    -The Israeli government said Thursday it would bar two Democratic congresswomen who support the Palestinian-led boycott movement from entering the country, a move that drew swift rebukes from Democratic leaders in Congress as well as the leading pro-Israel lobbying group in the U.S.

    Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said the country's interior minister had decided to deny entry to Reps. Rashida Tlaib of Michigan and Ilhan Omar of Minnesota, who were scheduled to visit next week. He said he supported the decision.

    "As a free and vibrant democracy, Israel is open to critics and criticism, with one exception: Israeli law prohibits the entry into Israel of those who call for and work to impose boycotts on Israel," Netanyahu said in a statement. "Congresswomen Tlaib and Omar are leading activists in promoting the legislation of boycotts against Israel in the American Congress."

    Good for Netanyahu.

    ...a move that drew swift rebukes from Democratic leaders in Congress as well as the leading pro-Israel lobbying group in the U.S.

    This is what gets me. Pro-Israel lobbying group rebuking it too. And the Dems and liberals seriously can't see their hypocrisy in condemning this?


    "It would show great weakness if Israel allowed Rep. Omar and Rep.Tlaib to visit," Mr. Trump wrote. "They hate Israel & all Jewish people, & there is nothing that can be said or done to change their minds. Minnesota and Michigan will have a hard time putting them back in office. They are a disgrace!"

    I'm so glad the President encouraged the prevention of these two hateful females being allowed to visit Israel. Wonder how they feel, now that their evil plans have backfired on them? lol This is what they deserve for trying to have Israel boycotted.

    The AIPAC crowd has long been a strange crowd. I believe they are becoming less relevant

    Well now, isn't this interesting. Tlaib claimed that the trip was all about seeing her 90 year old grandmother, so, Israel extended a peace branch and said they would allow her entry after all but she had to sign a pledge to not promote boycotts against Israel. Guess what happened...

    Of course. It never was about anything but their anti-Israel agenda.

    There is probably not a single honest American Patriot who even wants the two of them here, so why would Israel want them to bring their brand of POISON over there?
