Criticism

The late Charles Krauthammer said that republicans think democrats are wrong and democrats think republicans are evil. This has come up a number of times, the most recent is that the wall is immoral. Criticism has come under threat. Challenge the policies of Israel and you are anti-Semitic. Challenge the wall and you are anti-immigrant. This past week Minnesota Representative Omar got caught in that trap. Nancy Pelosi came to her defense saying that Omar was misinterpreted. Some in the press did not believe Pelosi pointing out that in 2012 Omar made it clear that she was not a fan of Israel. Here is her quote: The tweet in which she used the word “hypnotized,” reads, “Israel has hypnotized the world, may Allah awaken the people and help them see the evil doings of Israel. This caught my attention because of the use of the word, "evil".
