Congresswomen Ilhan Omar, D-Minn., and Rashida Tlaib, D-Mich., aren't hiding their anti-Semitism. And the narrative depends on the players. Our major media are driven by narrative, not by fact. The BDS position becomes worthy of debate, rather than a symptom of anti-Semitism. Suddenly, a media blackout arises with regard to the NGO sponsoring the visit the Washington Post calls the organization "a nonprofit organization headed by Palestinian lawmaker and longtime peace negotiator Hanan Ashrawi" The New York Times praises the group for raising "global awareness and knowledge of Palestinian realities." The statements of the congresspeople become mere conversation starters The New York Times praises one for starting a vital conversation about Israel. Suddenly, the Congresspeople become put-upon heroes, victimized by the evils of the nefarious Jewish state. Simply switch out the word "Republican" for "Democrat" and the media coverage shifts 180 degrees.

Ted Cruz, R-T., to House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., had declared it so. Imagine also that both congresspeople had a long history of associations with open anti-Semites.įinally, imagine that both members were supporters of the anti-Semitic boycott, divest and sanctions (BDS) movement directed against Israel - a movement so obviously anti-Semitic that a bipartisan coterie ranging from Sen. Imagine that these congresspeople had expressed support for terrorist Rasmea Odeh. Imagine that these congresspeople had themselves engaged in anti-Semitic slurs, ranging from a suggestion that Israel supporters in America suffer from dual loyalty, to the accusation that Israel "hypnotized the world," to the suggestion that Jewish money lies behind America's support for Israel ("it's all about the Benjamins"). Imagine that these two congresspeople tweeted a cartoon from a cartoonist so anti-Semitic he won second prize at Iran's Holocaust denial cartoon contest. Imagine that particular NGO had a long history of Jew hatred: It had run a piece on its website quoting anti-Semitic myths about Jews imbibing Christian blood, republished a neo-Nazi article decrying the "Jew-controlled entertainment media" and suggested that "honor" was the proper response to a terrorist who murdered 38 Israelis, including 13 children. this is not the time to relax.Imagine two sitting Republican congresspeople planned a trip to a foreign country in conjunction with a nongovernmental organization.

"This storm is dangerous, and there's a second storm expected to hit this week, which will make things even worse, so if you can, stay home. In a radio interview with " The Joe Pags Show" on Monday, Cruz urged his fellow Texans to stay put. If he was in the midst of this and he was experiencing this, I think there would be a different attitude." Galveston Mayor Craig Brown suggested that Cruz was out of touch, telling MSNBC: "It's a response to me of someone who didn't have to experience this. #TedCruzRESIGN." It also sought to raise money for struggling Texans with a website called "." The name is a play on former President Donald Trump's "Lyin' Ted" nickname for Cruz when they ran against each other in the 2016 Republican presidential primaries. The state Democratic Party called on Cruz to resign from Congress, tweeting, "Texans are dying and you're on a flight to Cancun. "They reached out to us, let us know that he was going to be arriving and could we assist, so upon his arrival to the Houston airport we monitored his movements," a police department spokesperson told NBC News.ĭemocrats were outraged, as millions of people across Texas have been struggling without power and heat and have suffered water system disruptions for several days in record low temperatures.
