This is what happens when you let in and bring in large numbers of people who have very, very different points of view, some Islamic extremist, and I’d bet most hate Jews and Israel. And these people not only refuse to assimilate, but, demand that America (and other Western nations) change to accommodate them
Opinion: Why Palestinian Americans believe Rep. Rashida Tlaib spoke the truth
“I can’t believe I have to say this,” Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-Mich.) said during the debate over the motion to censure her in Congress this week, “but Palestinian people are not disposable. We are human beings just like anyone else.”
Yes, and they voted in a US, UN, and EU designated terrorist group to run Gaza, who then ended all elections, and Palestinians did nothing. They did nothing when Hamas was putting weapons in and under hospitals, schools, and mosques. Germans were people too, as were the Japanese. But, they chose to start a war, and Germans went along with the Nazis. Not all, but, enough. Germans and Japanese changed: Palestinians haven’t in 60+ years
The vote passed Tuesday in the House 234-188. Tlaib powerfully captured the extent to which Palestinians have been silenced and dehumanized in institutions across the United States, even as they are killed and injured thousands of miles away. Indeed, the dehumanization here mirrors the physical destruction in Gaza and the West Bank — and helps to sustain it.
And the House of Representatives saw this — of all times — as the ideal occasion on which to censure the only Palestinian American member of Congress for having expressed the rights and humanity of her battered but still steadfast people.
Yes, the one who has expressed Jew hatred, Israel hatred, and support for Islamic terrorist groups many times. Shove your race card where the sun don’t shine.
Among the reasons cited for censuring Tlaib was a video she shared on social media that included the slogan “from the river to the sea.” The resolution claims this was a “genocidal call.” In fact, variations of the phrase have been used by different parties, including, but not only, Hamas. In Israel’s Likud Party 1977 platform, for example, it was used to express uniquely Israeli sovereignty over all of historical Palestine, a theme also echoed in Israel’s 2018 Jewish Nation-State Law. In today’s context, for Palestinians and others opposing Israel’s system of apartheid, however, the phrase expresses a vision of freedom and equality for all.
There’s some gaslighting. These people will never ask the questions “if Palestinians run the area from the river to the sea will the Jews be allowed to stay? Will they share power?” Hamas says it means kicking all Jews out, turning the area into an Islamic caliphate, and killing the Jews.
Hundreds of thousands of ordinary Americans protesting and demonstrating across the country have expressed their affirmation of our common humanity in ways that our institutions and government somehow seem to find impossible. Above all, young people and especially students on campuses — who have bravely shrugged off an orchestrated campaign of intimidation and doxxing intended to silence them — have rallied to the cause of Palestine, which they now recognize is also the cause of justice.
I, like many other Palestinians, have long been ready to embrace our Jewish cousins on these principles, in the name of dismantling apartheid and working toward a democratic and secular state of equal citizens — and in the name of our common humanity, which alone can save us in the end.
Saree Makdisi is a professor of English and comparative literature at UCLA.
Yes, and we’ve seen the calls for the destruction of Israel and Jew hatred, up to killing Jews. We’ve seen them abused and intimidated. Where was Makdisi when Palestinians and other students were attacking Jews at UCLA? Few Palestinians are actually ready to embrace Jews. He also failed to mention that Hamas started this. Why is it that no Arab nation will take in Palestinians? I wish I could find that opinion piece again, but, ask Jordan what happened when they allowed them in decades ago. Well, they started causing all sorts of issues, started having their own military, tried to kill off the Jordanian leaders, and started a civil war. Does the phrase “Black September” mean anything? They also caused a lot problems in Egypt, hence why they do not want them.
And why people like Tlaib should go, along with the others

This is what the Jews know, in their hearts and souls, nailed to their spines in a way few others can understand: they need Israel as an explicitly Jewish state, because we good Christians showed them that they can never truly depend on other people for their safety, security, and very lives.
There needs to be a Palestinian nation, i.e., the “Two State Solution”.
One could say the same thing about the United states. But the Democrats tried doing that once before and got the shit kicked out of them. Although that was about race and slavery and how they wanted to keep their negroes on the plantation. But couldn’t that be said about today also? The Democrats couldn’t hold power if they didn’t have blacks and Hispanics trapped in ghettos and barrios in the big cities run by leftist Democrats.
Well we won’t have to worry about that after they steal the next election. I imagine the syphilitic old genocide Joe spending the entire campaign in his basement once again an emerging the day after the election to thank his constituents for the 107 million votes. LOL.
Yes, your ancestors of the Confederacy tried to destroy America but the great Abraham Lincoln stopped you.
Of course, this has nothing to do with Israel and the Palestinians, but we understand why you want to change the subject and whine about the Civil War.
We also understand the current Republican plan to end America as we know it. America will take a horseshoe shaped set of states… California up and around the Canadian border, New England, NY, NJ, DC, south to include NC. The south, midwest, mountain west and Alaska becomes the NuConfederate States of America (The NCSA). Make Atlanta your national capital? You can expel all your undesirables – negroes, Muslims, Hispanics, LGBTQs.
Adolf Drumpf,Drumpf Jr or Tucker can be your 1st President. Voting will be a thing of the past, since Republicans in Georgia, Arizona, Wisconsin, Michigan, Pennsylvania have a hard time running trouble-free elections.
You are one miserable, ignorant, worthless son of a bitch.
Good debate! You suck donkey dick!
CarolAnn,
BTW, how many times do you think the condom-eschewing, mushroom-dicked, sex-worker banging Trump contracted an STD? Do you think he paid for any abortions, LOL?
Tertiary syphilis could explain his foot slapping walk and mental incoherence.
Do you approve of married men having unprotected sex with adult film actresses?
If only the Palestinians hadn’t rejected one when it was offered, in 2000.

The ‘tolerant’ Mr Teach: This is what happens when you let in and bring in large numbers of people who have very, very different points of view…
Only the MAGAt points of view are allowable in nuAmerica!! Any and all “vermin” must be exterminated!
Here’s who Mr Teach wants deported…
Representative Tlaib is “poisoning the blood of our country”.
Typical Rimjob gaslighting. Making up shit like a 12yr old retard.
You are correct in pointing that out. She’s also erasing our history, eliminating our culture, erasing our history, poisoning our youth, wasting our resources, an insulting all of our forefathers that came before us to build this great and beautiful Republic.
And I have no doubt she has only just begun. People like you Elwood are the same type of people that welcomed in the Nazis with open arms. You’re the same type of people who bowed and opened the gates for the Barbarians that sacked Rome. You’re of the same mindset as the communist who killed their parents and betrayed they’re friends in the name of the barbaric communist ideal. You and people like Rashida Harbi are people not to be trusted and are traitors to the United States of America.
Should have been one more comparison. Warsaw then and Warsaw now, but using the same photo. One facet of my bug out plan includes getting to Poland when the SHTF.
