View Full Version : Pro-Israel House Dems Will Introduce A Measure Condemning The BDS Movement

Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi may find herself in the middle of an intra-party conflict as early as next week, as a group of powerful House Democrats led by House Judiciary Chairman Jerry Nadler (D-NY) is planning to introduce a measure condemning the global, anti-Semitic "boycott-divest-sanction" (or BDS) movement that calls for countries, corporations, and individuals to cut Israel off economically.

Several House members, including Reps. Ilhan Omar (D-MN) and Rashida Tlaib (D-MI), are vocal supporters of the BDS movement, and while other younger, more progressive Democrats haven't spoken on the issue specifically, they're likely to be at least sympathetic to the cause.

But Nadler and Rep. Brad Schneider (D-IL) told Politico (https://www.politico.com/story/2019/03/21/aipac-bds-democrats-1231135) that they believe the time has come for the House to make a real statement in support of America's ally, Israel, and they believe the anti-BDS bill is the right way to do it.


"In a letter to colleagues Thursday, Nadler and Schneider described the global attempt to economically isolate Israel as an 'overly-simplistic and one-sided approach,' Politico reported.


“Its goal is Israel’s elimination, not the criticism of any particular policy of Israel,” the pair says about the BDS movement — a statement that is certain to make both Omar and Tlaib bristle.


Omar has regularly expressed support for BDS since being elected, though she claimed on the campaign trail that she had no love for the movement. Haaretz reported (https://www.haaretz.com/us-news/muslim-trailblazer-ilhan-omar-admits-she-backs-bds-1.6654634), shortly after Omar's election, that a spokesperson with her campaign told a website called "MuslimGirl" that Omar fully backed BDS, and that "she has fought to make sure people’s right to support it isn’t criminalized."

Tlaib is so passionate about BDS that she unleashed the historically anti-Semitic "dual loyalty" smear against her Congressional colleagues in the Senate when an anti-BDS bill came up for a vote there earlier this year. At the time, The Daily Wire (https://www.dailywire.com/news/41866/dem-rashida-tlaib-unleashes-anti-semitic-slur-emily-zanotti) reported that Tlaib tweeted:

It should be against the law for any lawmaker to have dual citizenships of US and America! Such as the nEOCON gang has!

The BDS is not anti-Semitic, which would mean hatred against Isreal. It is common for Repug politicians to pledge to AIPAC so they can get their bribe money supporting everything Israel. And Boycotts are not illegal!

The real issue here is Israel's APARTHEID POLICIES of EXCLUSION to Palestinians and extreme Zionism, and policy of LEBENSTRAUM, of annexing land that is not theirs!Not to even mention the murder of Palestinian people and bombing of Syria and Lebannon's innocent people! The GAZA strip has become nothing but a giant concentration camp, with a slow GENOCIDE going on. This must stop! Bibi has no intention of any 2 state solution!

I have been saying this for years no person should be able to run for office if they are dual citizens no matter which country.

The BDS fascists want illegal aliens to vote.

Palestine is a part of Israel. A suburb of Jerusalem or Tel Aviv. It never has been and cannot be an independent nation.

No, that would be as sick as saying anyone who voted for Hillary must be an American.

Since the people living in that region are apparently devoted to the violent overthrow of the legally constituted state that is sovereign over that that territiry, they are obviously embedded seditious enemy aliens, and should be deported fir the safety of Israel.

In the US we call people like that Democrats, or Rodents.

I guess my point is that there is no palestine. Palestine is a unicorn as far as countries are concerned. It's make believe by a bunch of enemy combatants.

It is a play off Phoneticians, Canaanites, and possibly the Sea People. The Arab nomads who lived in that region when Israel was created have no relationship to the previous inhabitants.

What do you know about that because there is significant misinformation about the efficacy of Israel, about who really is and is not Israeli, who is and is not Jewish historically, who historical Jews actually are/were, who is Palestinian, and so forth? :)

A good book I recently read. Jerusalem Besieged. It covers 4000 years of history and ties the modern with the past.
