Tlaib slams Israel/UAE peace deal and says Israel is committing apartheid

[Indy Texas]

The UAE has never been at war with Israel. The UAE did not even exist as an independent country in 1948 or 1967. They don't share any borders with Israel.

The attempt by the Trump Administration to market this as some groundbreaking peace deal akin to the ones Israel made with Egypt in 1979 or with Jordan in 1994 is just dishonest.

The UAE didn't make any concessions to Israel because there were no concessions to make. Israel didn't make any concessions to the UAE because there were no concessions to make. They just agreed not to do something that's illegal and that it was already clear there wasn't the political will to do in the first place.

This is a nothingburger. You could even make the argument that it makes the Middle East less stable because neither Israel nor any of the Gulf States would want to go to war with Iran by themselves but if they normalized relations and could do it together, it would be that much easier.

The fact that the ethnic background of our Congress people predicts their views on foreign nations is deeply concerning to me. For or against Israel.

Someone whose parents were expelled from their homeland by Israel happens to not like Israel very much. Why is that any more concerning than a Cuban-American congressman whose family had to flee Castro's revolution being hawkish on Cuba?

Is the Grand Mufti paying for these constant mentions on here? Do his heirs get some kind of residuals?
