American Jewish Congress: Israel was right to bar Tlaib, Omar

The American Jewish Congress said on Thursday that Israel had made the right decision by denying entry to Congresswomen Ilhan Omar and Rashida Tlaib.

“The American Jewish Congress has strongly opposed the anti-Semitic and Israel-bashing rhetoric voiced by U.S. Congresswomen Rashida Tlaib and Ilhan Omar, and understands Israel’s decision to bar them from entering its borders,” said the heads of the organization in a statement.
