Omar, Tlaib to host afternoon news conference on Israel travel restrictions

ST. PAUL, Minn. — Democratic U.S. Reps. Ilhan Omar of Minnesota and Rashida Tlaib of Michigan plan to host a news conference Monday afternoon on travel restrictions to Israel and Palestine, after they were denied entry into Israel last week.

Before Israel's decision, Trump tweeted it would be a"show of weakness" to allow the two representatives in. Israel controls entry and exit to the West Bank, which it seized in the 1967 Mideast war along with east Jerusalem and the Gaza Strip — territories the Palestinians want for a future state. Tlaib and Omar are known as supporters of"boycott, divestment and sanctions," or BDS, a Palestinian-led global movement. Supporters say the movement is a nonviolent way of protesting Israel's military rule over the occupied territories, but Israel says it aims to delegitimize the state and eventually wipe it off the map.

Freedom-raping witches.

Those 2 could bring down the Democratic Party DNC ... and that’s a fact !SpeakerPelosi RepJerryNadler

Surely they can get a one way ticket to Palestine!

“Here are the ridiculous restrictions they gave, well you will see how unbelievable they are”.. 1. No suicide vests...wow! 2. No explosive chemicals of any kind...give us a break! 3. No poster board or permanent markers...seriously? 4. No joke books like 101 Jew Jokes...come on!

maybe Talib can explain why she hates Israel more than she wants to see her grandmother. this could have been her last opportunity and she turned it down.

I can't wait. This will be classic. Ilhan will be growling when she rants and tlaib will be shouting racist comments at reporters when it gets upset.

Don't feel bad they are banned. Support their enemies, what do you expect? I wouldn't let them in my home if they support my enemies.
