Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez Praises Anti-Semitic Groups for Supporting Letter Censuring Israeli Sovereignty
The Defense for Children International-Palestine has been linked to the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine, designated a terror group by the United States and European Union.

The “supporting organizations” listed on the letter include several related to the anti-Israel BDS movement, including the U.S. Campaign for Palestinian Rights, American Muslims for Palestine, American Friends Service Committee, Churches for Middle East Peace and Defense for Children International-Palestine.
The Defense for Children International-Palestine has been linked to the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine, designated a terror group by the United States and European Union.
The letter last month to U.S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo threatened the conditioning or even cutting off of U.S. assistance to Israel if the Jewish state goes ahead with its plans to apply sovereignty to—or what they call annex—parts of the West Bank (Judea and Samaria).
In addition to Ocasio-Cortez, 12 other members of Congress signed the letter: Rashida Tlaib (D-Mich.), Pramila Jayapal (D-Wash.), Betty McCollum (D-Minn.), Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.), Ayanna Pressley (D-Mass.), Raul Grijalva (D-Ariz.), André Carson (D-Ind.), Nydia Velázquez (D-N.Y.), Bobby Rush (D-Ill.), Jesús “Chuy” Garcia (D-Ill.), Danny Davis (D-Ill.) and Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.).
In the letter, the progressive members of Congress, citing unspecified “leading human rights experts,” warn that “annexing parts of the West Bank will perpetuate and entrench human rights violations against Palestinians including limitations on freedom of movement, mass expropriation of privately-owned Palestinian land, further expansion of illegal settlements, continued demolitions of Palestinian homes, and a loss of Palestinian control over their natural resources.”
The letter accuses Israel of “paving the path toward an apartheid system” since it won’t grant citizenship to Palestinians living in annexed territory,” despite the Palestinians being under the control of the Palestinian Authority, which has long been known for corruption, human-rights abuses and supporting terrorism against Israelis.
“The U.S. should work to build a future in which all Palestinians and Israelis live under full equality by upholding a foreign policy that centers human rights and dignity for all people,” states the letter. “We therefore call on you to use a combination of pressure and incentives to stop Israel’s plans to illegally annex the West Bank, which would ensure a worsening of the situation for all Palestinians and Israelis.”
The Congress members warn that if Israel were to go ahead with annexation, which the Israeli government has said it will do some time after July 1, “we will work to ensure non-recognition as well as pursue conditions on the $3.8 billion in U.S. military funding to Israel, including human rights conditions and withholding funds for the off-shore procurement of Israeli weapons equal to or exceeding the amount the Israeli government spends annually to fund settlements, as well as the policies and practices that sustain and enable them.”
The American Israel Public Affairs Committee and other pro-Israel groups have pushed back against the letter.
AIPAC called it “one-sided,” saying it “directly threatens the U.S.-Israel relationship,” “supports conditioning and cutting America’s security assistance commitment to Israel” and “would damage American interests, risk the security of Israel and make a two-state solution less likely.”
In response to the Democratic letter, a group of U.S. House Republicans penned a letter this month to Pompeo in support of Israel possibly extending sovereignty to Judea and Samaria.

I’m seeing a conflict of sorts here. Isn’t America cursed with this space cadet because of sorros money? He claims to be a jew. But he’s not and does lie.
Occasional Cortex has found time to assist NASA as a consultant, with her theory that space craft can travel to the Sun at night.
Good thing AOC has real school smarts. She can bus tables, watch how a cash register works, knows the difference between Corona and Covid, can balance a tray of drinks, knows how to spend taxpayer money, talk and breath at the same time, and a whole lot of other well hidden talents. Now if she only had brains and could think past herself.
What happened to AOC campaign finance issues?
Is it the same thing that happened to Omar marrying her brother and campaign issues too? How about Omar paying her latest husband through his fake consulting firm, money from campaign donations? What’s going on there?
This sure looks like Banana Republic “justice” to me…..
Can the eternal bar-maid at least point to Israel on a map? Of course not, she can’t even point out the US of A! Besides, she doesn’t know what a map IS!
‘The letter accuses Israel of “paving the path toward an apartheid
system” since it won’t grant citizenship to Palestinians living in
annexed territory,”’
And the Gaza Shite is:
a. entirely Judenfrei (like most of the muslum world and most recently Yemen)
b. persecutes the fewer and fewer Christians unfortunate to live under the thumb of the muslum koranutans
But the fact the entire muslum world consists of nothing but religious apartheid states doesn’t seem to interest these corrupt, congressional vermin.
This clearly an act of treason against the uSA & one of it’s strongest allies.
AOC = all that is wrong with the American schooling system….
Hey AOC, the Nazi’s will be coming for you next.
