Bibi smarter than Deficit Don...

http://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2019/aug/16/israel-to-allow-entry-to-rashida-tlaib-for-humanitarian-visit

Rashida has no interest in seeing family

Sad

She has no interest in being a pawn...

Kiidcarter8 not smart enough to do so, but it’s fair to ask why she wrote a letter to Israel agreeing to the restrictions on her visit only to cite those restrictions now as reason to not go after they agreed.

But whatever the validity of her protest, she didn’t create this condition to start with.  And it’s incredibly disingenuous to say “aw now she doesn’t love her grandma” when you had no objection to Trump working to deny her ability to visit her grandma to begin with.

Also worth saying that we have no idea how Tlaib ultimately feels about her canceling this trip.  It should be obvious that some elected officials see their service as more important than and not tied to their own personal interests.  Understandably that’s a concept that a Trump lover would have trouble with.

In this one, Kid is promoting the tweet of a twit who blames the protesters for the ICE agent's willfully running them down.

Kid will no doubt deny he is promoting it.

He is full of shit, should he do so.

Advice to kids -

Go out and protest if you like - but beeeeeee careful.

Yeah, so?

Here’s the headline you can plainly see,

“For Black teens were fundraising for their football team then a white woman held them at gunpoint.”

A pawn? She is an anti-Semite favoring the destruction of Israel.
She could not accept a humanitarian gesture to   visit her grandmother which would deny her raison
d’ etre.

Per the rules of a political forum, please provide a direct quote from Tlaib in which she calls for the destruction of Israel.

Also, provide a quote demonstrating that she is anti-Semitic, and not, say, anti Right Wing government in Israel.

I would say two things. First of all, there was an invitation by the bipartisan delegation, and we have had here last week, basically 70 members of Congress from both parties headed by both majority and minority leader, and it would have been much better for them to come then. They refused.

And not only that, they have decided on their own accord to actually ignore Israel, to go only to the Palestinian side. They are sponsored by an organization, Palestinian one, which is called MIFTAH which supports terrorism. And I think that by the latest analysis, the reason for this visit was just a clear provocation and really to harm and hurt Israeli interests
