Op-ed: 
Omar and Tlaib...Siding With The Enemy Yet Again
By: Diane Sori / The Patriot Factor / Right Side Patriots on American Political Radio

“Once again, Israel faces a barrage of deadly rocket attacks by terrorist groups Hamas and Islamic Jihad. We support Israel 100% in its defense of its citizens…To the Gazan people — these terrorist acts against Israel will bring you nothing but more misery. END the violence and work towards peace – it can happen!” 
- President Donald Trump's message to the “Gazan” people not the “Palestinian” people...take note

When someone runs for office in these United States one is supposed to not only have America's best interests at heart but that of her allies as well. When someone runs for office in these United States one is not supposed to vocally, in print or online come out and support U.S. terrorist designated groups nor raise money for said groups. And when someone runs for office in these United States one takes an oath to uphold the entirety of the Constitution...not pick and choose the parts they want to uphold.

And yet there are two women who are doing just that as well as using their 15 minutes of “political infamy” to not only outwardly side with an enemy against both America and her staunchest ally Israel, but who have picked up Barack HUSSEIN Obama's proverbial knife to continue on with his self-initiated stabbing of Israel in the back. And they're doing so no matter that their political higher-ups have “politely” suggested they stop.

So it's now come down to a game of words...or should I say twitter fingers...as both newly elected Reps. Ilhan Omar and Rashida Tlaib have not reigned in their predominantly anti-Israel comments and sentiments. Knowing well that there is now a different set of rules for muslims in these United States...as in say as you wish with America's allegiances be damned and do so knowing you won't be stopped...means those in power fear that both you and those vile sorts you support will do unto them the very violent actions you so happily condone they do unto Israel.

And really, if not fear of muslim reprisal here in the U.S...fear of our streets running “red” with we infidel's blood...why else would these two muslimas still be sitting in the halls of our government spewing out their traitorous rhetoric against an ally when there are legalities in place to "expel" them both from Congress.

Simply, both Ilhan Omar and Rashida Tlaib are Muslim Brotherhood and Hamas operatives who have made it clear that they support Iranian backed terrorists in their almost daily onslaught against Israel as well as heralding their support for Yassir Arafat's made-up people known as “Palestinians.” And on May 5th, Omar, in an attempt to justify Hamas's attack on Israel, tweeted while Israel was being bombarded by what amounted to roughly 700 Hamas rocket attacks against its civilian populations and cities that, and I quote: “How many more protesters must be shot, rockets must be fired, and little kids must be killed until the endless cycle of violence ends? The status quo of occupation and humanitarian crisis in Gaza is unsustainable. Only real justice can bring about security and lasting peace.”

Really Omar, how's this for truth about your “cycles of violence”...in the past year alone, besides rocket attacks, Israel’s southern communities have endured a barrage of incendiary devices being launched from Gaza including balloons filled with explosives... balloons that have burned fields, greenhouses and homes...balloons causing untold destruction, hardship, injuries and even death.

In fact, the President of the American Islamic Forum For Democracy, Dr. Zuhdi Jasser, a truly moderate muslim, has publicly criticized Ilhan Omar for her recent tweets regarding Hamas' renewed violence against Israel. Recently on Fox News program 'America’s Newsroom,' Jasser stated that, “She needs to look at her own talking points. If she truly is about universal human rights and humanitarianism, there’s no cycle. This is started and can be ended by Hamas’s terrorist actions.” Adding that,“My question to her is if she cares about Muslim civil rights and cares about humanitarianism, then why doesn’t she call for them to stop the violence? Why doesn’t she call for an Arab Spring in the Palestinian areas against their tyrants which are Hamas and call for a new peaceful leadership?...And, unfortunately, there’s nothing that Israel or America can do right. And, no matter what terrorists like Hamas do, she will continue to apologize for them.” 

 

And how right Dr. Jasser is for Ilhan Omar conveniently forgets that it's always Hamas... Iran's proxy Hamas...who initiates such attacks against Israel not Israel against Hamas or against those living in Gaza. Also, Omar forgets or doesn't care that in 1997 the U.S. declared Hamas a “foreign terrorist organization,” and that in 2007, Hamas' Ahmad Bah, the then-acting speaker of the Palestinian Legislative Council, publicly stated that Hamas' intention was to destroy America and “call on allah to annihilate every American.” 
 

Now add in that Canada, Egypt and the European Union have also designated Hamas a terrorist group with even Jordan...minus the actual designation...banning Hamas from its country. And the U.K., Australia and New Zealand have specifically designated Hamas’ military wing...cowards always covering their faces...as a terror group, and that's in addition to Saudi Arabia banning not only Hamas itself but their parent organization, the ever infamous Muslim Brotherhood, as well.

And Ilhan Omar knows...as do we all...that it's Iran who directly backs and arms Hamas militarily, financially and politically. Yet Omar remains unusually silent to National Security Adviser John Bolton announcing on Sunday, May 5th...the second day of the newest Israeli/Gaza conflict...that the U.S. is deploying the USS Abraham Lincoln Carrier Strike Group and a bomber task force to the U.S. Central Command region, a region which includes the Middle East. Adding that the move was in response to “a number of troubling and escalatory indications and warnings” and that “unrelenting force” will meet “any attack on U.S. interests or those of its allies”...allies being Israel...surely helped shut Omar's mouth now didn't it.

Now as for avowed Palestinian mouthpiece Rashida Tlaib...she also took to tweeter on May 5th, in response to a New York Times, May 4th article, Gaza Militants Fire 250 Rockets, and Israel Responds with Airstrikes. Saying the article and most especially the title promotes a “lack of responsibility on Israel,” Tlaib ignores that Israel has every right to defend herself against this or any rocket attacks against its civilian populations. And I quote Tlaib's own words, “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.” 
 
