Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN) and Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-MI) introduced legislation to support the terror-funded BDS movement on Wednesday.
BDS stands for the movement to boycott, divest from and sanction Israel. A visit to the BDS website (www.BDSmovement.net) quickly reveals that BDS has a far more radical goal: eliminating Israel as a Jewish state. This is not an exaggeration. This is something BDS leaders readily admit.
The proposed legislation by Ilhan Omar compares Israel to:
** Nazi Germany
** Imperial Japan
** Soviet Russia
The @IlhanMN @RashidaTlaib @repjohnlewis pro-BDS bill implicitly compares Israel to
* Nazi Germany
* Imperial Japan
* The USSR
