Jews in America Need to Stop Thinking They're Israeli

Sharing my thoughts on WZO Diaspora Affairs head Gusti Yehoushua-Braverman speaking to the Jeruslaem Post about the damaging effect of the incident (Tlaib not entering Israel on her own accord) on Israel and Diaspora Jewry.

Jews in America need to stop thinking they can make decisions for Israel. Yes, Jews in America do assist with support and such.... not doubting that. However, that doesn’t give American Jews the right to control 🇮🇱. 

Israelis deal with a different set of issues and live under direct threat of terrorist organizations. They have rockets flying overhead and Democrat Jews are trying to find favor in the eyes of those who hate them regardless. 

Tlaib agreed in writing not to promote boycotts against Israel during the trip. Facing criticism by Palestinians and other opponents of the Israeli “occupation”🙄, quickly reversed course herself saying she could not make the trip under “these oppressive conditions.” 

Basically she had an opportunity and declined to visit because she had pressure from the Palestinians to not go under the conditions that were absolutely appropriate for Israel to expect. 

Talk about dual loyalty....
