    Trump calls on Ilhan Omar to resign from Congress for ‘anti-Semitism’
    February 12, 2019
    WASHINGTON (JTA) — President Donald Trump called on Rep. Ilhan Omar, D-Minn., to resign from Congress for what he said was her anti-Semitism.
    “It’s terrible what she said and I think she should either resign from Congress, or she should certainly resign from the House Foreign Affairs Committee,” Trump told reporters on Tuesday. “What she said is so deep-seated in her heart that her lame apology, and that’s what it was, it was lame and she didn’t mean a word of it, was just not appropriate. I think she should resign from Congress.”
    Omar, in her first term in the Congress, said Sunday on Twitter that the American Israel Public Affairs Committee pays lawmakers to be pro-Israel. After condemnations from Republicans and Democrats, including the Democratic leadership in the U.S. House of Representatives, she said she “unequivocally” apologized after speaking with “Jewish allies and colleagues who are educating me on the painful history of anti-Semitic tropes.”

    Trump calls on Ilhan Omar to resign from Congress for ‘anti-Semitism’
    February 12, 2019

    Rep. Ilhan Omar punches back at Trump: 'You have trafficked in hate your whole life'

    On Wednesday, she punched back, throwing the charge of prejudice at President Donald Trump.
    "You have trafficked in hate your whole life – against Jews, Muslims, Indigenous, immigrants, black people and more," she tweeted. "I learned from people impacted by my words. When will you?"
    Her tweet followed Trump's call for her to resign and Vice President Mike Pence's tweet that she should face consequences for her words, such as being removed from the House Foreign Affairs Committee.
    Not long after, she engaged in a tense exchange with Elliott Abrams, Trump's special envoy to Venezuela, during a committee hearing. Omar began by referencing Abrams' 1991 conviction for withholding information from Congress during the Iran-Contra scandal, an offense for which he was pardoned by President George H.W. Bush.
    “I fail to understand why members of this committee, or the American people, should find any testimony that you give today to be truthful," Omar told Abrams.
    As he tried to respond, Omar interrupted.
    "That was not a question," she said, before asking about his initial dismissal in 1982 of reports of massacres by Salvadoran army soldiers in the village of El Mozote.
    "Yes or no, do you think that massacre was a fabulous achievement that happened under our watch?" she asked.
    Abrams called it a "ridiculous question."
    "I am not going to respond to that kind of personal attack, which is not a question," he said.

    Rep Omar is back in news, from Drudge:



    Rep. Ilhan Omar criticized again for alleged anti-Semitism...


    ST. PAUL, Minn. (AP) — Rep. Ilhan Omar has come under fresh criticism for remarks critics call anti-Semitic.
    The Minnesota Democrat was appearing at a forum in Washington with Rep. Rashida Tlaib of Michigan when she said she fears everything they say about Israel is construed as anti-Semitic because they’re Muslim.
    But some Jewish leaders say Omar then revived an old trope about divided loyalties among Jewish-Americans when she criticized the idea that it’s “OK for people to push for allegiance to a foreign country.”
    Steve Hunegs of the Jewish Community Relations Council of Minnesota and the Dakotas says he’s appalled.
    Spokesman Jeremy Slevin says Omar was just speaking out Wednesday about “the undue influence of lobbying groups for foreign interests.” Slevin said Omar repeated her remorse for the pain that her previous comments caused.

    Hollywood fights back: Studios blacklist actress Penelope Cruz over Gaza genocide letter
    Rhys Blakely Los Angeles
    August 9 2014
    The Oscar-winning actors Javier Bardem and Penelope Cruz have fuelled furious divisions within Hollywood over the Gaza conflict by accusing Israel of committing “genocide” in the territory.
    Pledges to shun the Spanish actors – believed to have been made privately by a handful of top industry executives – came after Bardem and Cruz, who are married, signed an open letter denouncing “the genocide perpetrated by the Israeli occupation army”.

    I do not have a problem with Omar calling out one group or another. The thing I have a problem with is radical Islam and we know Omar comes from that background and Sharia law does not work with Liberty.

