New in PJ Media:
One of the most open-and-shut issues in the history of the United States came before Congress Wednesday, and any decent human being had every reason to expect that the vote on it was unanimous. One of the wise solons present, however, decided, no doubt after a sober period of soul-searching, to have her vote simply record the bare fact that she was present and not her affirmation or rejection of the issue at hand. That righteous and thoughtful lawmaker was Rashida Tlaib (D-Ramallah), and the issue at hand was a condemnation of Hamas for the rape of captive Israeli women.
If you’re wondering how anyone in his or her right mind could have any hesitation about condemning savage mass rapes, it’s only because you haven’t been overcome by the Jew-hatred that has since Oct. 7 become fashionable among leftists and that has for decades been deeply rooted among the supporters of the Palestinian jihad against Israel. The winsome and patriotic Tlaib is, of course, both a deeply committed leftist and a supporter of the Palestinian jihad, so her vote was no real surprise. Still, it sends a chill down the spine to realize that the barbarians aren’t at the gates; they’re in Congress.
Jewish News Syndicate (JNS) reported Wednesday that the House “voted unanimously, 418-0, to condemn Hamas terrorists for rape and sexual violence on Oct. 7.” Rep. Lois Frankel (D-Fla.), who introduced the bill, H.Res.966, noted that “on Oct. 7, Hamas terrorists attacked Israel, mercilessly killing 1,200 people; raping, mutilating, burning and assaulting their victims to inflict physical and psychological pain, unleashing trauma that continues to plague a grieving Israel. The brutality was planned and calculated.” No fair-minded person could disagree, and so Frankel’s resolution gained co-sponsors from the other side of the aisle, including Reps. Mario Díaz-Balart (R-Fla.) and Jen Kiggans (R-Va.).
JNS noted that H.Res.966 “condemns all rape and sexual violence ‘as weapons of war,’ including those Hamas committed on and after Oct. 7; calls on all countries to criminalize rape and sexual assault and hold both state and non-state armed groups accountable for such attacks; and tells international groups to ‘unequivocally condemn the barbaric murder, rape, sexual assault and kidnapping by Hamas and other terrorists on and since Oct. 7 and hold accountable all perpetrators.’”
It affirmed U.S. “support for independent, impartial investigations of rape and sexual violence committed by Hamas on and since Oct. 7” and reaffirmed a “commitment to supporting survivors of rape and sexual violence, including those brutalized on and since Oct. 7.” Who could object? Rashida Tlaib.
There is more. Read the rest here.

Tlaib is as ugly as Medusa, both inwardly and outwardly. Perhaps her face should be covered with a distorted computer image, to lessen the risk that it will turn someone to stone. Her voice, and the ideas her voice expresses, are hideous as well.
Keith O says
You forgot her hideous heart and soul!
SC says
Just another day in the democrat party. The first amendment gives her an irrefutable right to be honest about the total Amorality of the moslem cult. Surprised the rest of the Democrat moslems didnt back her. Clearly they must be the moderate sort. You know the gutless ones.

According to the UN rape is already a war crime;
“Some examples of prohibited acts include: murder; mutilation, cruel treatment and torture; taking of hostages; intentionally directing attacks against the civilian population; intentionally directing attacks against buildings dedicated to religion, education, art, science or charitable purposes, historical monuments or hospitals; pillaging; rape, sexual slavery, forced pregnancy or any other form of sexual violence; conscripting or enlisting children under the age of 15 years into armed forces or groups or using them to participate actively in hostilities.”
You will notice how the commands of the Qur’an like sexual slavery is already a war crime.
Congress woman Tlaib has therefore faced a very difficult problem;
By voting for the resolution she would vote against the commands of the Holy Qur’an and even worse she would risk to appear sympathetic to the condemnable, dirty Jewish women. She of course couldn’t do neither.
How can this monster remain in Congress?
ploome says
Tlaib speaks for her constituents. They all (and all muslims) think like she does.
Rarely says
She’s my entire argument to restrict immigration.

How did her sister Ilhan vote? I’m surprised that she didn’t vote “present” like Rashida
somehistory says
i elmi, alias omar, didn’t vote. She wasn’t the only dem to not vote.
The surprise, several repubs didn’t vote either.
࿗Infidel࿘ says

Response to Rarely
somehistory says
We know why the double-ugly mozlum didn’t vote yes. The question is; why did so many reps not vote at all?
Do they approve of hamas, of rape, or any and all things mozlums do in waging war?
Do they believe that if they don’t vote at all, no one will know they didn’t vote?
What about the resolution was there not to like?
Keith O says
Tlaib didn’t vote either way because she can’t get her head around the concept of rape.
This is because part of her realises that nobody, sane or not would get a hardon for her.
Hell, even a serial rapist lifer in maximum security wouldn’t touch her.

Creatures like her are part of the idiotic deal that comes with letting Muslims, and islam is obviously the enemy of all civilsed values, into your country. You get enough of the Muslim enemy in an area and they vote in evil pieces of shit like this Tlaib into your parliament. The Hungarians and a few other countries won’t have to put up with this crap because they don’t let Muslims in and this type of trouble never begins. In most of our western countries, we have to put up with shitheads like this fouling up our parliaments. The dopiest decision ever is inviting the barbaric Muslim enemy into your country.islam is all about wanting to rag us all back to the darkest of dark ages where we all get to live like 7th century Arab knuckle draggers..
Keith O says
You know Tim, I have always wondered what a world taken over by mudslimes would look like and have come to the conclusion that they would turn on each other like rabid rats for not being Islamic enough and that would result in the end of humanity as we know it.
The dark ages would seem like a period of great enlightenment in comparison.
tim gallagher says
I suspect that that is exactly what would happen, Keith O. If islam was ever to win and the barbaric, primitive load of crap that islam is was imposed on us all i think that life would not be worth living, it would be hideous, and then, as you say, the Muslims, as they often seem to do, like the Sunnis and the shiite version of islam do, would rip into one another. I don’t see it happening for a hell of a long time, but I am certain of one thing and that is that, without islam fouling humanity up, life would be a thousand times better. It has nothing good, nothing of value, to offer the human race. It has brought nothing but evil barbarism, murderous violence and suffering for 1400 years. It is like Nazism but has been around for so much longer.
abu taleb says
Not just in Congress, but also in the White House, Hollywood, public schools etc.
Or probably worse than barbarians, do barbarians mutilate their children and kill their unborn children? I dont think so..
OLD GUY says
This is what you get when you allow muslims into your country. Their entire religion and education is geared to domination over non-muslim/islamic people. After all THEY ARE THE BEST OF THE HUMAN RACE.
