As one of the first orders of business after the House of Representatives selects a new Speaker and additional military and humanitarian aid is approved for Israel, the House should at minimum vote to censure Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-Mich.) and take away her committee assignments.
Rep. Tlaib, the first Palestinian-American sworn into Congress, reacted to the Hamas terrorists’ horrific massacre and abduction of Israeli civilians by condemning Israel’s “occupation” and “apartheid” policies. Not one word of condemnation for the atrocities the terrorists committed after invading Israel and rampaging through the streets and into Israeli homes, slaughtering men, women, and children at random and kidnapping others. To the contrary, Rep. Tlaid tried to characterize Hamas’s rampant war crimes and crimes against humanity as “resistance.”
Even Rep. Tlaib’s fellow left-wing Squad members Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.) and Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) saw fit to explicitly condemn Hamas, although they called for an immediate ceasefire.
Tlaib called for “lifting the blockade, ending the occupation, and dismantling the apartheid system that creates the suffocating, dehumanizing conditions that can lead to resistance.” She added, “The failure to recognize the violent reality of living under siege, occupation, and apartheid makes no one safer. As long as our country provides billions in unconditional funding to support the apartheid government, this heartbreaking cycle of violence will continue.”
Rep. Tlaib is regurgitating all the blatant lies that Palestinian propagandists and their enablers constantly spew against Israel. She has been spinning the same false narrative of Palestinian victimhood as a member of Congress since she was sworn into the House of Representatives using a Quran. For example, back in May, Rep. Tlaib tweeted: “The apartheid state of Israel was born out of violence and the ethnic cleansing of Palestinians. 75 years later, the Nakba [catastrophe] continues to this day.”
The truth is that violence has been directed at Jews by neighboring Arab states and by Arabs (who did not then identify themselves as “Palestinians”) living in what was to become the Jewish state of Israel before and after Israel declared its independence. The fact that millions of descendants of the Arabs residing within the original boundaries of Israel in 1948 are Israeli citizens today belies the myth of ethnic cleansing and apartheid supposedly imposed by the Israeli “occupation.” There was real ethnic cleansing in the Middle East in 1948 and years thereafter, however, when Arab states expelled Jews from their lands in those countries where their ancestors had lived for centuries.
The Palestinian terrorists’ enablers, including Rep. Tlaib, try to rationalize Hamas’s savage actions as if they were last-ditch efforts when all else failed to free the Palestinian people from the yoke of so-called Israeli “occupation.”
Meanwhile, at the United Nations, Secretary General Antonio Guterres said that the violence grew out of “a 56-year long occupation and no political end in sight.”
Not true. The massacres committed by Hamas and other Islamist terrorist groups have arisen from their single-minded determination to eliminate the Jewish state of Israel from the face of the earth. As Robert Spencer, an expert on jihad and Islamic ideology, wrote in his article for Frontpage Magazine, the barbaric attacks against Israel are “happening not because of al-Aqsa, or because of any ‘occupation,’ since the ‘occupation’ is a propaganda fiction anyway. It’s happening because of the Islamic imperative to fight Jews.”
A Hamas official confirmed the true sinister motive underlying Hamas’s slaughter of Jews. Hamas MP and member of Board of Trustees of the International Union of Muslim Scholars, Marwan Abu Ras, said back in 2021 that “massacring this enemy is a divine order. [The Quran says:] ‘So strike them upon the neck and strike from them every fingertip.’ Striking the necks of this enemy is a duty according to the shari’a. Anyone who can massacre this enemy should not neglect this duty, because this enemy is the enemy of the Islamic nation [in its entirety].”
The Hamas MP added that the fight against the “enemy” is not just for the Palestinians. He said that “the Islamic nation must reinforce us, so that we can emerge victorious and liberate [the land], that belongs to the Islamic nation and not to us alone. Palestine does not belong to the Palestinians alone. Rather, Palestine is an Islamic waqf land. The entire Islamic nation will be held to account over this issue on the Day of Judgment.”
Israel must say “never again” and take all military actions necessary to make sure that Hamas and its like-minded Palestinian terrorist groups are stricken in their hearts and destroyed root and branch.
Greg says
Nothing will change until Jews denounce the Democ-rat political party, the “woke” scum for which Tlaib and her Jew-hating “squad” speak. So long as Democ-rats dictate American foreign policy, the gutter will be the world’s destination. Dirty Depends in Joe Bite-Me’s basement; that’s a picture of the Democ-rat utopia.
Intrepid says
What a surprise. The world’s ugliest Fakestinian, Trashida Tlaib, denounces Israel If she cares about the savages so much perhaps she should move to Gaza.
Angel Jacob says
The evil squad belongs in prison for treason. All of that islamic filth needs to be removed from the US government.
Snuffy Carter says
why is Tlaib permitted to have a large Palestinian flag posted right by the front door of her office?
why doesn’t some sane member of Congress take this flag down, rip it up, and then set it on fire?
Gina says
Beginning in the morning of Oct 7, 2023:
The Islamic Fascist Republic of Iran’s backed “Palestinian” terror organization Hamas ‘Gaza regime’ in coordination with Islamic Jihad and other terror “socialist” groups – PFLP, DFLP,
fires (Oct 7-9) over 5,000 rocket attacks from the Gaza Strip over towns across Israel, many fell on the towns – wounding several, in Ashdod, Ashkelon and in the Jerusalem area on Oct 9; murdering two in Eshkol on Oct 10 –
to the Islamic cry of Allah u Akbar, the infiltration of about a 1,500 armed terrorists into Israeli towns and villages, roaming on vehicles randomly shooting at people, at babies, at the elderly, going from house to house, massacring hundreds (at times, entire families,”snatching children out of their beds,” (2, 3 & 5 years old); kidnapping Jews, including women and children – entire families, dragging them (some barefooted) over to Gaza; even the disabled (- such as a Holocaust survivor), many to be lynched and as trophies – torching houses and vehicles with people inside, parading with dead, wounded, hostages; a massacre such that of youngsters on a nature party near Kibbutz Re’im (260), “the terrorists were walking around and lynching anyone they found.”
