I would like to see more explanations of how Tlaib gets away with her interpretation of the river quote as being ambiguous. Maybe she means it in a nice way. /S

All the Jews of Israel live between the Jordan River and the Mediterranean Sea.

Revised Wikipedia:
The slogan has been used by militant groups –including Hamas and Palestinian Islamic Jihad– that have vowed to destroy Israel.

It is regarded by many to be antisemitic or hate speech, suggesting that it denies the right of Jews for self-determination, or advocates for their removal or extermination.

It has also come under scrutiny in Germany, Austria, the Netherlands, the US and the United Kingdom, where it has been proposed to classify its usage as a criminal offense.

They got the west bank of the river, and Gaza by the sea. What are they complaining about?
