There has been widespread condemnation after Donald Trump recruited
Israel into his dispute with outspoken congresswomen by encouraging it
to deny entry to Ilhan Omar and Rashida Tlaib, the first two Muslim congresswomen elected to Congress.
“Trump’s Muslim ban is what Israel is implementing, this time against two duly elected members of Congress,” said Omar. A raft of US politicians as well as peak Jewish lobbying groups condemned Israel’s decision and Trump’s part in it.
Netanyahu defended his government’s rationale, claiming the sole purpose of Tlaib’s and Omar’s visit had been “to damage Israel and to foment against Israel”.
Netanyahu said his government would consider allowing Tlaib, who is of Palestinian descent, to visit the occupied West Bank if she requested it on humanitarian grounds.
Note EU-Digest: This is unbelievable and ridiculous, these two ladies are not only American Citizens, they are also members of Congress.
