President
Trump has been unarguably the most pro-Jewish, pro-Israel President
we’ve ever had, surpassing George Washington, John Adams, Abraham
Lincoln and Harry Truman. His stand against Iran (vociferous enemy of
Israel), finally moving the US embassy to Jerusalem, cutting funds to
the PA and closing the PLO office in Washington, his donations to
Jewish causes, and developing housing for Russian-Jewish immigrants
in Brooklyn are just some of the points, but many non-Orthodox
American Jews are calling him antisemitic. It is primarily the
Democrat Jews who appear antisemitic when they continue to support
their party whose members explicitly express their hatred of Israel
and Jews worldwide. It may be that their desire to distance
themselves from their heritage in eastern Europe and Israel has
rendered them irrational, and psychological
projection has them denying their own impulses as they attribute
them to others – specifically to President Trump.
Antisemitism in Congress: Rashida Tlaib
Most recently, President Trump spoke out against the antisemitism
spewed by Muslim Congresswomen Rashida Tlaib and Ilhan Omar, and was
himself accused of bias. It is time to review the backgrounds of both
women who are recognized as Islamic extremists and antisemites by
such as Senator Lindsey Graham, Speaker Newt Gingrich, media
personalities Mark Thiessen and Rush Limbaugh, as well as by Imam
Tawhidi, who added Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez to the
lot.
- October 2015, Rashida Tlaib joined and praised activists who
support terrorist Rasmeah Odeh, who is guilty of the deadly 1969
bombing in Jerusalem.
- December 2017, Tlaib shared a Facebook post with Linda
Sarsour in support of 17-yr-old Palestinian Ahed Tamimi, who
assaulted an IDF soldier and promotes stabbings and suicide
bombings.
- February 2018, Tlaib joined the Facebook group, Palestinian
American Congress, which demonizes Jews and raised funds for her
campaign. She denied both the Holocaust and the Jewish historical
claim to Israel.
Joining Congress
- August 2018, for
her victory speech, Tlaib wrapped herself in a Palestinian flag
and promised to “fight against every racist and oppressive
structure that needs to be dismantled,” later telling the UK’s
Channel 4 News that she would vote against US military aid to
Israel. Despite her own foreign garb, she accused Jewish Americans
of dual loyalty and has since established a record of Jew-hatred and
an affinity for radical Islam.
- January 3, 2019, in a MoveOn.org reception, Tlaib warned that
the President’s days were numbered, and she’d “impeach the
motherfu**er.” She took her oath
on the Koran, which is the antithesis of our Bible and
Constitution, and affixed a sticker “Palestine” to replace
Israel on her wall map.
- A guest at Tlaib’s swearing-in ceremony and private dinner
was Abbas Hamideh, who equates Zionism with Nazism, and who voiced
his support for Hassan Nasrallah, violent murderer of an Israeli Jew
and his 4-year-old daughter.
Antisemitism in public policy: supporting BDS and
sympathizing with murderers
- During the week of January 2019, Tlaib condemned her
congressional colleagues who did not support BDS against Israel.
- March 2019, Tlaib posed with a Palestinian activist who had
mourned the death of a Hamas murderer of a rabbi in Israel.
- August 2019, Tlaib compared Israel to apartheid South Africa
and Nazi Germany, and co-sponsored a resolution to support the BDS
movement. She consistently shows herself to be an enemy of our ally
Israel and the Jewish people.
Exactly why Israel denied her a visa
- Most recently, Tlaib shunned a bipartisan delegation to
Israel in order to schedule her own trip to be led by the
anti-Israel nongovernmental organization Miftah, where she could
agitate for the anti-Israel boycott and use her disinvitation as an
accusation against the Jewish state.
- Claiming racism, oppression and injustice, Tlaib used the
event of her entry rejection into Israel to enhance her victimhood,
and a way of showing Gaza’s inhumane conditions. However, videos
of interviews of her family show a healthy grandmother,
free-standing home, and plentiful grounds with outdoor furniture on
a lovely summer night.
