What a pile of Tlaib

July 31, 2019 Sheila Stokes 2 Comments

Recently the House of Representatives voted on a non-binding resolution to condemn Boycott Divest and Sanction (BDS, or BS for short) against Israel. The motion passed 398-17. So who were the 17?

Earl Blumenauer (D-Oregon)

Andre Carson (D-Indiana)

Debbie Dingell (D-Michigan)

Jesus “Chuy” Garcia (D-Illinois)

Raul Grijalva (D-Arizona)

Pramila Jayapal (D-Washington)

Barbara Lee (D-California)

Thomas Massie (R-Kentucky)

Betty McCollum (D-Minnesota)

Gwen Moore (D-Wisconsin)

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-New York)

Ilhan Omar (D-Minnesota)

Chellie Pingree (D-Maine)

Mark Pocan (D-Wisconsin)

Bobby Rush (D-Illinois)

Rashida Tlaib (D-Michigan)

Bonnie Watson Coleman (D-New Jersey)

Sixteen of the 17 representatives who voted no were Demoncrats, one was Republican, Thomas Massie from Kentucky. WTH?? Four out of the five who voted present also were Democrats. The only non-Democrat who voted present was Rep. Justin Amash, an Independent.

Predictably Rashida Tlaib (Pal-Mich) had her underoos in a bunch.

“I stand before you the daughter of Palestinian immigrants,” said Tlaib on the House floor the morning of the tally. “Parents who experienced being stripped of their human rights, the right to freedom of travel, equal treatment. So I can’t stand by and watch this attack on our freedom of speech and the right to boycott the racist policies of the government and the state of Israel. I love our country’s freedom of speech, Madam Speaker. Dissent is how we nurture democracy.”

And

Earlier in the day, Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-Mich.) criticized the resolution, saying, “It sets a dangerous precedent because it attempts to delegitimize certain people’s political speech and to send a message that our government can and will take action against speech it doesn’t like”

However, Eliot Engel chair of the House Foreign Affairs committee seemed to disagree. As did Republican Representatives. That Ilan Omar is still on the Foreign Affairs committee is a disgrace. I guess San Fran Nan is scared to remove her.

During the 40-minute floor debate on the resolution, House Foreign Affairs Committee Chairman Eliot Engel (D-N.Y.) said the BDS movement “promotes a one-sided view of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict that seeks to marginalize Israel, that would deny the Jewish people the right of national self-determination.” He added, “Participating in an international commercial effort that undermines Israel’s legitimacy and scuttles the chances of a two-state solution isn’t the same as an individual exercising First Amendment rights.”

After the vote, Rep. Alex Mooney (R-WV) tweeted, “Displays of anti-Semitism have become too frequent in the past few months, even from members of this House of Representatives—and it is time that we stand united in support of Israel.”

Of course we know my opinion of the “two state solution”. That is already in place. It’s called Gaza, where rockets and fire balloons are launched into Israel.

But the flow of Tlaib doesn’t end there.

She compared the BDS movement to the American boycott of Nazi Germany.

“The right to boycott is deeply rooted in the fabric of our country,” she said. “What was the Boston Tea Party but a boycott? Where would we be now without the boycott led by the civil rights activists in the 1950s and 60s like the Montgomery bus boycott and the United Farm Workers Grape boycott?”

She then pivoted to the history of Americans boycotting foreign government, saying, “Americans boycotted Nazi Germany in response to dehumanization, imprisonment, and genocide of Jewish people.”

She claimed in May that “Palestinian Arabs living in the British Mandate prior to the establishment of the State of Israel “provided” a safe haven to Jews after the Holocaust.” Look up Hevron massacre 1929 if you are unsure why I’m angry about that particular statement.

“There’s always kind of a calming feeling when I think of the tragedy of the Holocaust,” Tlaib said, “that it was my ancestors, Palestinians, who lost their land and some lost their lives, their livelihood, their human dignity, their existence, in many ways, has been wiped out … in the name of trying to create a safe haven for Jews, post-Holocaust, post-tragedy and the horrific persecution of Jews across the world at that time. And I love the fact that it was my ancestors that provided that in many ways.”

It seems that the two anti-Semites, Omar (whom I don’t think is married to her brother this week, though she isn’t saying) and Tlaib are planning on visiting Israel.

I really like Sha’i ben-Tekoa’s solution. Let them enter Israel through the Hamass terror tunnels, they’ll feel right at home. He also has a great itinerary for them. Ripping good show with some American History on Thomas Jefferson.

But there are people that disagree. While they are not calling out the pile of Tlaib by name, their actions say she’s liar liar pants on fire.

Who are these people? Arabs. Specifically Arabs in other countries. It seems the Falestinians are beginning to get on everyone’s last nerve.

This may not have made headline news last week.

This is Saudi blogger Mohammed Said,

This man is an ARAB, and he is being treated this way by the Falestinians. I find this curious as well as appalling. But in the Arab world, it’s an eye for an eye. Literally. In Torah it means the value of an eye for an eye.

