Paging Pelosi: Democrats Blame Israel For Defending Itself From Palestinian Terrorists

Rashida Tlaib Attacks Israel as Palestinian Terrorists Kill Civilians — Including Muslim Arab Israeli

Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-MI) tweeted an attack on Israel on Sunday even as Palestinian terrorists fired hundreds of rockets at Israeli civilians, bringing the death toll to four — including, ironically, a Muslim Arab citizen of Israel.

Tlaib was responding to, and agreeing with, anti-Israel activist Yousef Munayyer, who had criticized a New York Times headline that read: “Gaza Militants Fire 250 Rockets, and Israel Responds with Airstrikes.” (The Times evidently prefers to avoid the word “terrorists” when dealing with Palestinians who murder Israelis.) That was unacceptable to Munayyer, who complained that Israel had started the violence by shooting “unarmed Palestinian protesters in Gaza.”

The “protesters” were attacking Israel’s border: “Some burned tires and threw rocks and incendiary devices, and some attempted to sabotage the border fence,” UPI reported. Previous “protests” have been organized by the Hamas terror group — which, according to the United Nations, violently suppresses actual protests against its violent rule in Gaza.

Still, for Tlaib, describing the fact that Palestinians had sparked the present conflict meant “dehumanizing” them: “When will the world stop dehumanizing our Palestinian people who just want to be free? Headlines like this & framing it in this way just feeds into the continued lack of responsibility on Israel who unjustly oppress & target Palestinian children and families,” she tweeted. She concluded with “#FreePalestine” — a slogan usually used in connection with the destruction of Israel, an ambition that Tlaib shareswith Hamas and other Palestinian radicals.

While it had been Rep. Ilhan Omar who caused a lot of headaches for Majority Leader Nancy Pelosi with her anti-Semitism a few months back, Rashida Tlaib was essentially her side-kick on hating Israel and hating Jews. Speaking of Ilhan

That’s a Blame Israel mentality when

Unlike Palestinian terrorists, who have a long history of both targeting civilians in Israel and hiding behind civilians in Gaza, the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) target terrorists and try to avoid civilian casualties on both sides of the conflict.

And the IDF responds to attacks from Palestinian terrorists, it doesn’t start them (she also retweeted an Obama bro who is blaming Trump while defending Iran). Tlaib and Omar are basically saying that any Israeli reaction to Palestinian’s attacking civilians is not OK, that Palestinians have a right to kill Jews. How is Pelosi going to clean this one up?

Further, Israel does not occupy Gaza. They pulled out in 2005. Hamas occupies Gaza. But, consider, the policies towards Gaza are a joint Israel-Egypt policy: why do these Jew haters not include Egypt in their rants? Right, Jew hatred.

You aren’t wrong.

    This is entirely the Israelis’ fault, because they have proven themselves to be piss-poor conquerors. If they wanted to keep Gaza, Judea and Samaria, they should have forcibly expelled all of the Arabs living therein by 1968 at the latest.

    Instead, they simply made life there more uncomfortable, counting on this to encourage the Arabs to emigrate. They should have realized, from their own experience, that discrimination and poor conditions didn’t push that many Jews to emigrate from Europe.

    Now, it’s too late. Oh, physically they could still steamroller in and evict every last Arab from Gaza, but the political situation will no longer allow it. What they could have done and should have done immediately after conquering the land is no longer an option.
