CHUMLEY Rashida Tlaib gets smackdown from Kevin McCarthy - - washtimes If it hadn’t been for the Republican majority — if it hadn’t been for McCarthy’s resolute leadership on this matter — Tlaib, who’s of Palestinian descent, would have been handed the…
Rep. Rashida Tlaib was planning to host an event at the Capitol Visitor Center that by its very name — “Nakba Day,” a mourning of the “catastrophe” called the creation of the Israel state — was anti-Semitic. Then House Speaker Kevin McCarthy came alongside her and sat down beside her and said, no, nope, not gonna happen. He canceled the event and in its place, scheduled a ceremony to honor America’s historic friendship with Israel.
That a sitting member of Congress — a tax paid servant of the American people — would be involved in such an event is travesty enough. But to hold it at the Capitol Visitor Center ratchets the disgust level. That’s akin to a congressional stamp of approval. That’s a statement that America stands for anti-Semitism.The Palestinian people were part of an armed attack against Israel, with an end game of wiping out the Jewish people.