A note found near torched vehicles showed Islamic religious text ‘inspiring’ to the violence. At the Rave Massacre asides from weapons, copies of the Koran were found. Arabic speaking journalist Ohad Hemo: Hamas that I spoke with, they have no problem with half of Gaza to be wiped out.
Images — of little girls and elderly people held by Hamas, bloodied women, parading of injured and dead and Palestinians beating them, a girl- the militants desecrated and paraded her body on the back of a truck — shocked the world. It brought back ISIS style barbarity.
A father who tried to shield his two children with his body was “murdered with an ax in front of his children.” “There have been reports of sexual assault and torture.” raped next to dead bodies before being murdered; raping girls and then parading them as they bleed; hooting girls in the legs so that they can’t run; grandmother burned alive at her home; one family, the barbarians called: “Your girl is in our hands, we will rape and kill her.” A child being captured by Hamas was seen being abused by ‘ordinary’ Gazans (Arab racism en masse).
AT says
When what happened in Israel starts to happen in the US thanks to the millions of invaders already here and on the way, the federal government, police and military WILL protect these murderers and arrest or shoot Americans defending themselves. The police protected Antifa/BLM as they continue to attack innocent citizens and burn down cities. They will protect invaders as well.
I guarantee this will happen 100%. Be ready….
Chief Mac says
The feral Islamofascists have been committing genocide for 1,400 years now. It has nothing to do with Jews or Israel. Instead it has to do with the supremacist, genocidal cult of Islamofascism
The Eve of Battle says
Yes, Chief Mac, you have thrown a spotlight on the very ROOT of Hamas’ (and the Pali’s) motivation … to paraphrase – “it’s the religion, stupid”. The adherents of the “religion of peace” haven’t acted differently in 1,400 years and nothing will change that behavior until Islam and its holy book are ASHES!
You’ve hit the nail on the head.
SPURWING PLOVER says
This is why we want a Border Fence no matter what we get from t he Domoc-Rats
BorderKellie says
If we want to stop the normalizing of Gaza propagandists, we *must* stop using their bastardization of the language. The only way “Palestine” ever existed was as Roman name for the region. It was never and still isn’t a sovereign country. The Gazan Arabs who adopted the name, “Palestinian,” called themselves Jordanians or even simply Arabs prior to the 1960’s war in which Israel stood alone against several Muslim countries and captured territory the terrorists were living in to that point, which they now decry as “occupation.” The truth is they might still hold the contested regions if they’d minded their own business instead of their neighbor’s. We must stop referring to the Arabs as “Palestinians” if we ever hope to turn the wheel back toward truth.
The Eve of Battle says
Spot-on and thank you for posting this information!
JC Davis says
T-Labia is all for chopping off the heads of innocent babies laying in their cribs while terrorist are raping and murdering it’s parents. She should be expelled from congress.
ed says
A typical islamic response
Remember in islam being raped is the fault of the victim and punishable by stoning
Mark Bradley says
Rashida Tlaib is just another hater from the Obama’s Spigot.
LuzMaria Rodriguez says
The enemy is inside the green zone and too many do not understand.
They even rationalize for the butchery.
It is stunning.
RS says
Just imagine supporting the beheadings and slaughter of babies that has happened in Israel. Will Americans and our children be victims next because of our borders and the invasion? It seems very likely now with the lawlessness and lack of a strong President and Congress.
Annie45 says
Oinker Trashida Tlaib’s snorting lies are incredible. As Mr. Klein points
out, the descendants of Arabs originally inhabiting land – which was to
become the state of Israel – are full Israeli citizens, living under a most
definitely non-apartheid regime. Their Arab ancestors decided to stay
put in 1948 instead of fleeing like the other Arabs – who were also
invited and welcomed by the Jews to remain.
And why did the majority of Arabs – later to be known as “Palestinians” –
flee? Because they were aware that 5 Arab nations would be ganging
up on the infant nation of Israel to destroy it and when that happened,
the Arabs (future Palestinians) could saunter back to their shanty towns
in what was now Israel.
Sure enough – May 14 Israel declares its independence and the very
next day, the armies of Egypt – Syria- Iraq – Lebanon – Jordan unite to
annihilate her. Resulting in the tiny Jewish champion clobbering their
collective Muslim butts. And in the ensuing 75 years since, all the
Arab nations – so hot to destroy Israel for their fellow ‘displaced’ Arabs –
have refused to take the Palestinian refugees in.
Those are the truths that Trashida Tlaib will never reveal. Muslim nations –
along with individuals such as her – will impose their monstrous hoax of
Palestinian oppression upon their world to gain support in bringing down
Israel. Because the real reason for such vicious Jew hatred is in their
Koran.
Fred A. says
Just think what the Congress will look like in another 20 to 30 years. Just imagine 435 members of the House and 100 members of the Senate made up of mostly people from Asia, Africa, South America, and Mexico. Add in all the religious bias as well. Of course, it is possible the United States will cease to exist at all, if there is a nuclear war.
In the meantime, President Biden is doing his best to make that happen even sooner.
Charles says
A hypothetical but serious question that needs to be answered and understood by all the parties concerned, what would have transpired had the Palestinians/ Muslims taken control of the land of Israel to Jewish and non Moslem people in the country now called Israel !
Currently, the Moslems, Christians, non-believers have the freedom to practice whatever they choose !
Will the Moslem Palestinians be this tolerant ! I think not !
