House bill calls for US to refer officially to ‘Judea, Samaria,’ not ‘West Bank’

“The term ‘West Bank’ is used to delegitimize Israel’s historical claim to this land,” stated Rep. Claudia Tenney (R-N.Y.).

There is just no comparison between the Republican attitude toward Israel, and the Democrat attitude. You have to be willfully blind not to see it. One consistently supports Israel, while the other supports it just enough to keep the Jewish democrat money and votes coming in, but continually supports antisemites in their ranks, and regularly does whatever it can get away with to attempt to demonize and weaken Israel. Their actions tell the story too. If the democrats introduced a bill like this, their base would lose their minds, and there would be days, and months, of protests, while they would lose a significant number o votes. Republicans know that the vast majority, of GOP congressional members and voters, will support this bill. And THAT'S the difference.

The Phony “Occupation” Dodge

Francesca Albanese, the Italian lawyer who holds the United Nations position of “Special Rapporteur on the occupied Palestinian territories,” is defensive when it comes to accusations of anti-Semitism. This is understandable, considering her own record of controversial statements. In 2014, she wrote that the United States tends to be pro-Israel because it is “subjugated by the Jewish lobby,” while Europe supports the Jewish state because of its “sense of guilt about the Holocaust.” In most places, revealing that you believe conspiracy theories about Jews controlling America would be disqualifying. At the United Nations, it earns you a promotion.