    More African/Mideast background people coming to US following Iraqi freedom/global interventions/Barack Hussein Obama election and increasing sharia infleunce etc are also an interesting discussion we could delve into separately. If MAGA regime remained on same interventions path as Bush-Cheney-AIPAC alliance, won't be too surprsing in coming years if someone looking like IO was sitting in White House again.

    I do not agree, but I think President Trump is looking beyond her rhetoric, IMHO.

    New York's MTA Launches Investigation of Anti-semitism over Measles Outbreak

    April 12, 2019 By Aiden Pink Drew Angerer/Getty Images...
    A man walks past school buses near the Yeshiva Kehilath Yakov School in the South Williamsburg neighborhood of Brooklyn, April 9, 2019.

    New York City has ordered all yeshivas in a heavily Orthodox Jewish section of Brooklyn to exclude from classes all students who aren’t vaccinated against measles, or face fines or possible closure. The order comes amid a recent outbreak of over 285 measles cases in Brooklyn and Queens, most of which have been concentrated in the Orthodox Jewish communities.

    New York’s Metropolitan Transit Authority is investigating a complaint from an Orthodox Jewish man who says he was discriminated against by a bus driver because of New York City’s measles epidemic, which is largely confined to the ultra-Orthodox community.
    The man said he was waiting at a bus stop in Brooklyn when the bus driver refused to stop the bus for him. He ran after the bus, and the driver eventually let him in while allegedly covering her face and saying “go in, measles.”
    The incident was reported by the United Jewish Organizations of Williamsburg, which is working with the city to curb the measles outbreak by educating the community and encouraging vaccination.
    Mayor Bill de Blasio weighed in on the incident. “Anti-Semitic discrimination has no place in our city,” he tweeted. “We’ve reached out to the MTA about this report and will make sure it is thoroughly investigated.”

    Michael Oren accuses ‘New Yorker’ of anti-Semitism for questioning Jewish right to move from US to West Bank

    Media Analysis James North and Philip Weiss on May 12, 2019 101 Comments


    Michael Oren in the Golan Heights. From his twitter feed in February 2019.

    This weekend everyone is talking about a revealing interview with Michael Oren by Isaac Chotiner in the New Yorker, titled, “Michael Oren cuts short a conversation about Israel.” The short version is that Oren, Israel’s former ambassador to the U.S. and deputy prime minister, just blew himself up.
    When Chotiner pressed Oren about the future of the two-state solution, Oren said Jews have an absolute right to settle in the West Bank as much as in Haifa, and Chotiner said, “You were born in New York . . . Where did you get that right?” Oren answered, “It’s my heritage for three thousand years.” Chotiner said, “You are saying that wherever they are living, they [Palestinians] have less right to be there than you as a Jew born in New York.”
    Then Oren bridles and says the New Yorker is promoting “delegitimization” of the Jewish state. He hangs up the phone.

    “The great thing about the Oren interview is that he’s being honest and the argument sucks so bad he can’t even have a conversation,” Scott Roth wrote on Twitter. “It’s glorious!”
    We’ve got an excerpt of the interview below, but don’t forget that Oren was a high official in the Netanyahu government and these questions were entirely reasonable, indeed perfectly mundane, given Netanyahu’s destruction of the two-state solution, and yet he can’t take the heat. Why does he get so flustered? Because right-wing Zionists have been pampered in the mainstream American press for many years, the underlying religious-chauvinist assumptions of their ideology never sharply questioned. When Oren says “delegitimization,” he is accusing the New Yorker of endorsing anti-Semitism under international guidelines that are now embedded in anti-BDS legislation that one U.S. state after another is rushing to pass.
    In finally asking these questions, the New Yorker inches closer to the understanding that Zionism really is settler-colonialism.

    Make Settlers Great Again

    Americans Disproportionately Leading the Charge in Settling the West Bank

    Are they being nudged there by the stealth efforts of the Israeli government and its NGO allies?
    By Judy Maltz
    Jun 23, 2017

    Immigration statistics are a matter of great pride for Israeli leaders. What better proof of the success of the Zionist project, they ask, than the fact that tens of thousands of Jews from around the world choose to make Israel their home each year?

