House Censures Rep Rashida Tlaib over defense of Hamas, calls to destroy Israel

It's a good first step. Now if only there was a way to get her out of office. I don't know if you can do that with an elected official. The vote was not unanimous. There were actually people who voted against it. That's a sad statement about our elected officials in Washington.

She's still spreading the Hamas lie that Israel bombed a hospital killing 500 people. She's still calling 'from the river to the sea ...' the Hamas battlecry to destroy Israel and kill all the Jews. Something is really wrong with her.


House Censures Rep Rashida Tlaib over defense of Hamas, calls to destroy Israel

The House of Representatives voted Tuesday night to censure Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-Mich.) for defending Hamas’ Oct. 7 terror attack against Israel as “resistance” and calling for the destruction of the Jewish state.

Tlaib is the 26th member of Congress to be censured by the House in the legislative body’s history.

The censure vote, initially scheduled for Wednesday, was apparently moved up after Rep. Rich McCormick’s (R-Ga.) office – the congressman who introduced the resolution – received death threats.

“I take the safety of my team seriously. I am temporarily closing my physical district office location in Cumming, GA due to serious threats of violence against my staff. These threats have been reported to Capitol Police and will be investigated fully,” McCormick said in an X post.

McCormick’s resolution passed in a 234-188 vote, with four members voting present.

And this does what? Nothing. Censure means nothing today. Simply a waste of time and money. Just like Mayor Pete and the "one dollar pay" stunt. Does nothing, means nothing. That's why Republicans lose. This nonsense.

Democrats voted to censure her as well.

Well at least one representative is voicing the will of those who put her in office. As more and more Muslims are let into the country and out breed everyone else I would expect big changes in the next 25 years. I can almost hear the call to prayer in every city already.

So the right of self defense only applies to Zionists? War don't work that way.

Rape and burning people to death and chopping up pregnant women and beheading the unborn child .. that's not self defense. Hamas is a terrorist organization and she's a Hamas enthusiast.

I wonder how many HAMAS billionaires she slept with. Possibly thats her motivation.

It is good to see your are understanding some of how war works. You want to ignore 80 years of history for why things are here, that's on you. You want to ignore Israel's role in this and why there is an uprising building, does not look like a smart move while calling for war.

World wars suck really bad, for all involved. Not just the terrorist animals on both side of the conflict.

Watching the back and forth of the "who, what, why" every time someone doesn't agree with them, leading to them being labeled and called a terrorist supporter and enthusiast, or inviting of genocide, etc., (pick your derogatory mud sling for your preferred side) is...... beautiful.

It really shows how far we've come as a race/species.

Last week they voted NOT to censure.

This time they voted TO censor.

I wonder if last week's vote was a setup to give her (and supporters) a comfort zone and then demolish herself with more emboldened cheap racist type talk?

Tlaib Fights Censure With Lies

Facing censure in the House of Representatives over her antisemitism and thinly veiled support for Hamas, the Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-Ramallah) is fighting back using a strategy that Islamic spokesmen in the West have frequently favored over the years: she’s lying. This shouldn’t come as any surprise to anyone: in the book that those spokesmen and Tlaib consider to be holy, lying to infidels is specifically allowed for when one is cornered. And if anyone is cornered right now, it’s Rashida Tlaib.

In a statement on the censure resolutions, Tlaib insisted: “I have repeatedly denounced the horrific targeting and killing of civilians by Hamas and the Israeli government, and have mourned the Israeli and Palestinian lives lost.” It is important to note that this is not actually a denunciation of Hamas, which Tlaib has never denounced, but only of “the horrific targeting and killing of civilians” by both “Hamas and the Israeli government,” as if the two were equivalent when one deliberately targets civilians and puts them in harm’s way and the other takes extraordinary measures to avoid civilian casualties.

So even Tlaib’s criticism of Hamas’ actions on Oct. 7 is watered down by her absurd moral equivalence of Hamas with the Israeli government. Beyond that, however, where exactly were these instances of Tlaib repeatedly denouncing Hamas for murdering Israeli civilians? On Oct. 8, the day after Hamas murdered over 1,400 Israeli civilians in one of the bloodiest, most savage jihad massacres of modern times, Tlaib led off her statement with the same moral equivalence: “I grieve the Palestinian and Israeli lives lost yesterday, today, and every day.” Then she launched into a series of thinly veiled indictments of Israel: “I am determined as ever to fight for a just future where everyone can live in peace, without fear and with true freedom, equal rights, and human dignity. The path to that future must include lifting the blockade, ending the occupation, and dismantling the apartheid system that creates the suffocating, dehumanizing conditions that can lead to resistance.” About Hamas’ targeting of civilians she said absolutely nothing, and, in fact, didn’t even mention the jihad terror group at all.

So what is Tlaib doing claiming now that she has repeatedly denounced Hamas’ targeting of civilians? It’s simple: she is lying. And that lying is firmly within the bounds of what is acceptable behavior according to the Qur’an on which she was sworn in. The Islamic holy book says: “Let not the believers take unbelievers for their friends in preference to believers. Whoever does that has no connection with Allah unless you are guarding yourselves against them, taking security.” (3:28)