So in Riyadh

Who else besides the Saudi Arabs have had a bellyful of the Tlai Falestinians? Syrians.

In an exclusive interview, Syrian analyst Wael Ashaq explained that many people in Saudi Arabia despise how the Palestinian Authority is assisting the Assad regime: “They only care about what is good for them. They don’t care about the millions killed every day by the Assad regime. If we look at the issue historically, the Palestinians went everywhere in Syria, Lebanon and Jordan and created many problems and troubles. We as Syrians helped the Palestinians but when we have a problem with our dictator, they stand with this terrorist regime and help them politically as well as militarily. This is true for both Fatah and Hamas. They are both the same on this.”

On top of that, he added that many people in the Arab world are looking in order to build a strong relationship with Israel: “We want a good relationship with Israel because we know that Israel respects our right to be a free people and a liberated country. Israel is the only democratic state in our area. We don’t see any other free and democratic governments in the area. We are looking for a free Syria that will be just like Israel. The region has changed in favor of a new alliance. Any government has to make good relations with Israel if they want their country to be free and democratic and for their people to live with dignity and to have a good life. Therefore, we condemn Palestinian terrorist practices against Israeli civilians and those who support Israel.”

But wait! There’s more!

Mendi Safadi, who heads the Safadi Center for International Diplomacy, Research, Public Relations and Human Rights, added that many people in the Arab world are waking up and discovering not only how the Palestinian Authority and Hamas have abandoned the Syrian people but also have been taking hostile actions against Saudi Arabia. He noted that the Saudis are greatly disturbed with Hamas and the Islamic Jihad for building a relationship with Iran.

Safadi stressed that the Saudis view Iran to be their number one enemy for the Houthis, Iran’s proxy in Yemen, have fired rockets at Saudi Arabia. In addition, they view Iran’s nuclear program to be a major threat to the Saudi Kingdom and its regional sphere of influence. In light of this, many Saudis are greatly disturbed over the fact that many Palestinians don’t share their hostile perception of the Iranian regime and are actually working in order to have a good relationship with Iran.

According to Safadi, another factor that disturbs the Saudis is the popularity of the Muslim Brotherhood among Palestinians. The Saudis consider the Muslim Brotherhood to be a terrorist organization. In light of this, they are not huge fans of Hamas, which is essentially the Palestinian Arab branch of the Muslim Brotherhood.

More of the goodness here.

Wow, you would think that CNN would be confronting Tlaib with some questions on this, wouldn’t you?

Second CNN contributor apologizes for anti-Semitic tweets

Ahh, maybe not so much. Of course, had this been a conservative journalist, oh wait it’s CNN, the word journalist doesn’t really apply does it?

But, I suppose we can rely on UNRWA to continue their good work to assist the Falestinians in remaining in poverty, right?

UNRWA faces allegations of corruption, ‘sexual misconduct’

Ohhhhh, that may be a no as well, eh?

But the point is, while Omar and Tlaib spew their Jew hatred which they attempt to disguise with thin excuses are they to blame for inciting this?

Jewish Agency: Signs point to anti-Semitism in Miami shooting

And then the third stooge (with apologies to the original three) Ms. Occasional-Cortex had to chime in.

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez said that people such as Palestinians have no other option than to “riot” because they are “marginalized” by Israel — drawing swift outrage from Jewish advocacy groups.

…

Radio host Ebro Darden prompted the discussion with Ocasio-Cortez by saying there are a number of “corrupt” governments — lumping together Israel, the United States, Russia and Saudi Arabia — which he claimed are “working in concert.”

He went on to assert that young Jewish people are against the “Palestine occupation” and would like to see the ouster of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.

Darden also ranted about “white supremacist Jews” and said it’s “something most people can’t wrap their brains around.”

“And what’s going on with Israel and Palestine, while it’s very, very deep, it is very, very criminal, and it is very, very unjust,” he said.

Ocasio-Cortez agreed, saying, “Absolutely.”

“I think, too, where we’re at as a country when it comes to Israel-Palestine is very much a generational issue,” Ocasio-Cortez said.

One person is responsible, the one who pulled the trigger. Not the gun. But the very anti-Semitic goon “squad” is certainly doing their best to incite hatred with their lies. It seems many in the Arab world are realizing that the Falestinians are a lie and are tired of them, and their lies. How many Americans will still buy the lies and that pile of Tlaib that she and the rest of the goon squad are dishing out?

Yom HaAtzmaut 2019

May 15, 2019 Sheila Stokes 2 Comments

Well, the 14^th is recognized as Israeli Independence day יום העצמאות, Yom HaAtzmaut and in 1948 the 5^th of Iyar was. This year it was not, this year it was the 10^th of May. I was fortunate enough to be at a table in my local JCC, nope I wasn’t eating. The Shaliach (emissary from the Jewish Federation) asked if I would like to teach about Israel at Yom HaAtzmaut. Oh yes! YES!! What did he want me to teach, since I am pretty sure there are far better qualified, though perhaps not more enthusiastic. I ended up having a table with a map and some post cards from Israel dating back to the 60s and 70s, as well as some of my own photos. I have an idea for a presentation I would like to work up and have on hand for the future. I called my presentation “Israel Past and Present”. I met some very interesting people, and had a great time. I loved it, just loved it.

