‘A Checkpoint Would Have Saved My Daughter:’ Mother of US Terror Victim Pushes Back Against Rep. Rashida Tlaib Comments

29

This is what scum like Geraldo Rivera and Peter Beinart fail to mention when they vilify Israel over checkpoints. If not for the checkpoints (and other security measures) Israel would be facing multiple terrorist attacks every day. Given the fact that the Palestinian Authority and Hamas incite, finance and engage in terrorism, security measures such as checkpoints are a must.

‘A Checkpoint Would Have Saved My Daughter:’ Mother of US Terror Victim Pushes Back Against Rep. Rashida Tlaib Comments

A teary-eyed Tlaib recounted, “As a young girl, visiting Palestine to see my grandparents and extended family, I watched as my mother had to go through dehumanizing checkpoints — even though she was a United States citizen and proud American.”

By Algemeiner Staff, August 20, 2019:

The mother of a US citizen murdered in a Palestinian terrorist attack slammed Michigan Democratic Congresswoman Rashida Tlaib on Tuesday for her comments on Israeli security checkpoints, saying, “checkpoints prevent terrorism — save lives.”

Frimet Roth, whose 15-year-old daughter Malki was killed in a Jerusalem terror attack in 2001, cited Tlaib’s statement on checkpoints at a press conference following Israel’s decision to bar her from entering the country.

A teary-eyed Tlaib recounted, “As a young girl, visiting Palestine to see my grandparents and extended family, I watched as my mother had to go through dehumanizing checkpoints — even though she was a United States citizen and proud American.”

Roth tweeted in response, “Rep Tlaib cried about her mother being ‘dehumanized’ at Israeli checkpoints. My child Malki, a US citizen murdered at 15, would be here today had a checkpoint stopped her murderer and a 10 kg bomb from entering Jerusalem.”

“Remind Tlaib: Checkpoints prevent terrorism — save lives,” Roth wrote.

Anti-American, anti-Semitic terrorist supporters Tlaib & Omar are always the victims.

Why does Rashida Tlaib always remind me of a horse undergoing a dental examination?

And no Fakestinian is a “proud American”. They are all members of the Ummah, first and always.

When you enter another country (legally) you must proceed through a customs checkpoint. You get questioned, sometimes searched, and must produce documents.

Talib’s mother went through a checkpoint just as an Israeli would in order to enter Egypt.

Perhaps if the West Bankers would not be so intent on murdering Israelis the checkpoint process would be faster.

Remember, her people had no concerns about strapping a bomb vest on a 15 year old mentally challenged boy to blow up Israelis. Instead of shooting him dead from a safe distance, Israelis convinced the child to stay where he was and were able to save his life by removing the vest. Was Talib, her mother, and her dear sweet grandmother upset about sending in a child to die and murder others, or were they upset about abusing a retarded child in this manner?

The hypocrisy of f’ing muslums is nowhere more apparent than in their attitudes towards Israel. The entirety of the Mid-East and N. Africa outside of Israel (incl. the Gaza Shite) consist of Judenrein, theocratic, religious apartheid muslum states yet they have the temerity to point the false finger of accusation at Israel.

Obama Banned Entry to Israeli Politician
“In that case, the person denied a visa to enter the United States to attend a conference was Michael Ben Ari. The reason given was that, according to the State Department, Ben Ari had ties to a terrorist group. This idea centered around Ben Ari’s conservative views and actions. He follows Kahanism ideology which means he believes that Arabs shouldn’t be living in Israel and shouldn’t have voting rights in Israel. The Kach party has been banned by the Israeli government and the U.S. State Department has labeled it a Foreign Terrorist Organization.”

They’re all enemy combatants. They shouldn’t be there. Not on any level.

As for Obama, he broke the law so many times he was in office, committed treason regularly, that I’m shocked he’s not in jail for life. So much for respect for the laws of the land! I’m sure he’d claim it was his Caucasian side that got away with “White Privilege” for breaking the law…

Obama may still do time
– Senate Judiciary Committee is homing in on Brennan
– as the instigator of the ‘get Trump’ attempt
– and Brennan talked often to the White House
– plus, Obama has no birth certificate
– no paper ever offered as evidence [I’m not kidding]
– investigation would nullify his presidency
– [“Position Unoccupied” in Hall of Presidents]
– and Obama could/should do time for fraud

Democracy, I think you’re on to something. Now who knows given Killary et al being just fine w/o prison time; but I do think Dunbar and Barr are a different breed.

Know something? I think a lot these days of our Savior’s Sermon on the Mount. “Blessed are they who hunger and thirst for justice, for they shall be satisfied.”

We do “hunger and thirst” Democracy, don’t we? And God says, that’s a good thing. So it’s not there as this horrible frustration-it’s a goad, and we’ll “be satisfied”.

Quote:”I watched as my mother had to go through dehumanizing checkpoints —

So that must be the real reason for the dehumanising TSA searches at airports – it’s all about payback

Why bother with “dehumanizing checkpoints,” when simply walling them off would solve the problem?

Hundreds of thousands of people go through checkpoints everyday at airports. Is that dehumanising? No it is a nuisance but people do it as it is better than being high jacked or worse. It was their fellow Muslims who created that situation

Rep.Tiaib I sympathize with the poor workers at check points that have to search and inspect your highly repugnant pungent bodies covered in poles less patio umbrellas. I can’t even imagine such human stink!.
