Boycott Backers Have No Right to Visit Israel
(Washington Times) L. Todd Wood - If you have ever spent time in Israel, or even studied its history in an intellectually honest way, you have no choice but to acknowledge the entire BDS (Boycott, Divest, Sanction) movement is a huge lie meant to further the destruction of Israel and has nothing to do with helping the Palestinian people. The Palestinians have been offered a peace deal many times and refused; they don't want peace. They want to rid the region of Jews. Israel is the only country in the Middle East where Arabs are free, can vote and can live in peace. I've been there many times and have seen it with my own eyes. I've seen parents scrambling to get their children to safety. I've seen teachers herd their kids into the school bathroom in hopes the rockets won't harm the children. At one point, Sderot was hit by 2,500 rockets during a 12-month period. I'm sure that both congresswomen, Rashida Tlaib and Ilhan Omar, were planning to scream "racist" and find only "facts" that support their hateful boycott effort. The Israeli government is well within its rights to stop these two charlatans from entering the country.
