Democratic Rep. Rashida Tlaib is accused of meeting with a terrorist-supporting group, according to reports.
"Yesterday, we tabled at the Arab Texas Festival of Dallas! While doing community outreach, Palestinian congresswoman Rashida Tlaib stopped by our table. Thank you Rashida for continuing to stand by your bold stances on Palestine despite unrelenting Zionist backlash. PYM-USA (@PYM_USA) September 1, 2019"
"The organization describes itself as a “transnational, independent, grassroots movement of young Palestinians dedicated to the liberation of our homeland and people” and has been under fire due to its documented support of terrorist groups – like the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP)– and antisemitic vitriol.
The group openly calls to “stop the Zionist occupation and colonization of all Palestine” and requires “full support for the Palestinian resistance,” which includes emphatically supporting the Boycott, Divestment, Sanctions against Israel (BDS) movement– something Tlaib openly supports.
PYM USA also sponsors the Ghassan Kanafani Scholarship, named after a leader of the terrorist group PFLP. In an email to supporters in April 2017, PYM USA praised the PFLP terrorist and framed the scholarship as a way to “honor the work and legacy of Ghasan Kanafani as part of the larger history of our ongoing liberation struggle.”
Nice folks the demonocrats support, eh?

What do you think is antisemitic about a movement to stop the Zionist occupation on Israel? 🤔 I'm just pretty curious how you view the claims and what your response would be if you carry Zionist views
@Babylon I am just saying these people do not belong in our government. They want to change things in that part of the world, go back and to that part of the world and do what you can to change it.
The role of the Federal Government of the USA, is to protect the borders and protect against threats to this country abroad. The states are supposed to do everything else. They are doing none of those things. They are doing everything they should not be doing, and not doing everything they should be doing.
Should we go back to a volunteer based representation, I think things would right themselves quite quickly.
@accidentprone How about we get rid of the military and replace it with volunteer citizen's militias? I mean, if we're going to do everything the way it was done 250 years ago, as if the U.S. is still an agrarian backwater.
@sunsporter1649 I'm aware we have an all-volunteer military, dipshit. I'm asking why it has to be taxpayer-funded. Since you support that, you're a socialist. Anyone against socialism would demand a private, for-profit military supported by retail sale of their services to the public.
