I'd forgotten about this-Obama denied a US Visa to an Israeli politician whose views he didn't like. And those were domestic Israeli views.
"...We don’t recall, moreover, Mrs. Pelosi, say, or Mr. Schumer or Ms. Harris objecting when the Obama administration banned a member of Israel’s Knesset from coming here. That happened as recently as 2012. The spurned visitor was Michael Ben Ari, who was given but scant explanation by the United States. Haaretz reported that he believes it was his former membership in Kach, a right-wing party.
Quote:Kach is a hard-line Israeli militant group that advocates for the expulsion of Arabs from the biblical lands of Israel. The U.S. State Department listed it as a terrorist organization in 1994. Kach, as well as the splinter group Kahane Chai, condones violence as a viable method for establishing a religiously homogenous state. The group has not staged a large terrorist attack since 1994, although people affiliated with the groups have been arrested for “low-level attacks” since 2000, according to the State Department’s 2006 Country Report. In 2006 a U.S. Federal Court upheld that Kach was rightly listed as a terrorist organization in an appeal.
Funny that your article kind of glossed over the whole "terrorist organization" part.
So it's even more of a direct comparison to Tlaib then huh?
Just so there is no confusion, Yes I am claiming that the Democratic Congresswoman Tlaib has ties to organizations that support terrorism. She's been photographed multiple times with terrorism supporters and was planning to meet with organizations on this failed trip with terrorism ties.
Quote:Last week, Ilhan Omar offered up further confirmation that she is, in fact, an anti-Semitic garbage person with an extensive thread bashing Israel for not falling for her and Rashida Tlaib’s shamelessly anti-Semitic political stunt. Her thread was full of historical revisionism, terrorism apologetics, and, of course, lies.
Here, the Israel Advocacy Movement — which focuses on fighting back against “British hostility to Israel” — debunks more of Omar’s lies in further detail:
