But where can Rashida Tlaib go? Joe Biden is still the candidate who is most likely to deliver on her pet issue, advancing the “Palestinian” jihad against Israel. And so she is almost certain to fall into line and vote for old Joe, however reluctantly. And that was what the Biden team was apparently counting on when it decided to denounce Sarsour: they knew that the anti-Semitic, pro-jihad wing of the party wouldn’t like it but wouldn’t go anywhere, and the denunciation would reassure Leftist Jews and others who still believe that the Democrats haven’t completely sold out to the Squad and Bernie Sanders.
“Tlaib Slams Biden Campaign for Disavowing Anti-Semite Linda Sarsour,” by Alex Nester, Washington Free Beacon, August 20, 2020:
Democratic Rep. Rashida Tlaib (Mich.) took a shot at Joe Biden on Wednesday after his presidential campaign dissociated itself with anti-Semitic liberal activist Linda Sarsour.
“I am so sick and tired of folks going after @lsarsour and other Palestinian activists for speaking the truth about oppression and injustice,” Tlaib wrote on social media. “You don’t get it yet. We don’t stop until everyone is free. We will always outwork the hate.”
Tlaib’s remarks came after Biden’s campaign emphatically denied having connections to Sarsour after she spoke at a Democratic National Convention caucus meeting Tuesday. Andrew Bates, a spokesman for the Biden campaign, said Sarsour has “no role in the campaign whatsoever” and affirmed Biden’s support for Israel. He reiterated the DNC’s platform, which rejects any effort to “delegitimize Israel” including the Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions movement—which both Tlaib and Sarsour support….
Tlaib, one of four far-left House Democrats known as “the Squad,” has not yet endorsed Biden.
Mike says
well well well the anti-sematic group were not allowed to speak at the convention
it could be that the DNC realize that CAIR is only using the DNC
past comments and proof only proves that the Democrats are only Useful Idiots
Heidi says
I don’t think that’s true. I think the DNC is totally inline with CAIR. They are just keeping it from the American people until they have the power to i pose their leftist agenda uponus.

While we were sleeping
In 2003 at the Senate Sub-Committee hearing on RADICAL ISLAM, Senator Charles Schumer, NY stated: “To make matters worse, the prominent member of the Council’s (CAIR) current leadership who you Mr. Chairman, invited to the hearings today, they DECLINED to testify, also have intimate connections with HAMAS”.
Incorporated in 1994, the Association of Palestine (IAP) leaders were Nihad Awad, Omar Ahmah,and Rafael Jabber.
2005 MSA, LA, California, Ahmed Shama. “The only obligation that we have to live in this country is da’wa. Because, why am I saying that? Because we are paying taxes, these taxes are going to killing people, our brothers and sisters. So we better have a good justification for what we do. The end goal of everything that we are talking about is the Establishment of the Islamic form of government”.
Way back in 2008 at the ISNA Conference in San Antonio, Texas, Sarwat Husain, National Board member of CAIR said: “ It is very important, media in the US is very gullible. OK? and we will see if you have something, especially as a Muslim, if you have something to say, they’ll come running to you and take advantage of that”.
Same conference
Nihad Awad “ Give scholarships, 5 years you will have an army Of lawyers, POLITICIANS, JOURNALISTS, UNIVERSITIES Zeno can educate people about the history of Islam—The true Islam”.
“Ultimately we can never be full citizens of this country, because there is no way we can be fully committed to the institutions and ideologies of this country”.
And now they have Talib.
Mike Stevens says
Excellent post, ET. As for ‘the end goal.. is the establishment of the Islamic form of government’, there can NEVER be an Islamic government or revolution anywhere in the civilised world, because Muslims hate each other, Sunni v Shia, as much as they hate non-believers – so for 1400 years most of their time, energy and resources have gone into fighting and killing each other.
To make any impact they would have to have a united front – but that won’t happen either, if it came to a confrontation they would be obliterated by the collective intelligence, resources, technology and military might of the civilised world.
Les Brigance says
Wrong, when there enough muslimes in our military their Mutiny will make Our military go to war against itself!
talleyrand says
They wont committ great there is the airport now buggar off and take all with you, welcome mat withdrawn .
Plenty people in South Africa who will and can associate and mix with Americans ,and have no wish for Sharia ,will work and produce, not be a drudge on the economy.
In their favour do not follow and Ideology of hate
AS they say on the quiz shows or did come on down
Mike Stevens says
Here’s an outlandish thought: how about the elected representative for Michigan stop agitating and campaigning for Palestine, and maybe focus on working for the interests of, er, the people of Michigan??

