Following yet another reportedly “anti-semitic” remark by Minnesota Congresswoman Ilhan Omar, one of two Muslim women elected to Congress last fall, Democrats in the House are reportedly planning a resolution to officially condemn anti-semitism (which these days seems to be any form of Israel bashing), and could vote on the measure as soon as Wednesday, according to Bloomberg.
The resolution was written over the weekend in a collaboration between staffers from the offices of Nancy Pelosi, Steny Hoyer Eliot Engel and Jerry Nadler, though one aid said the text hadn’t been finalized, and another aid no final decisions about the measure had been made.
Omar was first accused of using an anti-semitic trope in a now-deleted tweet about pro-Israel money in US politics. During the fallout from that tweet, Omar was widely condemned by Republicans and Democrats, and President Trump even demanded that she resign. In a second incident, Omar tweeted on Sunday about needing to “pledge allegiance” to Israel to serve in Congress.
Our democracy is built on debate, Congresswoman! I should not be expected to have allegiance/pledge support to a foreign country in order to serve my country in Congress or serve on committee. The people of the 5th elected me to serve their interest. I am sure we agree on that! https://t.co/gglAS4FVJW

While her tweets have drawn widespread condemnation from most of the American political establishment, the anti-Israel faction of the American left has embraced her, arguing that her tweets weren’t anti-semitic and that she was simply criticizing the foreign policy of Netanyahu-led Israel, as well as the two-party consensus of unquestioning support for Israel.
As staffers finish work on the resolution, there has been intense debate about whether to specifically castigate Omar. Earlier this year, the House passed a similar resolution condemning “white nationalism” following controversial remarks by Iowa Republican Steve King.
“During the fallout from that tweet, Omar was widely condemned by Republicans and Democrats, and President Trump even demanded that she resign.”
Not gonna happen.
She’s been put there for JUST this reason… to get the ball rolling on the BULLSH#T ANTI-SEMITISM LAWS they already have written (in stone, no doubt).
Then come the Noahide Laws.
“… her tweets weren’t anti-semitic and that she was simply criticizing the foreign policy of Netanyahu-led Israel, as well as the two-party consensus of unquestioning support for Israel.”
In other words… THE TRUTH IS VERBOTEN.
“Earlier this year, the House passed a similar resolution condemning “white nationalism” following controversial remarks by Iowa Republican Steve King.”
Know what, SCUMBAGS???
THIS COUNTRY WAS FOUNDED BY WHITES, IT’S A MAJORITY OF WHITES (for now, anyway), THAT’S NOT RACIST – IT’S REALITY, AND IF YOU jEWB#TCH @SSWIPES GOT A PROBLEM WITH THAT… GO F%&K YOURSELVES!!!!!