- Tlaib, Omar, AOC and Rep Prammila Jayapal co-sponsored a bill
that accuses the Jewish state of torturing
non-Jewish children; the bill was re-introduced by Rep. Beth
McCollum.
Antisemitism in Congress: Ilhan Omar
Ilhan Omar claimed to love America but shows her disdain for our
country at every turn with a decided detestation for Israel and the
Jews. She called herself the President’s “biggest nemesis”;
said of the terrorist attacks on 9/11, “some people did something”;
and wants our greatest ally, Israel, wiped off the face of the earth.
The following are examples of her words and deeds:
- In November 2012, Omar called Israel an apartheid regime that
“hypnotized the world” in order to conceal its “evil doings.”
- In 2013, Omar said on PBS that she took a college course in
terrorism, saying that the professor spoke with pride (his shoulders
raised in intensity) about Al Qaeda and Hezbollah, but not when we
say America.
- During 2013-15, Omar, then a member of the Minneapolis City
Council, acknowledged her friendship with Al-Shabab, a Somali jihad
terror group.
- Omar often characterized Israel as the “Jewish ISIS,’ on
Arab-American television, comparing members of Hamas to Holocaust
victims.
Excusing terrorist acts by throwing off on
America and the world
- Following the 2013 terrorist bombing that killed ~70 people
in a Kenyan shopping mall, Omar blamed the act on a reaction to
American injustices, and how the world contributed to Islamic
radicalization.
- After her election to the Minnesota House of Representatives,
November 2016, Omar wrote a judge for leniency in the sentencing of
nine Somali-born men found guilty of attempting to join ISIS,
blaming their desire for violence on alienation.
- In 2016, Omar wanted the University of Minnesota to divest
its Israel bonds, and in 2017, she opposed a bill designed to
counter economic boycotts against Israel, likening Israel to
apartheid South Africa.
- In 2017, Omar was one of two Minnesota House members (out of
129) to vote against a bill that would allow life-insurance
companies to deny payments to beneficiaries of suicide terrorists,
and one of four to oppose legislation to make it a felony for
parents to subject their daughters to female genital mutilation
(FGM).
Antisemitism at a new level in Congress
- After only five days of winning her congressional seat in
2018, Omar worked to institute BDS to financially cripple the state
of Israel.
- In February 2019, Omar tweeted that pro-Israel lobby AIPAC
was guilty of paying politicians to favor Israel: “It’s all
about the Benjamins, baby.”
- March 2019, Omar’s disdain for Israel won praise from Ku
Klux Klan Grand Wizard David Duke.
- March 2019, Omar was keynote speaker for an Hamas-linked CAIR
benefit event, along with Hassan Shibley, who will not call out
Hezbollah and Hamas as terrorist organizations.
- April 2019, Omar called for the release of a senior Muslim
Brotherhood member detained in Egypt.
- July 2019, Omar, Tlaib and John Lewis co-sponsored House
Resolution HR496 for BDS, comparing Israel to apartheid South Africa
and Nazi Germany.
Why do Democrat Jews support antisemitism and
antisemites in Congress?
There is no question that both Omar and
Tlaib are antisemites who seek to destroy Israel and endanger Jews
worldwide, and that the Democrat Jews who support those policies are
collaborators. Those who speak ill of President Trump and PM
Netanyahu and side with the Marxist-Islamic ideology emanating from
the Democrat party, who compare the southern-border invaders to the
Holocaust’s Jewish refugees, and who failed to attend and celebrate
the dedication of the US embassy in Jerusalem, Israel’s capital,
cannot be judged otherwise. Yes, President Trump’s honesty may
sting, but it is nevertheless honesty.
According to Jewish law, the Democrat Jews are still Jews, but the betrayal of their own brethren and heritage confirm that they are not in consonance with the laws and morality of Judaism – their hearts are elsewhere.
