“Dignity from Detroit to Palestine.”
But not for Israel. Tlaib must have been laughing up her sleeve at the credulity and helpfulness of these Useful Idiots. The BDS movement is frankly neo-Nazi in its goals, as the Nazis staged nationwide boycotts of Jewish-owned businesses early in the life of the Third Reich. So Rashida Tlaib has every reason to distance herself from this movement, but she knows that she will pay no political price for endorsing it — indeed, in her district, this will make her even more popular.
“Tlaib attends Shabbat event with pro-BDS group after rejecting West Bank visit,” Times of Israel, August 17, 2019 (thanks to the Geller Report):
Democratic congresswoman Rashida Tlaib met with supporters Friday at a Shabbat event in Detroit sponsored by a left-wing Jewish group that backs the boycott of Israel. The event took place after Tlaib said she would not visit her family in the West Bank despite being granted permission by Jerusalem.
Tlaib requested and was allowed to visit her grandmother on humanitarian grounds after she and Rep. Ilhan Omar on Thursday were barred from visiting the West Bank and Jerusalem in their capacity as US lawmakers because of their support for boycotting Israel. She changed her mind about the family trip hours after it was approved on Friday, citing its “humiliating” terms.
The Detroit News reported that around 60 people attended the event in Detroit’s Pallister Park organized by Jewish Vote for Peace, a new group that describes itself as the sister organization to Jewish Voice for Peace and as its political and advocacy arm. Jewish Voice for Peace supports the Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions (BDS) movement against Israel.
Organizers called the event “Shabbat in the Park with Rashida.” Video from the scene showed attendees reciting prayers and singing songs in Hebrew and holding signs with the slogan “Dignity from Detroit to Palestine” (Tlaib represents Michigan’s 13th congressional district, which includes parts of Detroit).
“Thank you for uplifting peace, love and justice. Thank you for not politicizing what has happened to me because I’m still a granddaughter,” a tearful Tlaib told the group. “I cannot tell you how much love I feel here.”…

J.I.N.O.’s = Jews in name only. How would these JINO’s feel if people boycotted their businesses in America because they are Jewish? Couldn’t happen?
Are the Pallies upholding love? No, they are upholding Islamic supremacism and the hatred of kafirs ‘for the sake of Allah’.
Muslims who do not hate kafirs will be sent to Islamic hell.
The Koran has more Jew hatred in it than Mein Kampf.
But the JINO Pollyannas prefer their fantasy version of Islam … kumbaya, kumbaya.

Are Christians who support the BDS Movement C.I.N.O.s? I guess so.
mortimer says
O Rare One, Your facetious remark is not based on a logical premise. There is a ‘Jewish homeland’ today in Israel. Obviously, there is no ‘Christian homeland’ today, if not the Vatican of the RCC. However, RCs cannot go there and demand a passport. Christians who support BDS are certainly confused by propaganda due to a crafty dhimmi theology that was invented after WWII. In 1919, Italian, French and British troops seized the Middle East from Ottoman Turkey, and the League of Nations approved a Jewish homeland. The idea that small nations such as Latvia, Slovakia and Armenia should have their own homelands comes from the romantic cultural movement and was facilitated by the dissolution of empires at the end of WWI.
JINOs who identify more as Leftists than as Jews have a perfect right to oppose Israel, but they are weakening the voice of all Jews so the enemies of Jews are emboldened.
The League of Nations never approved a ‘Christian’ homeland.

Under your theory Jews who do not support Israel or who oppose Israel are Jews in name only. If Israel’s neighbours weren’t trying to destroy Israel then, I suppose, it would be academic.
BUT. As it would appear that islam is out to destroy Christians as well as Jews (and every other non-muslim on the planet) wouldn’t it make sense for Christians to oppose islam and its supporters? Hence a Christian who doesn’t would be a Christian in name only.
That is the natural extension of your argument.

Not all Leftards are 100% loony. BILL MAHER DENOUNCES BDS
Outspoken political commentator Bill Maher called the anti-Israel boycott movement a “bulls**t purity test by people who want to appear [progressive] but actually slept through history class.”
Responding to Israel’s ban on U.S. lawmakers Ilhan Omar and Rashida Tlaib over their support for the anti-Israel BDS movement, political pundit Bill Maher accused those who support boycotts of the Jewish state as ignorant of history and reality on the ground.
Maher noted that Israel’s action against the freshman congresswoman arrives against the backdrop of brutal Palestinian terror campaigns, rocket attacks, and Palestinian refusal to admit that the Jewish people have a right to a sovereign state in their ancestral homeland.
“Somehow, this never gets presented in the American media,” Maher laments, speaking truth-to-power!
Angemon says
Bill Maher stated that he wanted a recession just to get rid of Trump. And he stands by his words.

Yes, Mortimer–thank goodness for the comparative sanity of Bill Maher. He’s a brave and principled guy.
Peter Dale says
Curious that this champion of the oppressed has nothing to say about the Chinese efforts to stamp out Moslem practices in China. They are now forcing Moslems to eat pork. Where are the protests? Where is the anger? Oh, by the way, Saudi Arabia and Iran are quite delighted to support the Chinese. Tlaib, methinks, protests too much and too conveniently. And the publicity!

Humiliating? Why isn’t she campaigning against the daily humiliation faced by Muslim women under the yoke of Islam??!!
Time for muslims to cut their 1400 years of losses and admit they’ve collectively made a horrible mistake for themselves and possibly future generations by following such a screwball ideology. There’s no shame in it.
Everyone makes mistakes. Just face up to it
and get on with your lives. You’ll be happy you did. If you collectively leave your self imposed prison there is little the imams can do. What, are they gonna hang over a billion people? There’s not enough rope in the world.
James Lincoln says
This feature article should remove all doubts about the wisdom that both United States and Israel used to keep Representative Tlaib out of Israel.
She wanted to go there, meet her Palestinian brothers and sisters, and grandstand for B.D.S.
Absolutely revolting…

Revolting? Well, their divide-and-rule strategy is working. American Jews are divided and misinformed and she cleverly manipulates them.

