A grotesque illustration of the Leftist-Islamic alliance.
“Bernie Sanders helps Rashida Tlaib host ‘Nakba’ event as rockets rain on Israel,” by Lahav Harkov, Jerusalem Post, May 11, 2023:
US Sen. Bernie Sanders (Independent-Vermont) on Wednesday salvaged an event planned by Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-Michigan) that called Israel’s establishment a “catastrophe.”
US Speaker of the House Kevin McCarthy had blocked Tlaib from holding the event at the US Capitol Visitor Center.
The event, which took place on a day in which Palestinian terrorists shot 500 rockets at Israeli civilians, was organized in partnership with organizations that glorify terrorism against Israel and proliferate antisemitic messaging. It was first reported in The Jerusalem Post this week.
However, Sanders let her hold the event in the Senate Health, Education, Labor and Pensions hearing room, which he chairs and where McCarthy does not have the authority to block an event. Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-New York) also does not have the jurisdiction to stop chairmen from hosting meetings in their committee rooms.
“We have a right to tell our stories of the Nakba of 1948… because the Nakba never ended,” Tlaib said.
She acknowledged Sanders’s help, calling him her “aamu,” Arabic for uncle, in the Senate. Sanders did not attend the event.
“No child should ever have to worry what will fall from the sky,” Tlaib said. She accused the Israeli police of a “sustained campaign of terror,” that Israel is an apartheid state and that US aid supports ethnic cleansing, Jewish Insider reported.
Rep. Cori Bush (D-Missouri), who attended the event, tweeted earlier this week: “Not a single dollar of US aid should go to funding Israeli apartheid.”
Tlaib tweeted photos from the event with the caption: “Let the headlines read, ‘McCarthy tries to erase Palestine but fails.’”
Despite singling out erasure as a sin, Tlaib herself has been guilty of erasing Israel, such as when she hung a map in her office that depicted the entire land between the Mediterranean Sea and the Jordan River as Palestinian….

Bernie Sanders is evidentiary of the disaster which has happened to Vermont. As with Howard Dean, previous Governor of Vermont and a Presidential candidate, numerous individuals from the New York City area (and other major metropolitan areas like Boston) moved to Vermont over the past half century or so and “took it over.” And, considering the “record” of this “migration,” it overwhelmingly proves Thomas Jefferson’s assessment of cities, i.e., that they are the breeding ground of filth and pessimism and many other negatives. Yes, cities have some attributes like museums and great restaurants but the parts are always greater than the whole while in small-town America and rural America the whole is always greater than the parts. Conclusion: the best of America DOES NOT reside in urbanities. Doubt me? Well then, imagine America with one exception, to wit, the ten largest cities of America are no longer part of America. Conclude accordingly.
Vermont used to be a bedrock of common sense and traditional values. Now, because the small population there to begin with has been taken over by monumental fools like Sanders and Dean, it has become one of the stupidest US states—right up there with New York, California (yet another once-great state devastated by Leftism) and Massachusetts.
Leftism ruins everything it touches. It has ruined Vermont. Bernie Sanders, old fool that he is, serves as a case in point and so it is no wonder that this destructive and silly human being, who will never learn, has aided the utterly despicable Tlaib in a hate event that demonizes the only decent polity in all of the Middle East—Israel.
Leftism is destroying America from within and it is imperative to understand that not only has Leftism taken over institutions like the MSM, Big Tech and academia, it has also taken over the Democratic Party of the USA. And said party with the imbecile Biden presiding as Puppet-in-Chief is presently in the process of destroying America. Yes, the single greatest enemy of America is not Islam, not China, not Russia, not the Mexican drug cartels, not the permanent inadequacy of Latin America, et al. No, the single greatest enemy of America, nominally headed by the forever despicable, corrupt and incompetent Biden, is the Democratic Party of the USA. Bernie Sanders serves as a case in point.

For the record, I know full well that Sanders is an independent and not formally a Democrat, but this is an asterisk, nothing more than a detail, because Sanders is fully with what has happened to the Democratic Party of the USA.

