    You can’t simultaneously champion Israel as “the only liberal democracy in the Middle East” and then cheer when they ban foreign legislators purely on the grounds of political speech, which is the definition of illiberal

        Sure you can. Barring two foreign legislators, even if an illiberal decision, doesn't annul the basic character of the state.

        No you can’t. Can’t pick and choose when to be democratic and when to be autocratic.... doesn’t work that way.

        They didn’t want to visit Israel, they wanted to visit Palestine. That is what the put on their travel documents.

        The UK & EU are doing the same thing. Really the US is one of the few places left where free speech is completely protected.

        If someone wants to be invited into a place, the last thing they should do is continually bad mouth the host and, in the case of Israel, escalate the enmity already there. The 2 squad members apparently don't know "we come in peace" in their vernacular.
