During their brief time in Congress, Omar and Tlaib, the first two Muslim women elected to the House, have become well-known for their harsh criticisms of Israel’s government. Both are strong supporters of the Boycott, Divest, and Sanctions movement, also known as BDS, which proposes that governments and businesses shun Israel for its treatment of Palestinians and for building settlements in the West Bank, a practice forbidden by international law.
In 2017, Israel passed a widely criticized law dictating that anyone who supports the BDS movement could be blocked from entering the country.
WELL DONE
The level of implied destruction, toward President Donald Trump, in the eyes of these two liberally political women, speaks volumes to me. In fact, I simply cannot understand how they are entertained by anyone, even their own. DV