    But among the charts and tables that accompany the publication of these statistics each year, one bit of information tends to get lost: the number of immigrants moving to West Bank settlements. Not because the figure doesn’t exist, but because Israeli officials would rather not draw attention to it. After all, most of the world considers the settlements a major impediment to peace in the Middle East.

    Credit goes to Barr also besides MAGA, Jeff Sessions whom Barr replaced might not have shown this kind of strong leadership at DOJ :

    Trump administration and communal leaders to address DOJ summit on anti-Semitism

    The “Summit on Combating Anti-Semitism” was prompted by a rise in anti-Semitic incidents throughout the United States, coupled with two deadly synagogue shootings six months apart.


    July 15, 2019
    The “Summit on Combating Anti-Semitism” hosted by the U.S. Department of Justice on July 15 will features rabbis, media representatives and those in the legal profession alongside Trump administration leadership, including opening remarks by Attorney General William Barr.

    Elan Carr, U.S. Special Envoy to Monitor and Combat Anti-Semitism, will also address those gathered in Washington for the program.
    Sessions will focus on “combating anti-Semitism while respecting the First Amendment,” “prosecuting hate crimes” and “anti-Semitism on campus.” JNS editor in chief Jonathan S. Tobin will speak as part of the panel on campus anti-Semitism across America.
    The summit will conclude with presentations by Secretary of the Treasury Steve Mnuchin and director of the Federal Bureau of Investigation Christopher Wray.
    The summit was prompted by a rise in anti-Semitic incidents throughout the United States, coupled with shootings six months apart during synagogue services—in Pittsburgh on Oct. 27, 2018, leaving 11 Jewish worshippers dead; and in Poway, Calif., on April 27, the last day of Passover, where one woman was shot and killed, and three others injured, including the rabbi.

    Trump calls on Ilhan Omar to resign from Congress for ‘anti-Semitism’
    February 12, 2019
    WASHINGTON (JTA) — President Donald Trump called on Rep. Ilhan Omar, D-Minn., to resign from Congress for what he said was her anti-Semitism.
    “It’s terrible what she said and I think she should either resign from Congress, or she should certainly resign from the House Foreign Affairs Committee,” Trump told reporters on Tuesday. “What she said is so deep-seated in her heart that her lame apology, and that’s what it was, it was lame and she didn’t mean a word of it, was just not appropriate. I think she should resign from Congress.”
    Omar, in her first term in the Congress, said Sunday on Twitter that the American Israel Public Affairs Committee pays lawmakers to be pro-Israel. After condemnations from Republicans and Democrats, including the Democratic leadership in the U.S. House of Representatives, she said she “unequivocally” apologized after speaking with “Jewish allies and colleagues who are educating me on the painful history of anti-Semitic tropes.”


    Apparently powerful enough to create such stunning response from some old MAGA supporters:

    David Duke supported Trump in 2016 and now supports Ilhan Omar








    But Trump himself has been falsely accused of being 'anti-semite' , 'racist' in 2016 before elections, whereas in reality Trump is probably the most pro-diversity/pro-racial integration President in US history (he may end up being impeached for a misunderstood call he made to then US EU ambassador Sondland trying to get another Somali-American immigrant mother's son rapper Rocky A$AP freed from Swedish custody).
    So perhaps his own apparent pandering statements with such accusations should be seen in that context.

    He tends to tweet about almost almost everything that goes through his greatest mind of all times, so he probably has quoted what exactly triggered him to call for the Congresswoman's resignation. She can't be the only 'anti-semite' or AIPAC money's critic in Congress. In quick search , did not see any tweet from him quoting Ilhan's comments. So probably unfair to assume that he was just pandering or messaging GOPA donors to send more money to fund America-First movement.

