Any new update on this NPR? Why is it so hard for you to tell the full story?

This story needs to die

davematt88 After they disrespected her. I don’t want anything from someone who wants to control me either.

They should shove that offer.

All or none.

This is a mistake. Rep. TIaib is working to wipe Israel off the map.

NPR must be in tears after hearing the humanitarian gesture by their beloved Israel for allowing Palestinians considered Terrorist by NPR to visit her ageing grandma you should have a documentary on this

How very big of them. This was a reprehensible & telling act of subjugation by both Trump and Netanyahu. Anyone who favors their own freedom should show support for RepRashida & Ilhan

Then do not ask the taxpayers to pay for this RashidaTlaib

They caved. What a damn shame!

She is a representative of her constituents, Israel. As an American jew whose husband served in the Israeli army, whose dad served in US Navy, whose grandparents were labor Zionists with Golda Meir in Milwaukee: our reps SHOULD visit our ally.

Isreal has disrespected the United States and we should withhold any $$ until there is an apology and both members of Congress are allowed to enter the country

melpriceHB Backpedaling this bad idea has begun. Soon it will be 'We only _request_ they keep their opposition to prevailing Israeli policies _polite_.'

This does not fix the problem of gross disrespect to US Congress.

My suspicion is that Tlaib is lying, and that she will attempt to make political statements including promoting a boycott while there. If she does, she should be dragged kicking and screaming out of Israel and left in the Gaza Strip. No flight home.

I am happy she is able to see her 90 year old Grandmother. But as a Jew, I am appalled the Apartheid State of Israel isn't welcoming both our Congresswomen into the country. It is appalling they call themselves a Democracy. Netanyahu & Trump are frauds and enemies of democracy

If all she wanted to do is visit her Grabdma that should suffice but I suspect she is full of shit

What about IlhanMN Israel? She is a duly elected representative of our nation..

That’s a non-invite invite by Israel. They are still preventing RashidaTlaib from traveling to Israel as a member of a US congressional delegation. Tlaib is a US House member and should be recognized as such by the Israeli gov’t. IlhanOmar

IsraeliPM is a puppet of realDonaldTrump . Israel should be embarrassed.

I thought the Democraps have been talking repeatedly about repercussions from what Trump says, well these are the repercussions from what they have been saying. But, they were not reprimanded, or called out by name.

JulE4422 can they keep her?

ResistProfessor Fucking half measures don't cut it.

What happened to Russian collusion & Mueller The hypocrisy of the leftist media is shameful.

Her access should be as a congresswoman.

and the other one as a hostage

Smart move and a trap for RashidaTlaib If she reject it,then it will prove that she only cares about the political shaw; does bot care about her grandmother. But if she agree,then her visit will fail to cause the damage she aims to inflict on Israel AvichayAdraee Israelipm_ar

Why are you lying? It’s not a reversal of decision. Israel’s initial statement said that would consider a humanitarian request if submitted. I wonder what your purpose is for lying about the worlds only Jewish state?

Someone will have to explain to me how a person temporarily severs their identity so as not to offend the foreign ethnopatriarchs persecuting their family—particularly when the identity in question is to represent the principles of freedom and equality?

This is a show of weakness!

A mistake!

Why Why allow asnake among the eggs Israel has madea baddecision here’

Men will be tyrants if left to their own means; he has no choice he would be breaking law

Remove BDS terrorist from Earth.

Cut funding immediately

What the hell is, “Israeli-occupied?” I think you just mean the West Bank. Try a little harder to not expose your antipathy for Israel.

Ha. Holy shit what a clusterfuck.

No. It didn't reverse the ban. It gave her limited access to her family on humanitarian grounds. She will not be here as part of a delegation, nor will she have an official standing. One mistake, and she's out.

How kind of them. 😑

She put 'Palestine' on her request. Should be denied since Palestine doesn't exist.

NPR Choice pageKOT Such a project can pay our national debts within 10 years, if adopted and managed well. It critically needs be legalized worldwide. That's a bummer that they can't better cohabitate. I wonder what it is that requires pesticide being kept off of cannabis, it can't be cleansed like other crops?
