JERUSALEM — Israel on Thursday barred the entry of two American Democratic congresswomen who had planned to visit the West Bank, hours after President Trump had urged the country to block them. The two congresswomen, Representatives Rashida Tlaib of Michigan and Ilhan Omar of Minnesota, both freshmen, are the first two Muslim women elected to Congress. Both are outspoken adversaries of Mr. Trump and have been vocal in their support of the Palestinians and the boycott-Israel movement.

Thank you, Mr. President! Rashida Tlaib and Ilhan Omar are Muslims. They've made it quite clear that hate Israel and Jewish people. As practicing Muslims, they are polar opposites of Jews. They are the embodiment of Israel's enemies.
They will be safer in the U.S. than hanging out on the West Bank.
President Trump's tweets are quoted in this article and I believe he's 100% accurate in what he said.
edited to add: Thanks go to Mr. Netanyahu as well for banning Tlaib and Omar.

The only people who are happy with this post mainly to religious BBS like this one and to Facebook. The rest of the internet is aflame with rage over it. Israel really is all alone in the world.

They really are. There are people, in ones and twos and small groups, that support Israel - look at us, and others like us. The power and authority we have to help Israel comes through prayer; we at least have that. |

I find it intresting that after they were blocked from making the offical visit that was originally planned, Talib tried to make a fuss about how this would keep her from being able to visit her elderly Grandmother. So Israel granted her a visa on humanitarian grounds to visit her family. She refused because the offer was "humiliating and racist". Rashida Tlaib Blasts ‘Racist’ Israel, Won’t Accept Country’s Offer to Visit Tlaib had asked Israel to let her visit her family in the West Bank, where her grandmother, who is in her 90s, lives. “This could be my last opportunity to see her,” Tlaib wrote, according to CNN. Israel responded that it would permit Tlaib to visit on humanitarian grounds. She declined, writing on Twitter it would be “humiliating.” www.christianheadlines.com/contributors/michael-foust/u-s-rep-rashida-tlaib-blasts-racist-israel-won-t-accept-country-s-offer-to-visit.html |

She certainly doesn't know how to use the words "racist" and "racism" correctly. What a bogeyman those terms have become.  Her response here ^^^ is an example of that old Shakespeare line, "Methinks the lady doth protest too much." I think her response only serves to prove she had no good intentions of going to Israel in the first place. |
