So maybe Elizabeth Warren should show up dressed in traditional Native American outfit, like for a war dance.

Since we are doing this costume thing which is not at all attention seeking or distracting.

dude, if she was a pro-Israel politician, my reaction would have been exactly the same. Keep your personal opinion to yourself and stop working for other country when you are an American politician. My tax dollars won't support a politician who works for a foreign country/government, period.

Go back to your (general term) own country and support your own people, then you would be a hero.
Go back and re-read the post I originally responded to.

Or she is pretending to be. Imagine the exposure to confidential material and US secrets she will have. It would not be the first time a Muslim has integrated into society pretending to be something they are not. Not necessarily true of her, but I remain suspicious.

Read the book “Islam and the future of tolerance” by Sam Harris. Basically the message is that besides a small minority of Muslims worldwide, most are very anti western values.

I would not put Sam Harris as a credible scholar on Middle Eastern studies. He's just a polemicist and an Islamophobe who uses fancier words than Pam Geller and Frank Gaffney.

Better than giving Iran 1.7 Billion, 600 Million yearly to the Palestinians, both groups hate us which no amount of money will change.