It comes as a shock to some people that not all Jews are supporters of Israel.

Yes, Tlaib’s grandstanding is obviously more important than visiting her old granny.

The next not too distant steps for this far-left Jewish pro-BDS group would be to provide machetes to devout Muslims while – at the same time – offering up their necks…

Too nearly the truth, James. There is an animation by DarkMatter2525 where a Westerner offers his neck to a machete-wielding Jihadist because to not so so would be “Islamophobic” and “racist”.

Mr. Cohen says
QUESTION: How could American Jews be
stupid enough to befriend a Jew-hater like Rashida Tlaib?
ANSWER:
The overwhelming majority of American Jews never receive any education in their own Jewish religion or their own Jewish History or their own Jewish language.
As a result, the overwhelming majority of American Jews KNOW NOTHING — or almost nothing – about their own Jewish religion and their own Jewish History and their own Jewish language.
As a result, the overwhelming majority of American Jews do not practice Judaism and do not understand Judaism and do not even believe in Judaism.
Another very big problem is that American Jews favor the American political Left, because many decades ago, the American political Left was perceived as being friendlier to the Jews than the Right. No matter how many decades pass by, that perception never changes and never gets updated or reviewed; it is engraved in stone.
American Jews who actually understand their religion,
and practice it, are mostly anti-Leftists.
Rarely says
Well said. But it’s still “mostly” anti-Leftists. This particular bunch is particularly loony by standing beside those who would have them dead. It has nothing to do with being for or against BDS or Israel — just being naïve enough to be easily misled and stupid enough to let themselves be so badly used. It’s one thing not to be pro-Israel and quite another to want its destruction and the annihilation of its citizenry.
CRUSADER says
Christians who support the BDS Movement C.I.N.O.s?
I don’t see why not, actually!
Many attributes make up a CINO.
Not supporting Israel, and supporting BDS of Israel
could countenance being a CINO.
How could a Christian not support Israel???
OREN WYSOCKI says
There are leftist american Jews who don’t care much about the security of the Jewish people, they don’t care much about the truth, they don’t care about justice. They do not ever mention the many mass murders of Jews at the hands of the muslims, nor the 1400 years of denied equal rights for Jews, nor about the muslims calling for the re-establishment of muslim supremacy.
They only care about saying things that bring people together, no matter how many Jews have died numbering in the millions due to past failures of coexistence in Europe and the middle east they do not care. They just mindlessly keep pushing for the same unity and understanding of similarities strategy of love and kindness that has failed for thousands of years, since the first empire in Egypt mass murdered their Jews in an act of racial supremacy. It is to bad, but we must accept that there are some Jews who are incapable of recognizing the truth, and recognizing reasonable threats. They are A threat to your Jewish families, they are A threat to your Jewish children, they are A threat to all gentiles who want to know the real path to peace, which is not living with the Jews that makes to many people way to crazy to control. The path to peace is described in the Torah, which states the Jews should live separately from the gentiles.
If your nation can stop people from getting to angry over racial inequality than you can save lives. But if there are Jews in your country, the number of gentile people who perish due to radicalization and outrage will be far more. It does not matter if the Jews convert their religion, or deny their Jewishness, it would be like A black man converting to an eskimo, it is stupid, and the thoughts of the stupid. Expel the Jews from your nations to Israel, and many lives will be saved. If you are Jewish do not listen to radical leftists who do not care about what is good for you, they only care about what they want to believe in, everyone else is expendable, including you and yours. You can confirm for yourself that they are not willing to consider seriously that they are wrong, by talking to them and asking them questions, if you are prone to think that how you treat others should not depend on how logical, moral or safe your ideas are. In G-d I trust.
Jonty says
These ‘Jews’ should have their names registered at Israeli passport control, their rights under the ‘law of return’ cancelled and never be permitted entry into Israel. Similarly they should be excommunicated in absentia by an Israeli Beth Din. Leftist ‘Jews’ are leftists, not Jews.
Israel has the right to refuse entry to anyone it sees fit to and is not obliged to permit entry to anti-Semites, genocidists, Nazis and other like degenerates.
ronyvo says
THIS IS ISLAM. Takyya at it’s best or worst. But, this is the ugliest of what I have encountered and I have witnessed a lot of them, since I lived with this satanic system for over 25 years of my life.
On the other hand, I wish that this would be a push for those who STILL do not realize of how dangerous and distrustful Islam is.
Or Else! says
Anti-Semitism is alive and well in the Dhimmocrat Party….and their bullhorn propaganda media are only too happy to downplay, defend, soft-sell it.
Instead of the truth, they project the false narrative that “Trump’s the Hitler! His adherents are the Nazis.”
In a transcript of a recent New York Times editorial meeting, executive editor Dean Baquet informed his staff that the Russia narrative is over…and they’re to push “Trump’s a racist” for the next year or so. And if the NYT has that directive, the entire legacy media have it as well. Fake news? You bet.
Claiming FAKE white supremacy in order to set the table for REAL Islamic theocratic supremacy.

She is just the beginning of the attempt to take over America as the muslims have in Europe. Americans need to wise up and close the borders as this is the beginning of their takeover, they will out breed us six to one. And they are not here to promote freedom. They are here to live off of their enemy US and to install their sharia laws and way of life.
