Ilhan Omar's "Anti-Semitism"

Although if she said Jews have dual loyalty that's a pretty dumb thing to say, but the shit about AIPAC? Give me a fucking break :lmao

[FrostKing]

Few thoughts

A) Her comments are correct

B) Illustrates why Democrats relationship with Muslims makes very little logical sense beyond there being few Muslims in America thus Dems "muh minority"

C) This will end up fracturing Dems but I agree and respect her stance. She just had an aggressive way of expressing it and of course she's Muslim so bias on the issue.

Israel has exhausted its anti-Semitic card.

It's true that anti-Semitic people are (likely) to be anti-Israel, but being anti-Israel in itself isn't anti-Semitic ;)

there is anti-semitic and anti-zionist

the first is in itself racist and wrong. the 2nd is like saying anti-nazist. not racist, not wrong. Zionism is similar to nazism in that each beleives their race is superior and must win vs other races

Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) defended Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.) on Wednesday amid an avalanche of criticism she’s received over comments about Israel that some have slammed as anti-Semitic.

Sanders, who is running for president in 2020 and in 2016 became the first Jewish politician to win a state's presidential primary, said he fears a House resolution intended to rebuke Omar over the comments could end up stifling legitimate debate over the Israeli government’s policies.

“Anti-Semitism is a hateful and dangerous ideology which must be vigorously opposed in the United States and around the world. We must not, however, equate anti-Semitism with legitimate criticism of the right-wing, Netanyahu government in Israel. Rather, we must develop an even-handed Middle East policy which brings Israelis and Palestinians together for a lasting peace,” he said in a statement to The Hill.

“What I fear is going on in the House now is an effort to target Congresswoman Omar as a way of stifling that debate," he continued. “That's wrong.”

I'm Jewish, and I Find the Hypocrisy of Republican Islamophobes Hounding Ilhan Omar Breathtaking
It is no surprise that the first elected officials defending Palestinian human rights are facing such fierce opposition from defenders of the status quo
by
Rebecca Vilkomerson


Representative Ilhan Omar is facing censure in the House, brought in part by her own party leaders. She is also facing shockingly Islamophobic attacks calling her a terrorist, simply because she is a Muslim. And all the while, other congressional leaders are tweeting out unabashedly anti-Semitic messages with abandon.

The hypocrisy is breathtaking enough at its own right, but it is also an indicator of the fight between an emerging progressive coalition that seems different than Congressional generations of old, and which increasingly integrates Palestinian rights into its agenda, based on universal rights and the need for equality and freedom for all people.

Representative Ilhan Omar is also part of a class of newly elected Congresspeople who don’t look much like Congresspeople of generations past: dynamic women of color from communities (Black and Muslim in Ilhan Omar’s case,) who face some of the fiercest racism and xenophobia in this country.

The Jews had to know this day was coming. Their diversity/equality brainwashing would result in a non-White American public with no connection to Israel/WW2.

What could the growing Mexican population in the USA possibly know or care bout the Middle East. Hell alot of Mexicans I know are very sympathetic towards Germany/Germans.

[Winehole23]

The all for the Benjamins comment was tone deaf and plays into stereotypes, but her characterization of a national interest lobby seeking to influence policy by spending money and speaking well or ill of US candidates for national office is uncontroversially true.

Remember we're taking about a US rep who has used the #bdsksa hashtag too.

Apparently the Dems couldn't brave the backlash from American Jews and Congressional staffers.

Btw, when is the GOP going to start policing the antisemitism on their side?

The blue team is the party of inclusiveness.

They should have ideas from a variety of backgrounds and benefit from it.
Israel should elicit thorough discussion. We have proven democracies can behave badly.
There are people in Israel who are absolutely sick of their behavior.

And they say so and they wonder why Benji isn’t gone.

We have legitimate discussions on why the US has never considered itself and empire.
We have behaved, in certain situations, like an imperial power.

How does this seem to get left out of our history...
It needs to be put out there any candidates need to comment on it.
And if it really is that important votes should be swayed.

I think that’s the way it supposed to work...
Then when criticism leads to tribal retribution aka populism that needs to be called out and acted upon.
The blue team should be discussing all of this right now. To solidify moral superiority over the red team


We can now shut the political forum down.
Problems have been solved.

"What many people may not realize is that the nation of Israel has spent a significant amount of money on lobbying the federal and state governments to make any criticism of Israel “unacceptable”. It’s now legally impossible to get or maintain federal contracts, or in a significant number of states, state government contracts, if your company engages in or even simply advocates a boycott of Israel or criticism of its government.

Criticism of Israel is as much a political “third rail” as is touching social security or Medicare. "

They were far from it

[JoeTait75]

Although if she said Jews have dual loyalty that's a pretty dumb thing to say

Joseph Sobran was once asked if he thought Jews had dual loyalty. He replied, "Dual loyalty would be an improvement." :lol

Omar isn't saying anything a lot of people don't already know. And the relationship between this country and Israel is something that shouldn't be off-limits to discussion. How she laid it out doesn't really matter. People like Ben Shapiro and mainstream conservatives are always going to scream "Anti-Semite!" whenever the subject is even brought up, no matter how diplomatically. Shapiro is a fraud, btw: he makes a living shitting on half-wit college kids, calling them snowflakes, telling them facts don't care about their feelings, and the minute someone says something uncomplimentary about his precious Israel he turns into exactly what he supposedly despises. What a putz.

Anyway, the "special relationship" with Israel should be open to discussion. And all the better that it's Ilhan Omar, the winsome little Muslim girl in her headdress. If it was some white Republican from Alabama saying the same thing it would be DOA.

I have never ever seen someone like our current president who lies about subjects that dont even need to be lied about.