“Lack of responsibility on Israel's part”...Rashida Tlaib knows nothing about which she speaks. How so...here are but four key facts:

1. When Israel pulled out of Gaza in 2005 in an effort to bring some semblance of peace to the region, the Jewish farmers left their greenhouses and hothouses intact in order to help aid the Gazans...notice I called them what Trump called them...in what could have been a profitable food stuffs business just as it had been for the Jewish farmers. But instead of feeding the people and realizing what a gift this was, Hamas operatives burnt down said greenhouses and hothouses as well as synagogues, thus taking food and monies out of their own people's pockets and mouths and by denial putting it into theirs alone.
2. After Israel vacated Gaza, they still continued to supply goods, services, and medical supplies to the people of Gaza even after they, in a supposedly “democratic election,” chose to be governed by terrorists...by Hamas. And yet even while the current rocket barrage was ongoing Israel allowed key fuel shipments from Israel into Gaza to “avoid a humanitarian crisis”...how's that for taking “responsibility” Ms. Tlaib.
   
3. Over these many years numerous countries have sent huge amounts of both economic and humanitarian aid into Gaza...we're talking hundreds of millions of dollars in such aid. But the people never received that aid...instead seeing both monies and aid being “stolen by Hamas”... ”stolen” to be used to help fund its propaganda machine and its terrorist operations against Israel. In fact, just last month Hamas forcibly shut down Gazan protests by those who were marching against the misuse of said economic and humanitarian aid...misuse regarding terrorism infrastructures, government corruption, and payoffs.
   
4. Both Tlaib and Omar must stop whining that Gaza is an “occupied territory” for to be “occupied” one has to be not only living under the control of the “occupier” but the “occupier” must have a physical presence in said territory...Israel has neither. In fact, not a single Jew or Israeli lives in Gaza as the 10,000+ Jews who were living in Gaza were relocated elsewhere in 2005, “ethnically cleansing” Jews from Gaza if you will. Since then Gaza has been under total control of Hamas (and its puppet master Iran), hence it is not an Israeli "occupied territory.” All that has or has not happened in Gaza is the sole responsibility of Hamas...period.
   

And a few other things neither Ilhan Omar nor Rashida Tlaib will like regarding Hamas' latest attack on Israel. First, Saudi Arabia's leading “intellectuals and journalists” have once again openly sided with Israel against Hamas* as they expressed hope for Israel's “safety and victory”... yes...”victory.” And by their verbally attacking Hamas and its policies...most especially its firing rockets into Israel's civilian areas...these Saudis have laid the blame directly on Hamas, not Israel, for all the problems in Gaza. Some even went so far as to say that Hamas was acting on direct orders from Tehran and that such actions were most likely a misplaced form of retaliation for Trump's May 3rd tightening of sanctions on Iran.

Second, on May 5th in response to both Omar's and Tlaib's tweets, Iranian-born now Australian Shia Imam Mohamad Tawhidi (@Imamofpeace), President of the Islamic Association of South Australia, called both these women out by name saying that, “Remember that time @Ilhan and @RashidaTlaib condemned Hamas’ terrorism? Neither do I.” Seems like some of their own brethren are now seeing the danger these two muslimas pose to peace in the region, and yet both remain sitting in the halls of Congress.

So while Israel continues to forge new friendships and alliances with key Arab nations and even with some of islam's more “moderate” religious leaders, Israel’s ambassador to the U.N. Danny Danon recently stated in regards to this latest altercation that killed four Israelis, “Iran was behind everything” which is happening in the Middle East. 

And shock of all shocks even the E.U. and the U.N. are now condemning Hamas as well as Islamic Jihad...yet another Gaza-based terrorist group with direct ties to Iran. And why also Islamic Jihad...because Islamic Jihad has said they will "not abide by any ceasefire agreement" vowing instead to “shoot missiles” directly into Tel Aviv. 
 

In fact, not only did U.N. Secretary-General Antonio Guterres state that he "condemns in the strongest terms the launching of rockets from Gaza into Israel, particularly the targeting of civilian population centers," but European Union Foreign Policy Chief Federica Mogherini has also called for a halt to Hamas' "indiscriminate rocket attacks"  being launched from Gaza. And surprisingly, Germany's deputy government spokesperson, one Ulrike Demmer, said the German government strongly condemns Hamas' attacks on Israel adding that, "Israel has the right to defend it's security and respond appropriately to attacks.”

So as it stands now as I write this article, last Monday, May 6th, Egypt once again brokering a ceasefire between Israel and Hamas...their eighth ceasefire within a year's time. And while Egypt's intentions are honorable such ceasefires always seems to mean in the end that, “Israel ceases and Hamas fires.” 

And Islamic Jihad's newest threat has led Israeli Prime Minister Benyamin Netanyahu to issue a statement that “the campaign is not over yet” and that “the IDF was continuing preparations for military action in Gaza”... actions I believe are long overdue especially since Iran wants Hamas to “up the pressure” on Israel.

And Ilhan Omar and Rashida Talib, via their tweets and hateful words of condemnation against Israel and not against the actions of Hamas, have now positioned themselves to be a direct detriment to both the United States and Israel. Traitorous actions if you ask me... actions counter to our Constitution. And if one cannot abide by the oath they took to uphold the Constitution...and that includes supporting our allies in this case Israel...then one needs to be “expelled” from Congress x two.

*The Saudi tweet translates as follows: “Our hearts are with you. May Allah protect Israel and its people. We will not let the treacherous hand of Iran and its agents in Gaza reach the Israeli people. It’s time to say this out loud: confronting the terror of Hamas is the responsibility of all the countries in the region and of the international community [as a whole], not only of Israel."
