How does one criticise Israeli gov policy towards Palestinians without being labelled anti-Semitic? This is a discussion America needs to have like yesterday.
In our conversation today, Congresswoman Omar and I agreed that we must use this moment to move forward as we reject anti-Semitism in all forms. https://goo.gl/isKX97 pic.twitter.com/1Z6rH65e3M

All she said was that a powerful lobbying group had undo influence over politicians which is something progressives say all the time. Why does this change just because the lobbying group tries to co-opt Jewishness?

She should be removed from the House Foreign Affairs Committee.

I'll agree as long as the president is removed from office as well.

And Steve King, and Mitch McConnel.

Steve, yes. McConnell, no.

@AIPAC's website says, ""Commit to giving political contributions in a clearly pro-Israel context to candidates running for the United States House of Representatives and/or United States Senate". Are AIPAC themselves anti-semites or is it only wrong when Ilhan repeats it? -
Yes, it's only wrong when Ilhan repeats it. Or Rashida. So far, Betty McCollum hasn't taken too much heat. Wonder why.

It's a great mystery of the universe! I just can't put my finger on it.

The billions that is given to Israel in aids is funneled back to US through the AIPAC to fund the congress representatives for their Israel loyalty. Closed circle

Oligarchy in action. $ donated to campaign, politician returns payment w/legislation benefiting donor, lather, rinse, repeat. AIPAC is no different than the NRA, Nat'l Beef Council, etc., There are lives at stake in Gaza however which our leadership is conveniently neglecting.

No, you need to fire her. You want to be the party of “political correctness” that’s supposedly against “racism” in all its forms....then you make an example and fire her. Because we all know that you would CERTAINLY demand a Republican should be in the same scenario.

Have you been under a rock? Don’t demand other people do stuff for you....look yourself.

You don’t even understand what was just said

If we are going to start giving Israel a pass for its abuses where does that stop? Are we going to stop Critizing the DNK and Iran? How about CAR or Kenya. When people murder people over race we are duty bound to speak out!
