Ilhan Omar’s Israel-Hating Thread Proves They Were Exactly Right To Ban Her From Entering

As you know, Ilhan Omar and Rashida Tlaib were barred from entering Israel, a country they actively seek to harm through their clear support of the BDS movement.

Tlaib was later allowed to enter, to see her elderly grandmother, on the condition that she not try to DESTROY IT while she was there. She couldn’t agree to that.

Ilhan Omar, who sought to enter PURELY to stir the pot, is still not allowed in.

She’s pissed.

Let’s be clear: the goal of our trip was to witness firsthand what is happening on the ground in Palestine and hear from stakeholders —our job as Members of Congress.

But since we were unable to fulfill our role as legislators, I am sharing what we would have seen. (THREAD)

“I am sharing what we would have seen.”

How does she know what she would have seen?

Is this kind of like how AOC probably came up with the ‘THEY DRINK FROM TOILETS!’ thing before she got to the detention center?

FACT CHECK: FALSE.

This is a lie, here is your full schedule published by your office, you didn’t plan a single meeting with members of the Knesset or Israeli security officials. https://t.co/TuP3HeCNrs pic.twitter.com/iHtIElwDPz

Why would you lie about something so easy to refute, Ilhan?

Ilhan Omar is lying, again

Omar’s itinerary for her trip was published yesterday and it included “no Israeli officials of any government agency or political party”https://t.co/doqEgrg1H0 https://t.co/ghXrUHteQi

They lie like this because the liberal media, and the Democrats, refuse to call Ilhan out on ANYTHING, that’s why.

Then, the delegation was going to receive a briefing on the Bedouin community in East Jerusalem. For decades, Bedouin homes have been bulldozed and communities have been uprooted in order to build settlements on Palestinian land.

TRANSLATION: I was going to PROVE that Israel is EVIL and that it’s TRUMP’S FAULT.

Last year, the Trump Admin announced the U.S. will no longer contribute to the United Nations’ relief agency for Palestinian refugees, threatening the livelihood of millions and violating international law.https://t.co/lmoXo6ruZB

Trump is evil, part 2.

Israeli officials do not let Members of Congress visit Gaza.https://t.co/66ruDIh5fo

— Ilhan Omar (@IlhanMN) August 16, 2019

You want to visit Gaza? Have fun with that.

We planned to visit the separation wall around historic Bethlehem. Only 13% of Bethlehem is now accessible to Palestinian use.

The wall, built in 2002 against international law, was said at the time to be “temporary.”

It still stands. https://t.co/EVftWuvtLe

In 2018, the Netanyahu government refused entry to Katherine Frank and my friend @VinceWarren who had arrived on a mostly-POC human rights mission. https://t.co/P8Exe1mRmN

— Ilhan Omar (@IlhanMN) August 16, 2019

And about that…

“…who had arrived on a mostly-POC human rights mission…”

and yet only two were refused entry, one of them white?

But look who WAS allowed in: @TamikaDMallory, a @LouisFarrakhan fan. https://t.co/9KahOT0PoQ pic.twitter.com/qqsjbtUyF1

THAT’S RACISM.

Or not. Who knows anymore.

You mean “from the river to the sea” right?

(Yes. She does.)

Any questions on why she wanted to go to Israel?

A group, which like her, is made of notoriously outspoken anti-Semites.

The occupation is real.
Barring members of Congress from seeing it does not make it go away.
We must end it—together. (END)

— Ilhan Omar (@IlhanMN) August 16, 2019

She wanted to go to Israel to destroy it from the inside.

Any questions?