45 Questions the Media Should Ask Joe Biden and Kamala Harris

yiyoya says
“We don’t stop until everyone is free. ”
Tlaib like the socialists is motivated by an irrational, corrupt, and evil definition of freedom. She, the Palestinians, and the socialists realize just how noble, virtuous, moral, inspiring and powerful the cause of freedom is. So they hijack and corrupt the definition of freedom by using the collectivist trick and deception of the fallacy of equivocation to manipulate the stupids or the weary to support the slavery of collectivism. Freedom is an attribute of the INDIVIDUAL and ONLY the individual, not of the collective, be that collective a race, tribe, sex, nation, ethnicity, religion, etc., etc..
“Freedom, in a political context, has only one meaning: the absence of physical coercion….
The right of a nation to determine its own form of government does not include the right to establish a slave society (that is, to legalize the enslavement of some men by others). THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS THE “RIGHT TO ENSLAVE”. A nation CAN do it, just as a man CAN become a criminal—but neither can do it BY RIGHT.
It does not matter, in this context, whether a nation was enslaved by force, like Soviet Russia, or by vote, like Nazi Germany. Individual rights are not subject to a public vote; a majority has no right to vote away the rights of a minority; the political function of rights is precisely to protect minorities from oppression by majorities (and the smallest minority on earth is the individual). Whether a slave society was conquered or CHOSE to be enslaved, it can claim no national rights and no recognition of such “rights” by civilized countries . . . .
Dictatorship nations are outlaws. Any free nation had the RIGHT to invade Nazi Germany and, today, has the RIGHT to invade Soviet Russia, Cuba or any other slave pen. Whether a free nation chooses to do so or not is a matter of its own self-interest, NOT of respect for the non-existent “rights” of gang rulers. It is not a free nation’s DUTY to liberate other nations at the price of self-sacrifice, but a free nation has the right to do it, when and if it so chooses.
This right, however, is conditional. Just as the suppression of crimes does not give a policeman the right to engage in criminal activities, so the invasion and destruction of a dictatorship does not give the invader the right to establish another variant of a slave society in the conquered country.
Foggy metaphors, sloppy images, unfocused poetry, and equivocations—such as “A hungry man is not free”—do not alter the fact that ONLY political power is the power of physical coercion….
FREEDOM, in a political context, means freedom from government coercion. It does not mean freedom from the landlord, or freedom from the employer, or freedom from the laws of nature which do not provide men with automatic prosperity. It means freedom from the coercive power of the state—and nothing else….
If one upholds freedom, one must uphold man’s individual rights; if one upholds man’s individual rights, one must uphold his right to his own life, to his own liberty, to the pursuit of his own happiness—which means: one must uphold a political system that guarantees and protects these rights—which means: the politico-economic system of CAPITALISM….
INTELLECTUAL freedom cannot exist without political freedom; POLITICAL freedom cannot exist without ECONOMIC freedom; A FREE MIND AND A FREE MARKET ARE COROLLARIES….
Do not be misled . . . by an old collectivist trick which goes like this: there is no absolute freedom anyway, since you are not free to murder; society limits your freedom when it does not permit you to kill; therefore, society holds the right to limit your freedom in any manner it sees fit; therefore, drop the delusion of freedom—freedom is whatever society decides it is.
It is not society, nor any social right, that forbids you to kill—but the inalienable individual right of another man to live. This is not a “compromise” between two rights—but a line of division that preserves both rights untouched. The division is not derived from an edict of society—but from your own inalienable individual right. The definition of this limit is not set arbitrarily by society—but is implicit in the definition of your own right.” – Ayn Rand

Fine analysis, yiyoya.
Bob says
As usual, Spencer nailed it. Biden’s comments on Sarsour were a political maneuver designed to trick ill-informed liberals (and Jews) in thinking that he’s not anti-Semitic. But the fact is, he’ll lie, cheat and trick anyone to accomplish his political goals. Much like his “trick” running mate Kamala (I’ve slept my way to the top) Harris.
RichardL says
I don’t think Joe is anti-Semitic. I think Joe is nothing. He would forget anyway. In that respect he is better than Hillary who also was nothing. But she never forget what everything is for: herself. “I am with her” Doesn’t matter anyway: Joe won’t ever debate DJT and Joe will only become President in his own mind. He thinks he is running for the Senate, too.
underbed cat says
That is Islam 101. truth about Islam is hate speech, facts are racist accorfding to sharia observant. nothing negative can be spoken. Yes, in order for JB to win, he had to distance himself from people who took the oath of office on the Quran or an ally of one who did, anti semitism is a sticky problem does not exist, during election cycles…. Hamas and Hezbollah the Palestinians, they shoot rockets, send incendiary divices no one sees outside of Israel… so he is covered..along with the famous rock throwing and stab events just a protest….got it? JB may not be antisemitic but his party hides much and it started in 2008 because it is purged and the new CVE, is restricted and and they can’t even do that well.
Bob says
Political correctness be damned. This lady is the true face of Islam; aggressive, angry, distorted and hateful.

Bob,
I literally cannot look at her.
Nauseating…

Sadly, she and Ilhan Omar will be around for another term as will many leftist in the House and Senate.

Great comments. Some here in Israel are trembling at the “Dem” prospect.
Vladimir says
Tlaib is the face of the future of the Democratic Party, for now. In time they’ll have Muslim men running instead of women and that’ll be when there are more Muslims in America, and so the Democratic Party will become the ”Muslim Party” and only look after Muslim interests in the US and around the world. Identity politics will end, replaced by calls for Sharia law in the individual States of the US, as the 1st Amendment only says the US Congress shall not favor any establishment of religion on a federal level. But the States can have an official religion (Connecticut was officially Congregationalist until 1830) and so several will go Islamic in Democratic controlled States.
Mike says
wake up world
this is what it’s coming to
Vladimir says
+1 I think it will take a major spiritual enlightenment from God for us to successfully fight this threat.
infidel says
u are right on the dot because the same thing has happened with the Congress party in India… it is effectively run and controlled by Muslims. So also will be the Labor party in the UK.
Vladimir says
Yes, the politically active Islamists are able to fill every empty container of a political party. If you lose sight of what you originally believed, they are there to offer, then force, what they believe on you.
gravenimage says
Muslim men have already been elected to Congress in the US, in fact, they were elected first–Keith Ellison and André Carson (I wonder what their Muslim names are?).
Vladimir says
Yes, but i’m talking full on Muslim traditional attire and all that, calls for Sharia and morality police, after the next wave of immigration
gravenimage says
I see what you mean, Vladimir. Likely so–right now, the Muslim men in Congress use Western names and wear suits as a sort of camouflage.