    Trump Calls On Rep. Ilhan Omar To Resign Over Remarks Criticized As Anti-Semitic

    February 12, 2019
    Merrit Kennedy

    U.S. Rep. Ilhan Omar, shown here at a news conference last month, is under scrutiny for comments she made on Twitter on Sunday.

    President Trump has called on Rep. Ilhan Omar, D-Minn., to resign after she made comments on social media that were criticized as "anti-Semitic" by lawmakers from both parties, including House Speaker Nancy Pelosi.

    "Anti-Semitism is real and I am grateful for Jewish allies and colleagues who are educating me on the painful history of anti-Semitic tropes," Omar said Monday. "This is why I unequivocally apologize."
    She also said, "At the same time, I reaffirm the problematic role of lobbyists in our politics, whether it be AIPAC, the NRA or the fossil fuel industry."
    Trump described the apology as "lame," according to The Associated Press. "Anti-Semitism has no place in the United States Congress," Trump said Tuesday. "I think she should either resign from Congress or she should certainly resign from the Foreign Affairs Committee."

    Omar, along with freshman Rep. Rashida Tlaib, is one of the first two Muslim women elected to Congress. As NPR's Susan Davis reported, "Omar questioned the financial relationship between AIPAC, the powerful pro-Israel lobby, and members of Congress in tweets over the weekend."
    The initial tweet that sparked the outrage happened Sunday, in Omar's response to a tweet about how she and Tlaib could face action over criticizing Israel. She said "It's all about the Benjamins baby." When asked who she thought was paying lawmakers, she replied: "AIPAC!"
    Rep. Deb Haaland, D-N.M., one of the first indigenous representatives, told NPR's Here & Now on Tuesday that she is "really happy" that Omar apologized.
    "Any type of anti-Semitism in any form needs to be soundly rejected," Haaland said. "I thought [House Speaker Nancy] Pelosi did what she needed to do to make sure that we stop this in its tracks, because the Democrats, we support Israel. We support Israel's right to exist."

    Pelosi and other House Democratic leaders issued a statement describing Omar's tweets as "deeply offensive."
    Omar is a member of the House Committee on Foreign Affairs. The committee's chairman, Democrat Eliot Engel, said Monday that "it's shocking to hear a Member of Congress invoke the anti-Semitic trope of 'Jewish money.' ... Criticism of American policy toward any country is fair game, but this must be done on policy grounds."

    Engel stopped short of calling for her to resign from the committee.

    Stephen Miller: ‘Deep vein of anti-Semitism running through Democratic Party’

    by Paul Bedard | December 21, 2019

    Calling claims that he is a white nationalist “offensive” and “outrageous,” top White House aide Stephen Miller charged that attacks on him are driven by anti-Semites in the Democratic Party eager to “demonize” him because he is a Jew who works for President Trump.
    Noting the rise in anti-Jewish statements from House Democrats, Miller said the party is stained with anti-Semitism and he is simply the latest target.
    “It's an attempt on the part of the Democratic Party to attack and demonize a Jewish staffer. Make no mistake, there is a deep vein of anti-Semitism that is running through today's Democratic Party,” he said on Fox.

    Auschwitz survivors warn of rising anti-Semitism 75 years on

    By VANESSA GERA yesterday


    OSWIECIM, Poland (AP) — Survivors of the Auschwitz-Birkenau death camp prayed and wept as they marked the 75th anniversary of its liberation, returning Monday to the place where they lost entire families and warning about the ominous growth of anti-Semitism and hatred in the world.

    “We have with us the last living survivors, the last among those who saw the Holocaust with their own eyes,” Polish President Andrzej Duda told those at the commemoration, which included the German president as well as Jewish, Christian and Muslim leaders.

    “The magnitude of the crime perpetrated in this place is terrifying, but we must not look away from it and we must never forget it,” Duda said.
    About 200 camp survivors attended, many of them elderly Jews and non-Jews who traveled from Israel, the United States, Australia, Peru, Russia, Slovenia and elsewhere. Many lost parents and grandparents in Auschwitz or other Nazi death camps during World War II, but were joined by children, grandchildren and even great-grandchildren.
