Israel on Thursday barred Reps. Ilhan Omar and Rashida Tlaib from entering the Jewish state, citing their support for a Palestinian-led boycott movement — a decision that unleashed a torrent of condemnation by Democratic congressional lawmakers.

“The decision has been made, the decision is not to allow them to enter.”
~ Israeli Deputy Foreign Minister Tzipi Hotovely
"No country in the world respects America and the American Congress more than the State of Israel. As a free and vibrant democracy, Israel is open to critics and criticism."
~ Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu
"Israel was very respectful & nice to Rep. Rashida Tlaib, allowing her permission to visit her grandmother. As soon as she was granted permission, she grandstanded & loudly proclaimed she would not visit Israel. Could this possibly have been a setup? Israel acted appropriately!"
~President Trump
"Israel has every right to ban people, no matter who they are, from its country who advocate BDS and want companies to stop doing business in Israel, consumers to stop buying Israeli products and academics and cultural figures to stop collaborating with Israeli colleagues...advocating for boycotts that harm Israel. Omar has political sympathies with the Muslim Brotherhood and the Qatari regime which sponsors international terrorism.
Last year, "Rashida Tlaib was featured at the Islamic Society of North America's annual conference alongside numerous radical figures, including individuals who have defended terrorist groups, openly called for violence against Israel, and pushed for extreme punishments for homosexuals."

ReplyDeleteI don't know why there would have to be so much discussion as to why Israel doesn't want these two bomb throwers in their country.
ReplyDeleteIt's unfortunate we have to have them in our country.
Freedom has its' limits, and right now, it's about to destroy our country.
