You know who you are but still unless they were expected to talk shit and stir up trouble (which I would not rule out by any means) Israel should have let them in and treated them with respect.

OldBrownsFan Posted August 15, 2019 Report Share Posted August 15, 2019 Israel has some valid reasons for not allowing the Muslim congresswomen into their country. Even if Netanyahu did this as a favor to Trump it only shows the good relationship we have with Israel after the Obama years where Israel, our best friend and ally in the middle east was not treated so well. "Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, explaining the decision at length on his office's Twitter account, said that Tlaib and Omar's itinerary "revealed that they planned a visit whose sole objective is to strengthen the boycott against us and deny Israel's legitimacy." Netanyahu said their travel plans referred to a trip to "Palestine," not Israel, and the congresswomen were not interested in meeting with Israeli officials. He went on to note that the Palestinian organization that planned the visit, MIFTAH, supports the boycott movement, and that people associated with the group have supported terror against Israel in the past. He said Israel welcomes critics with the exception of those who support boycotts of the Jewish State. The decision itself was made by Interior Minister Arye Deri and announced earlier Thursday by deputy foreign minister Tzipi Hotovely, despite prior assurances that the congresswomen would be allowed in. "Israel has decided — we won’t enable the members of Congress to enter the country,” Hotovely told public broadcaster Kan. "We won’t allow those who deny our right to exist in this world to enter Israel. In principle, this is a very justified decision." Omar and Tlaib were among 17 members of Congress who voted against a resolution condemning the Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions (BDS) movement in July. This was after Omar introduced a resolution of her own that encouraged the use of boycotts as a political tool, and told Al-Monitor that "it is an opportunity for us to explain why it is we support a nonviolent movement, which is the BDS movement." https://www.foxnews.com/politics/israel-may-bar-omar-tlaib-from-entering-country-for-support-of-bds-movement 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
