense of its ideology, here are two paragraphs from the treatise:

The Jew-controlled entertainment media have taken the lead in persuading a whole generation that homosexuality is a normal and acceptable way of life; that there is nothing at all wrong with White women dating or marrying Black men, or with White men marrying Asian women; that all races are inherently equal in ability and character — except that the character of the White race is suspect because of a history of oppressing other races; and that any effort by Whites at racial self-preservation is reprehensible.

We must oppose the further spreading of this poison among our people, and we must break the power of those who are spreading it. It would be intolerable for such power to be in the hands of any alien minority, with values and interests different from our own. But to permit the Jews, with their 3,000-year history of nation-wrecking, from ancient Egypt to Russia, to hold such power over us is tantamount to race suicide. Indeed, the fact that so many White Americans today are so filled with a sense of racial guilt and self-hatred that they actively seek the death of their own race is a deliberate consequence of Jewish media control.

I look forward to hearing apologists argue that these statements are merely critiques of “Israeli policies.”

So they are calling Trump supporters white supremacists while they are being sponsored by white supremacists.

I thought Israel changed their minds and are going to allow Tlaib in?

They didn't. The age of Obama opened the gates to Islam, BHO's agenda, remember NASA?... as well as to trash our Constitution which allowed the Marxist Social Warriors to more noticeably tear down those laws and try to bring Socialism to the table...HRC was and is a supporter...hence the Squad of colorful Muslim congresswomen, two who hate America and are in congress to disrupt....one is a real criminal, they all mean us harm.

My reading indicates Israel did offer Tlaib a humanitarian visa to visit her grandmother on condition she would not use the visit to politic. Tlaib, cutting her nose off to spite her face, turned down Israel’s offer.

Given her grandmother is in her nineties, Tlaib, through her stubborn anger, may have lost the last chance to visit her grandmother. Tlaib is an idiot.

Well, that’s a surprise.

I originally said I would be displeased if Israel banned US Congresspeople from visiting.

This puts a different light on it. I knew they had their own agenda, but I thought they were representatives of the US Congress. This explains that they spurned the Congressional Delegates trip to plan their own propaganda tour.

Better that they stay home.

As I understood it, Israel refused to let her on her planned trip but said they would let her in if she applied under their family visit program to see her grandmother - she refused.