In my Hebrew class we learn all kinds of things, and in one lesson my teacher who grew up on a Kibbutz was teaching us a song that was in our school book. It’s called Boker Boker Ba. It means “Morning morning comes”.

It you want a real treat you can listen to this one, I think she said it was recorded on a Kibbutz. The words of the song are basically about celebrating morning coming because they were going off to work on the kibbutz, lunch was for a meal, evening was to rest and at night they assembled. She explained that they were just so glad to have land of their own, that they couldn’t wait to get up of a morning to go work it. I might mention in a kibbutz no one actually owns land, it’s owned by the kibbutz. Many of the Jews that came to Israel came from communist and socialist counties where they hadn’t been allowed to own land, and they were used to the big government where no one owns anything. It’s all property of the state. I understand the feeling. Having land that you love, that you want to work and don’t want to lose. I get it. They are the Israeli version of Scarlett O’Hara,

It’s the land Katie Scarlett, it’s the land~~Gerald O’Hara

So, according to the Falestinian lip flapper, no, not sarsour, the other one, tlaib, those Jews coming after the Holocaust are among the first Jews in Israel. Tlaib #AntisemiticLiar and omar #AntisemiticLiar seem to be having a contest as to who can spout the most outrageous lies, then claim persecuted victim status the quickest. This last week I guess it was tlaib. One of my favorite writers, Jack Engelhard has picked up on their pattern.

So what did Falestinian lip flapper tlaib claim? That the Jews coming from the Holocaust displaced Falestinians (established 1964).

‘There’s always kind of a calming feeling I tell folks when I think of the Holocaust, and the tragedy of the Holocaust, and the fact that it was my ancestors, Palestinians, who lost their land and some lost their lives, their livelihood, their human dignity, their existence in many ways, have been wiped out, and some people’s passports. I mean, just all of it was in the name of trying to create a safe haven for Jews, post-the Holocaust, post-the tragedy and the horrific persecution of Jews across the world at that time, and I love the fact that it was my ancestors that provided that, right, in many ways. But they did it in a way that took their human dignity away, right, and it was forced on them.’”

Prior to 1964 Falestinians were arabs. And prior to 1948 they were arabs living in the British Mandate of Palestine. They were mainly Jordanian, I’ve been told you can tell by their surnames. Jews have been living in Israel since G-d told Avraham Lech Leha, go from here (to Israel). But the modern state of Israel? That began in the 1800s.

The first wave, known as the “First Aliyah,” took place prior to political Zionism, in the late 1800s….

The Second Aliyah , prior to World War I, ….

After World War I and until 1923, the Third Aliyah came to Israel. …

The Fourth Aliyah, which took place over a short period of time from 1924 to 1929,….

The Fifth Aliyah coincided with the rise of Nazism in Germany and extreme nationalism across Eastern Europe

And just who were the Jews that came prior to WWII buying the land from? The Ottoman Turks. Who didn’t want to sell it to them, and made it very difficult legally for them to buy land, that did ease up later. So what were the arabs doing in Israel prior to the Jews buying the land? They didn’t own the land, they worked it for the Turks. The Ottoman census of 1875 has Jews listed as the population majority of Jerusalem, by 1905 Jews made up two thirds of the population majority of Jerusalem. This has a lot of interesting goodies.

So tlaib shoots off her ignorance, and shares her comforting feelings about the Holocaust and Republicans including President Trump are outraged. Steny Hoyer and San Fran Nancy Pelosi were outraged as well, outraged I say! At Republicans and President Trump, not tlaib, her they stood up for.

Predictably, tlaib rushed to get her “victimhood prize” happy meal.

Tlaib accuses critics of ‘twisting her words for racist agenda’

Shall I say it again? Demoncrats are not our friends. Need I point out that the arabs collaborated with hitler? History doesn’t appear to be tlaib’s strong suit.

My how the Demoncratic party had changed!

The 1948 Democrat Party Platform stated:

”President Truman, by granting immediate recognition to Israel, led the world in extending friendship and welcome to a people who have long sought and justly deserve freedom and independence.

We pledge full recognition to the State of Israel.

Yes, some arabs may have rescued Jews at different time. But I have a feeling these Jews experienced the “rescue” of tlaib’s family.

There were riots in Israel in 1929, for example in Hevron (and here) and Safed. Long before 1948 when she was attacked by the five arab nations at once after Ben-Gurion declared statehood. These things were easy to pull off because the British didn’t allow the Jews to have guns. The arabs? Whatever.

It’s not that way today. The British don’t control Israel, and the people are less helpless. Though gun control for citizens is not good and until Moshe Feiglin is Prime Minister that is not likely to change. Maybe in a couple of years.

You may remember one of my heroes Ari Fuld was killed not long ago. His brother Hillel put out a statement that fellow writer Y.B. ben Avraham shared with me.
