Ilhan Omar seizes spotlight to push pro-BDS resolution
Al Momitor ^ | July 16, 2019 | Bryant Harris

House Democrats today rallied around a resolution to condemn President Donald Trump’s racist tweets against four high-profile freshmen congresswomen.

But at least one of those congresswomen — Rep. Ilhan Omar of Minnesota — is about to drop her own resolution that may not go over so well with Democratic leadership. Her resolution would defend the pro-Palestinian boycott, divestment and sanctions (BDS) movement against Israel.

“We are introducing a resolution … to really speak about the American values that support and believe in our ability to exercise our first amendment rights in regard to boycotting,” Omar told Al-Monitor. “And it is an opportunity for us to explain why it is we support a nonviolent movement, which is the BDS movement.”

According to a post on Twitchy the Anti-Semitic resolution has the gall of comparing the BDS movement to boycoting Nazi Germany.

Since she immigrated here by fraud, it is time to send her back. We did it with Nazis.

Ilhan Omar wishes that she could wear her stylish swastika headscarf out in public.

Hating Israel is very popular with some. They will find true joy with the Antichrist. I hope they enjoy it.

Ended a friendship last night after hearing again that I am a racist and antisemitic.

The whole point of the baseless claim is to influence me in hope that I will not support Trump.

These people are very scary.

Even last week I was informed my mother would be sorely disappointed in me if she knew.

Well: She voted for Trump

“She wasn’t a very good Christian then”.

My Mom died last year

I’ll leave it up to y’all to judge what kind of person would say that to their supposed best friend who had always been there for anything and everything.

This is exactly what I posted on FB to my fellow Dem Jews: You Jews who vote for this SHIT are just like those in NAZI Germany thinking this can never happen here! But this American Jew will never give up my 1st Amendment Rights protected by my 2nd Amerndment Rights unlike the Jews in Germany:-) BTW how did all the Jews mostly get identified, why Socialized Health Care RECORDS:-)

Well it would be nice to be able to take care of everyone.

Unfortunately, one country can’t do it.

And, to boot, the majority vote Democrat. That helps Planned Parenthood and Obama with “marriage” for turning the USA into Sodom and Gomorrah.

I too lost a very good friend. Over Hillary.

The woman who said she wanted to be the first U.S. President to march in a gay pride parade.

Ya can’t make this stuff up.

Will the idiot liberal Jews finally notice who are the real anti-semites?

Most liberal Jews are against the reborn nation of Israel.

So I doubt many will change.

However, there are some odd liberals out there.

Like Scarlett Johansson. Who is not only a liberal, apparently supports the IDF (from what I read).

BUT she was an Obama supporter. Oy vey.

I hope a few moderates and independents wake up, though.

The Nazis boycotted Jewish businesses until they could do what the really wanted to do.
The Arab League members boycotted Israel, waiting until they can do what they really want to do.Jew haters hate Jews.
Jew haters hate Jews. Jew blamers blame Jews. Jew killers kill Jews.
BDS is the current manifestation of a long tradition of boycott, hate, blame, and kill.

SJ has a Jewish mother and considers herself Jewish.

She also holds Danish citizenship via her father.
