The new set of Omar lies, tweeted after the US election,
included the blood libel that Israel is ethnically
cleansing the Palestinians, accusing the Jewish State of "leaving an
entire community homeless in direct violation of international law."
As a member of the US Foreign Affairs Committee, Omar is
using these blatant lies in an attempt to condition a possible incoming Biden
Administration into stopping US aid to the Jewish state or, in her words, that
America "should not bankroll Israel's actions."
In a French article, Omar twisted truth by avoiding mention
of Palestinian Islamist terror groups including Hamas, Palestinian Islamic
Jihad, Salafists, as well as the more secular PLO and PLFP, by characterizing
them as "victims."
Should Biden become President, and the Democrats take the
Senate, and with this party still dominating the House, malevolent anti-Semites
led by Omar and Rashida Tlaib will be the ones setting American foreign policy,
actively promoting devious regimes such as Somalia, the Muslim Brotherhood, and
anti-Israel regimes that will set the Middle East back to the bad pre-Trump era
of uncertainty and violence.
Major Jewish organizations in America, be they "progressive"
or not, must recalibrate their outdated thinking and rally round Israel by
committing to face down any expressions or acts of anti-Semitism emanating from
Congress, or from other segments of American society, including the Nation of
Islam, Black Lies Matter, CAIR, or the Islamic Society of North America.
We Israelis expect American Jewry to become more vocal in
confronting anti-Semites, especially and particularly if they come from
individuals and groups who actively supported the political party of their
choice.
