Israel is really working overtime to gaurantee that an ever growing group of Americans hate them.

Israel will bar Congresswomen Rashida Tlaib and Ilhan Omar from entering Israel due to "suspected provocations and promotion of BDS”

I'd say it's perfectly in line with the nature of the State of Israel, but...
Of course people believe it, but that doesn't mean that's why the government cares. For example, a lot of people believed Iraq had WMDs, it wasn't why we went to war. That's the story they told to convince people.
Trump using his racist bullhorn and dipping his toe into authoritarian power. He and his administration are the largest threat to the average US citizen with an overwhelming number of examples.
Support BDS.
Less of this shite would be a start "Israel's denial of entry to Congresswomen Tlaib and Omar is a sign of weakness, and beneath the dignity of the great State of Israel"
It's not a sign of weakness. It's racism, and it's par for the course for apartheid Israel. "beneath the dignity" lol "great state of israel" lmao

AIPAC is against the decision:

I disagree 100% with Reps. Tlaib & Omar on #Israel & am the author of the #AntiBDS bill we passed in the Senate
But denying them entry into #Israel is a mistake.
Being blocked is what they really hoped for all along in order to bolster their attacks against the Jewish state.

Why is this surprising? aipac exists to promote bipartisan support of israel in the US. Moves like these push support of israel towards (diminishing) right wing support. Without bipartisan support israel would implode
I'm sure not being able to visit her family is exactly what Tlaib wanted.
The worst of this is they don't give a shit what American Jews think and ironically all Jews have automatic Israeli citizenship.
"and beneath the dignity of the great State of Israel" is laughable as hell
This is a big deal. We have a POTUS attacking sitting members of congress in an attempt to appease a foreign power.
It doesn't even matter which foreign power we're talking about. His actions are absolutely unacceptable, and this should be grounds for impeachment all on its own.
So, the US embassy is calling US representatives terrorists? Not that I like this word, but the US is acting like a cuck, undermining its own institutions to please a foreign country.
Fucking hell this guy is jerking off hard to Israel's shitty decision.
Im confused at Trump's tactics, and this is why i fear those Alzheimer's rumors are true. Who wins here?
Even as bipartisan as the country is, banning two congresswoman is a bad look that's going to give both sides pause.
His base automatically hates the congresswomen for being minorities and having vaginas, so there's only so much wind left in that balloon.
It makes Israel look shady as fuck internationally, and arguably makes it even look more like a vassal state to the US...in a bad way

Ah, the US Gov't is now officially a fascist state. Lovely.
Its amazing how easy she makes yhis all look.
Meanwhile.. Pelosi is a fucking jar of snot sitting in the sun.
Rashida Tlaib @RashidaTlaib
This woman right here is my sity. She deserves to live in peace & with human dignity. I am who I am because of her. The decision by Israel to bar her granddaughter, a U.S. Congresswoman, is a sign of weakness b/c the truth of what is happening to Palestinians is frightening.

I really wonder what Trump is doing besides shitting on Democrats constantly.
Oh yeah, he is busy creating a global recession.

as an American Jew, so fucking tired of solipsistic hand-wringing from liberal Zionists who are complicit in bringing things to this point
It looks like you're talking about the paramilitary group Lehi from the 40s. That did indeed exist but they were far from mainstream, the smallest of the three pre Israel groups.
Additionally that sort of thinking ceased to exist very shortly after the actual state was founded. Most of the first parties were socialists.
That isn't to say they were all a paragon of virtue, but they just weren't fascists.
I feel like the word fascist is tossed around a lot to mean "undemocratic policies" or "racist policies" and it doesn't have the same meaning.
Really dem leadership should stand up and say NO DEM congressman/women will go to Israel until they are all allowed.
We could have Israel by their balls and force them to either accept or double down with accepting only the Republican vote officially. And then they will make this a major Dem/Rep issue.

Yeah, I always thought that angle was GREATLY overstated.
The US got into a bunch of fun little war in the region in the 21st century, and if anything, Israel was just a hindrance to all of them.
Not yet. There's plenty of US military bases and personel.
Disappointing. Just another example how the move towards global fascism is growing.
While growing up I went to summer camp with an Ethiopian Jew, I met his family a few times, they were very nice. As a Jew from NYC I didn't even know there were African Black Jews. They have a very interesting history.
I mean technically the US gets to try out its military technology by proxy. All sorts of war crimes can be committed by Israel with impunity. Wonder where they got that white phosphorus from years ago.
I hope Netanyahu will be tried in the Hague one day for his genocidal rage and war crimes against humanity.
Fuck the Likud party. There are too many good Israelis out there for me to say "fuck israel".