Wellington,
An excellent and accurate post, my compliments.
Historically, during autumn, I would take my wife and daughter to Stowe, Vermont in order to see the beautiful fall foliage.
Up until a few years ago, we would always stop in Waterbury in order to get a cone of ice cream at Ben & Jerry’s.
The last straw was when Ben & Jerry’s went public with their support for B.D.S. against Israel.
No more Ben & Jerry’s…ever…
Wellington says
I agree, James. I very much like ice cream but if all the ice cream there was was made by Ben & Jerry’s I would cease eating ice cream. Fortunately, as with the Bud Light debacle (which I am enjoying btw), there are many other ice cream makers as there are beer producers.

You are absolutely correct….

Why do people think he is Jewish? That’s just his race, which is an immutable characteristic: as far as his beliefs go, he’s a communist, who makes fake claims about Scandinavian countries being communist, when they just have high taxes and a rich welfare state, but do not have burdensome regulations on businesses the way he & his comrades advocate
James Lincoln says
Infidel,
Bernie Sanders is definitely a communist.
Bexarkat says
Schumer and Sanders…two pees in a pot. Politics trumps morality with these Democrats.
somehistory says
And of course, the ugly creatures…all who attended…celebrate the *win.* Residents who are not mozlum and live in MI, VT, and the state from whence c. bush slithers, MO, should take note. These people have no business making decisions for Americans (or anyone else).
sanders should be having nightly mares of a most horrendous kind for his enabling of so many lies on top of lies.
It’s no wonder the mozlums raining fire down on Israel have no fear of anyone in the U.S. condemning their terrorism, with so many politicians in favor of destroying the Jews…who have just as much right to live as anyone eles.
Ralph says
Unfortunately among anti-israel people there are also many Jews like Bernie Sanders or Noam Chomsky.
clem.alford@talk21.com says
I lived in Canden, North London, a Labour led Council. They allowed a Ramadan event in Tavistock Square where the 7/7 bus bomb was exploded by a jihadi. 13 people died and others injured. I wrote to the council and saying I thought it insensitive and disrespectftful to the dead and the survivors and their families. I was attacked as an Islamophobe and accused of spreading hate.
When the left get attacked by the Jihadis when they are in the majority, as they will, what then?
somehistory says
They will blame those who now disagree with them…the “right”…and say if only all had accepted mozlums and not criticized islam; we should all have just got used to the idea of daily rapes, stabbings and some mass bombings.
OLD GUY says
Bernie Sanders independent – Vermont, how does he keep getting re-elected? Does he have that many relatives? And how did an Independent get the Committee Chairmanship of Senate Health, Education and Labor and Pensions committee? He’s a DEMOCRAT/COMMUNIST, wakeup America!
Hrb says
You let Muslims into your country and shit like this happens
an says
Two most dangerous people in the United States are Omar Ilhan and Rashida Tlaib. They have no allegiance to America. Cory Bush and Ayyana Presley are racists. OAC is simply confused about everything. MTG and Lauren Boebert are radicals and confused but they love America. If America is to survive for centuries, we need to kick the Muslims out. Democrats are worse than Republicans when it comes to this issue.
Walter Sieruk says
First,that demonic and insidious leftist- Islamic alliance against Israel ,therefore it’s striving against the Will of God. This because God is for Israel , He even views her His “peculiar treasure” Psalm 135:4. [K.J.V] Thus even if that people in that movement are too ignorant to know that make them on the side of evil and darkness.
Second, this above photograph of Bernie Sanders and Rashida Tlaib standing next to each other in that stage in close comradeship may ,rightly , seen as the personification of that leftist- Islamic alliance.
Third, that picture of Tlaib and Sanders joining hands together , both against God’s “treasure,” Israel,,is a very strong reflection of the Bible truth found in Proverbs 11:21 . Which informs its reader ” Though hand join in hand, the wicked shall not go unpunished.”

Thank you Mr. Spencer… I share your articles from time to time and my College Aged liberal acquaintances would get upset… I would just say, every word is truth.. every word. If you can show me a lie or even hate in your words I will remove it… but if you write it, it’s Bible… thank you.
