The Smearing of Ilhan Omar

[P F Tinmore]

It is hard to believe we would see the day American citizens would elect an Islamic terrorist to Congress.

If Omar is an "Islamic terrorist", give your evidence to the authorities so she can be arrested for her terrorism.

They just throw around terrorist cards like candy at a blossom time parade.

 

[P F Tinmore]

And let's be honest for once: Israel is absolutely ringed on all sides by hostile Arab nations that wish it would vanish into the sea.
If Israel simply sat back and waited for it's enemies to strike first, like in the Six Day War where Egypt led a coalition of a four nation army against Israel, it would have been annihilated by forces gathered in the Sinai peninsula.

It's easy for the bully to cry and whine when it gets punched before it has a chance to strike. In this case Israel had no other option.

The Zionists should have put Israel someplace else than in Palestine.

I may have been wrong. I just looked up the ethnicity of her district (2010)

Population: 677,196
Gender: 49.48% Male, 50.52% Female
Race[1]: 70.2% White, 15.6% Black, 5.8% Asian, 1.2% Native American
Ethnicity: 9.7% Hispanic
Unemployment: 9.5%
Median household income
$50,923
High school graduation rate
89.5%
College graduation rate
42.4%

Keith Ellison's old district, you know, the Muz\zie woman beater. That district is now home to 1000s of Somalis that Obama brought in.

Fucking low life...

Corporate Democrats like Pelosi are well aware that "dual loyalty" has lost its effectiveness over the past three decades as an "anti-Semitic slur" because over that period support for Israel "has become increasingly associated with conservative evangelicals and the Republican Party."

"In the latest round of controversy, Omar said during a town hall, regarding U.S. policy toward Israel, 'I want to talk about the political influence in this country that says it is okay for people to push for allegiance to a foreign country.'

"This comment was roundly condemned by members of Congress and many others for being anti-Semitic. Rep. Eliot L. Engel (D-N.Y.) called her statement 'a vile anti-Semitic slur' and accused her of questioning 'the loyalty of fellow American citizens.'"

Democrats who have ignored Israel's human rights violations over the past fifty years were quick to call for a resolution of condemnation.

"Now, back to Omar. Here’s the truth: The whole purpose of the Democrats’ resolution is to enforce dual loyalty not among Jews, but among members of Congress, to make sure that criticism of Israel is punished in the most visible way possible.

"This, of course, includes Omar.

"As it happens, this punishment of criticism of Israel is exactly what the freshman congresswoman was complaining about, and has on multiple occasions.

"The fact that no one seems to acknowledge that this is her complaint shows how spectacularly disingenuous Omar’s critics are being."

"When the most prominent supporters of Israel are people like Mike Huckabee and Sarah Palin, 'dual loyalty' loses any meaning as a slur against Jews."

Was this on the comic page?

 

[Darkwind]

That is amusing.

There is no 'dual loyalty'. Isreal is a friend and ally of the US, and as such, are deserving of support in our government. At least they are not lighting off bombs targeting women and children in innocent marketplaces.

Why do you believe Jews have the right to steal land and water from non-Jews in Palestine?

New York Times lets Israel do its "fact checking"

"According to the Israeli human rights group B’Tselem, which keeps meticulous statistics, 823 Israeli civilians were killed from 29 September 2000 until the end of January this year, along with 433 'Israeli security force personnel.'

"In the same period, nearly 10,000 Palestinians have been killed by Israel – the equivalent of dozens of September 11s, to use Stephens’ yardstick – although for him, Palestinian casualties apparently don’t matter at all."

The non-Jews in Palestine didn't have any land to steal. It wasn't theirs.

Do you want to know when the marketplace bombings by Arabs stopped being a thing?

IT was when they built the wall.

Until then, Palestinians and other assorted terror filth routinely blew up children, mothers, and innocents in market places, coffee bazaars, and public transportation.

[Eric Arthur Blair]

The Zionists should have put Israel someplace else than in Palestine.

Why? Israeli pioneers were buying up land in Palestine for decades before the Balfour decree from absentee Turkish landlords.
If anyone should have been denied land it was the problematic stateless squatters known as Palestinian but none of their own Arab brethren would have them.

The UN gave both factions, Palestinians and Jews, a state of their own with which to prosper and conduct their own affairs.
Israel said thank you and went to work making the desert bloom and forming a modern democratic society.

The Palestinians said never will we live along side the Jews. They lived in squalor and ignorance because their number one goal was not improving their own land but cutting the throats of their Jew neighbors. They raised their own children to die in the cause of slaughtering Jews.

The offspring of Arafat have been a blight on the face of the earth for decades now. Better to have dropped a nuclear bomb on the Palestinians than continue to endure their hateful barbarism.

Let us know when Israel throws dissidents in the wood chipper

Shot any kids lately?

Israeli sniper fatally wounds Gaza child

"A 15-year-old boy died hours after being shot during protests Wednesday evening in the Malika area east of Gaza City, the health ministry in the territory announced early Thursday.

"Israeli snipers shot Saif al-Din Imad Nasir Abu Zaid in the head and wounded six others with live bullets, according to Wattan TV...."

