Omar, Tlaib Are Enemies of the Jewish State

(Fox News) Brooke Goldstein - Israel was wise to deny entry to Reps. Ilhan Omar and Rashida Tlaib. These are not good-faith actors, earnestly seeking to visit the Holy Land and learn about its people, history and culture. If their intention was to truly see the facts on the ground for what they are, they could have easily joined 72 of their fellow House members who visited Israel last week. But the pair ruled this out, instead choosing to plan their own trip to advance their anti-Israel and anti-Semitic political agenda. The two congresswomen have First Amendment rights - as do all American citizens - to express their beliefs. But Israel, as a sovereign nation, also has every right to decide who can and cannot enter its borders and for what purpose. No country on Earth would allow its sworn enemies to use its territory as a base from which to continue an insidious campaign of delegitimization.
