A pair of House Republicans announced a resolution to censure Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-MI) this week following her controversial response to the deadly attack on Israel by Hamas. Rep. Jack Bergman (R-MI), who introduced the measure with another GOP colleague, said Tlaib’s “longstanding history of antisemitic and racist rhetoric toward Israel cannot go unchecked.” The two-page resolution cites a number of comments and actions by Tlaib over the years, including, most recently, her statement on Sunday calling for an end to an “apartheid system” on Palestinians backed by the United States that she said can lead to “resistance” In addition to censuring Tlaib, the resolution would reaffirm the House of Representative’s support for Israel and reject the notion that it is an “apartheid” state. Tlaib also came under fire this week for flying a Palestinian flag outside her Capitol Hill office. The flag has been there since at least January, but observers were outraged the flag remained following Saturday’s attack.

We should also be working to observe and record all public events promoting and/or condoning Hamas and any other terror factions. The cowardly masks at these protests also need to come off (because if they're claiming they're worried about COVID, I'm throwing the BS flag). You are free to say what you want, and no one is saying otherwise, but you can and should be held accountable for your words. The politicians parsing words as they try to appear to be on the fence promoting "peace" while still offering "support" to the Palestinians, should also be considered for censure. Far too many of the people of the Palestinian territories are literally in the street cheering on the terrorists. Israel has given them options to vacate as they prepare to move in (something the terrorists did not do as they brutally murdered women and children, desecrated bodies, beheaded people, etc. THIS MUST STOP NOW! It's time to let the Israelis loose to at a minimum, marginalize Hamas and any other terror factions promoting the end of Israel. End them! I am all for a free and peaceful Palestinian state, but they are clearly not supportive of peace and an end to aggression against the Israeli people. The onus is on them to demonstrate they truly desire a peaceful existence with the Israeli people. Until then, either get out of Gaza, or stay and fight. But don't try to appeal to my empathy for what's to come if you choose to remain in what is clearly about to be a war zone to remove the terrorist threats.