"Targeting children

"Israeli forces have killed at least 40 children in the context of the Great March of Return protests along the Gaza-Israel boundary since their launch on 30 March last year.

"About 190 Palestinians have been killed during the protests.

"A United Nations independent commission of inquiry recently published its preliminary report stating that it had collected evidence of war crimes and crimes against humanity by Israel which has used lethal military force against unarmed protesters."

Palestinians have no credibility

Palestinians have no credibility

Palestinians have more credibility than those stealing their land and water and murdering their children:

UN investigators call for arrests over Gaza war crimes

"Israeli forces may have committed war crimes and crimes against humanity by using lethal military force against unarmed protesters in Gaza, a United Nations independent commission of inquiry has found.

"'Israeli security forces committed serious violations of human rights and international humanitarian law,' Santiago Canton, the head of the commission, stated on Thursday.

"'These violations clearly warrant criminal investigation and prosecution,” he added.'

"'Israeli forces] have intentionally shot children, they’ve intentionally shot people with disabilities, they’ve intentionally shot journalists, knowing them to be children, people with disabilities and journalists,' Sara Hossain, one of the other three investigators appointed by the UN Human Rights Council, said.

You have to be a real fool to defend Omar

Imagine how foolish you'll feel when she moves into the White House?

Republicans and Democrats Say Their Criticism of Ilhan Omar Is About Anti-Semitism. They’re Gaslighting You.

"SO LET ME get this straight: The president of the United States has called neo-Nazis 'very fine people'; retweeted neo-Nazis; told an audience of Jewish-Americans that Israel is 'your country'; and indulged in viciously anti-Semitic conspiracy theories.

"While running for office, he tweeted an image of Hillary Clinton inside a Star of David, next to a pile of cash; told an audience of Jewish donors, 'You want to control your politicians, that’s fine'; and put out a campaign ad that attacked three rich and powerful Jewish figures.

"While a private citizen, he insisted only 'short guys that wear yarmulkes' should count his money and kept a book of Adolf Hitler’s speeches on his bedside table.

He has never apologized for any of this. Nor has he been censured by Congress."

You hit the nail on the head! This is exactly what is happening to Congresswoman Omar and the rest of the country. Israeli influence in our government is so prevalent, anything with the "color" of negativity towards Israel, will not be tolerated.

Well, here's my message to Congress, "Fuck Israel!"

 

[Toddsterpatriot]

Well Eliot L. Engel is a jew, and to be fair it was 23 Republicans in the House who voted down the vote to ban hate speech of all. Also it was the Republican who wanted to have only an anti Semitic bill, and with the 2 Jews in the GOP House and O in the GOP Senate , PROVES the point they are just hypocrites.

It passed easily in a 407-23 vote, and all the "no" votes came from Republicans. Many GOP lawmakers said they would oppose it because Democrats diluted its message against anti-Semitism.
After days of Democratic hand-wringing, House votes to condemn hate speech

--------------------------------
are you aware there is a difference between anti Semitism and anti Zionism.

are you aware there is a difference between anti Semitism and anti Zionism.

The former says, "I hate the Jews" the latter says, "I hate the Jews and I hate Israel"

Wrong. Not all Israelis are Jews. And not all Jews support Israel.

Before you start WHINING about the UN, kindly remember it was a UN Resolution that brought the Jewish state into existence.

The UN of 1938 is not the anti Jewish hotbed of the 2019 UN. Someone should check and see the religious background of Sara Hossain, since she is the one making all these unproven charges.
She is from Bangladesh and the country is overwhelmingly Muslim. It's not proof she is lying.
It's something to strongly consider.

Palestinians are always starting the trouble, with Israel ending it…

 

[georgephillip]

I see a bunch of bigots. Lots of people don't like the influence Israel has on our country. The Palestinian/Israel conflict has two sides. Both sides share blame in the violence.

I wonder how Texans would react if the federal government took their land & made a new country from it.

A Jewish "homeland" (not state) in Palestine was deemed necessary during WWI in order to encourage prominent US Jews to lobby President Wilson to enter that conflict on the side of the Allied Powers:

Divide and Conquer as Imperial Rules - FPIF

"Following the absorption of the Ottoman Empire after World War I, the British set about shoring up their rule by the tried and true strategy of pitting ethnic group against ethnic group, tribe against tribe, and religion against religion.

"When British Foreign Secretary Arthur James Balfour issued his famous 1917 Declaration guaranteeing a 'homeland' for the Jewish people in Palestine, he was less concerned with righting a two thousand year old wrong than creating divisions that would serve growing British interests in the Middle East.

"Sir Ronald Storrs, the first Governor of Jerusalem, certainly had no illusions about what a 'Jewish homeland' in Palestine meant for the British Empire: 'It will form for England,' he said, 'a little loyal Jewish Ulster in a sea of potentially hostile Arabism.'

"Storrs’ analogy was no accident. Ireland was where the English invented the tactic of divide and conquer, and where the devastating effectiveness of using foreign settlers to drive a wedge between the colonial rulers and the colonized made it a template for worldwide imperial rule."
