And I didn't single out Israel. Didn't even mention it in my post.
For once, we agree.

House reps should focus solely on the conditions of their districts. Involvement with other governments should be limited to senators.

True, you didn’t. That statement wasn’t necessary calling you out, but it was calling out the many people on this board that seem to always single out Israel.

BTW, that was a very biased news report, totally ignoring the law that was keeping them out, and blaming it all on Trump.
It was a CBS report. 'Nuff said.

I wouldn't call you a good person, or anyone who supports Omar or Tlaib. Nor do I want anything to do with any of you, but unfortunately we share a country. A country you guys are working OT to destroy.

She was given permission in order to visit her 90 year old grandma.

He banned legal immigration from several Muslim countries. It appears that he pulled Netanyahu’s strings on this, big mistake banning US congresswomen.

That is deflection. And honestly says a lot about you. You literally just posted that you would be glad an elderly dying woman would be denied access to her granddaughter because you don’t like the granddaughters politics. I am not the one exemplifying exactly what is wrong with this country.

And Omar wasn't protesting Israel during her diatribe. She was protesting Jewish financial influence, using the worst and oldest antisemitic tropes in the book. And yet, the Dems raced to her defense.

Jews are indeed waking up. Not all of them, of course. But in swing states where the margin is close, it could make a difference.
According to Netanyahu they were suddenly banned because of their support for the BDS movement.

It shows the Israeli population that BiBi is a tool of a nut.

I can see the ads now. Bibi a weakling, afraid of a couple of women, they just go on and on.

Countries that Obama identified as security risks, given their terrorist ties and their poor vetting process. There was no ban on immigrants from most Muslim countries.

And they weren't normal Congresswomen. These are two blatant antisemites who support the efforts of those who want to destroy Israel, and who were planning to meet with anti-Isrsel progandists. Israel is under no obligation to assist in its own destruction.
