Media Bias on Israel

- Their anti-Semitic views and BDS activism, not their faith, led to the ban.
Tlaib and Omar's True Agenda
- Tlaib and Omar's trip, funded by Miftah, aimed to promote BDS and delegitimize Israel, not foster dialogue.
- Their itinerary focused solely on "Palestine," omitting any meetings with Israeli officials.
Tlaib's Choice

- After Israel granted humanitarian access, Tlaib refused, revealing her true motives.
