Let's talk about Miftah, the antisemitic organization that @RashidaTlaib and @IlhanMN wanted to use to show them Palestine.

It isn't pretty.

@RashidaTlaib @IlhanMN In 2013, I discovered that Miftah - Hanan Ashrawi's NGO - had published, in Arabic, an article saying that Jews had Passover blood rituals and used the blood of Christians for matzoh on Passover.

Miftah insulted me for pointing it out.

@RashidaTlaib @IlhanMN Finally, after major media picked up on the story, they took down the article and apologized - but only in English. Arabic readers still believe the blood libel of Tlaib and Omar's tour guides.

@RashidaTlaib @IlhanMN I then noticed that the site also praised female suicide bombers.

They silently removed the articles, without apology.

@RashidaTlaib @IlhanMN I kept looking. Miftah had an article attacking Judaism and questioning whether the Temples existed, as well as opposing Jews even visiting the holy site.

@RashidaTlaib @IlhanMN Miftah supported terrorists as national heroes and supported naming public squares after the likes of Dalal Mughrabi. elderofziyon.blogspot.com/2013/06/miftah…

@RashidaTlaib @IlhanMN The Miftah NGO wrote articles explicitly against joint Israel-Arab peace programs.

Europeans continued to fund it even though it was against their own goals.

@RashidaTlaib @IlhanMN Finally, Miftah posted a neo-Nazi article::

Yes, Tlaib and Omar wanted to have a tour from neo-Nazi supporters.

@RashidaTlaib @IlhanMN From that angle, I would have LOVED to see them tour with Miftah, because the media would have uncovered these many antisemitic postings.

In that sense - too bad.

But still, they chose Miftah for the tour, which tells you a lot about their tolerance for antisemitism.

@RashidaTlaib @IlhanMN BTW, Miftah STILL has their attack on me for exposing their antisemitism on their website - even after supposedly apologizing for publishing the article that Jews kill Christian children for Passover matzoh.

@RashidaTlaib @IlhanMN And I just checked - Miftah has at least a half dozen articles TODAY calling mass murderer Dalal Mughrabi a heroic martyr.
