White Americans have a stereotype of black people being criminals purely because they can’t acknowledge that it was actually white people that stole them from Africa in the first place."

The poster fits in with the quotas a lot of companies are trying to meet with the exception of african women, hardly a huge leap, certainly not your dumb comparisons. Doesnt fit in with the all white men are the enemy narrative does it

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said Israel is “open to critics and criticism,” except for those who advocate boycotts against it. He also stated “Congresswomen Tlaib and Omar are leading activists in promoting the legislation of boycotts against Israel in the American Congress…”. He said their itinerary “revealed that they planned a visit whose sole objective is to strengthen the boycott against us and deny Israel’s legitimacy.” Good for Israel! If anything the two abhorrent congresswomen should have visited with all sides of the controversy in order to get some education on what is going on. But that is too much to hope for from our top anti-Semitic congresswomen. I wonder if we can send these two elsewhere for, say, about a year?

Omar and Tlaib planned to tour the flashpoint site of the Temple Mount in the Old City of Jerusalem, as well as the West Bank. Their trip was planned by Miftah, a nonprofit organization led by a Palestinian lawmaker. American Jewish Congress President Jack Rosen said: “Congresswomen Tlaib and Omar are no friends of Israel. Had they shown a genuine desire to commit to open and honest dialogue, they could have better understood the true character of the Israeli people and the reality in which they live on a daily basis.” “But sadly this is not the case, and the Israeli government’s decision is the right one.” Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu stated “Israel’s law prohibits the entry of people who call and operate to boycott Israel, as is the case with other democracies that prevent the entry of people whose perception harms the country.” Is Israel not allow to be a sovereign nation? The two knucklehead US lawmakers are taking advantage of their prominent political position to support organizations that call for boycotts of Israel.

Tlaib has asked to be able to visit her elderly grandmother as it may be the last time she might see her, and the request had been granted. “I would like to request admittance to Israel in order to visit my relatives, and specifically my grandmother. This could be my last opportunity to see her. I will respect any restrictions and will not promote boycotts against Israel during my visit.” Finally... some adults in the room.
