Tlaib's Support For Genocide Even Gets Nessel To Notice

Rashida Tlaib, as is her wont, lies, and lies a lot when it comes to Israel.

She recently ran an twitter video that includes Michigan Arab protestors chanting "From the River to the Sea".

So, what's between the Jordan River and the Mediterranean Sea?  Israel. 

From The River to the Sea (in Arabic from the water to the Water) has always been a call for the destruction of Israel. It was a slogan begin by the PLO and then picked up by Hamas.

Tlaib, being caught out echoing calls for genocide then quickly lied:

The Detroit News: Tlaib's defense of Palestinian chant prompts Nessel to call for retraction]

On Friday, Tlaib posted a video on the social platform X in which she said President Joe Biden's support of Israel would cost him reelection in 2024, accused him in a lettered overlay of supporting "the genocide of the Palestinian people" and showed protesters in Michigan yelling the slogan "from the river to the sea!" The Detroit Democrat called for Biden to support an immediate cease-fire.

The lone Palestinian-American in Congress linked that tweet to another one that explained what she said she meant by "from the river to the sea" — which refers to from the Jordan River to the Mediterranean Sea, or the land between the bodies of water that includes Israel.

"From the river to the sea is an aspirational call for freedom, human rights, and peaceful coexistence, not death, destruction, or hate," she tweeted Friday. "My work and advocacy is always centered in justice and dignity for all people no matter faith or ethnicity."

This is so absolutely false that even her fellow Michigan progressive Democrat Attorney General Dana Nessel called her on her BS. 

Note that her comic buddy and confidante Amer Zahr wears a sweatshirt that has all of Israel replaced with a Arab Keffiyah, and remember that he wiped Israel off the map in Tlaib's office on her first day in Congress.

Tlaib knows exactly what "From the river to the sea" means. Indeed we'll note she retweeted a "From the river to the sea" call back in November 2020, before broadcasting her own a couple days ago - she later deleted it when called out on it.

She's and other fellow-travelers are hoping she can cover a call for genocide that she supports by dissimulation and hoping you don't know what it actually means.

All this makes me wonder how she got elected. Who ran against her? Cookie monster?

Chuck Pergiel: It's a solid completely safe Democrat district. It includes Dearborn with a majority of Arabs and Muslims there. She won it in a walk with 70% of the vote.

Aint that the truth.

Just a tasee of what is to come I am afraid. As long as the residents of Dearbornistan (And other muslim heavy areas) continue to outbreed the native population, its only going to get worse.

I was born in Dearborn & lived there for my first 13 years. it sad for me to go there these days. There is little left of my home town.
