SANITY: Israel Denies Entry to Radical Muslim Congresswomen Ilhan Omar and Rashida Tlaib

Reps. Ilhan Omar (D-MN) and Rashida Tlaib (D-MI), two members of “the Squad” of freshmen minority socialist Congresswomen, are being denied entry into the state of Israel following their history of making incendiary comments against Israel and supporting policies to harm the Jewish state.

The fake news media is attributing this decision to President Donald Trump, who has put the focus on the shameful record of these legislators despite being frequently called racist and sexist for doing so.

Deputy Foreign Minister Tzipi Hotovely officially announced the decision that Tlaib and Omar would be banned from entering the state of Israel earlier today.

“Israel has decided — we won’t enable the members of Congress to enter the country,” she told the Kan public broadcaster.

“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,” she added.

Liberals are enraged by the decision, as it delegitimizes the radical socialist views of Omar and Tlaib, the first two Muslim women ever elected to the U.S. Congress.

However, Tlaib and Omar have nobody to blame but themselves for the decision made by the administration of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. They have made offensive comments about Israel and supported policies against the Jewish state since before they were even elected last year.

Omar infamously wrote, “It’s all about the Benjamins baby,” in reference to AIPAC on her Twitter account, inferring that the Jewish lobby was buying off the support of Congress. She also made a statement questioning whether Jewish people could be loyal Americans.

“I want to talk about the political influence in this country that says it is OK for people to push for allegiance to a foreign country,” Omar said during a town hall in March.

Omar and Tlaib are also huge proponents of the boycott, divestment and sanctions (BDS) movement against the state of Israel. Tlaib, whose parents were Palestinian refugees, is a particularly outspoken advocate of BDS.

“I personally support the BDS movement,” Tlaib said before she was elected into office. “I want us to see that segregation and how that has really harmed us being able to achieve real peace in that region.”

Tlaib once rejected the opportunity to visit Israel when it was politically convenient for her to do so, choosing instead to visit the West Bank to promote the cause of Palestine. Now, she is acting as if it is a massive dishonor to be denied a visit to the country whose government she opposes so vehemently.

With the state of Israel rejecting the entry of Omar and Tlaib, it makes it clear that those socialist Congresswomen are doing damage to U.S. diplomacy while President Trump is bringing nations closer together.
