Ilhan Omar, D-Minn., and Rashida Tlaib, D-Mich., are being put in the bull's-eye of a petition that already has collected more than 130,000 signatures asking for them to be removed of various congressional committees and censured.
"Rep. Omar said that support for Israel is 'all about the Benjamins' - a bigoted accusation that Jews control all the money. She's attacked Jews and anyone who supports Israel as having a dual allegiance - another anti-Semitic trope. Rep. Tlaib said she has a 'calming feeling' about the Holocaust," it explains.
"Tlaib sparked outrage when she tweeted in January that people supporting a bill protecting states that penalize Israel boycotters 'forgot what country they represent.' Critics immediately pointed out that the 'dual loyalty' accusation is a known anti-Semitic line. But she did not delete her tweet."
Alexander said some believe the anti-Semitic rhetoric of Omar and Tlaib is inciting violence against Jews.
"Highland Park, Illinois, Rabbi Evan Moffic warned on a 'Fox & Friends' panel, 'When Ilhan Omar said 'It's all about the Benjamins, baby,' and she said Israel has 'hypnotized the world,' she's drawing on these stereotypes that have murdered millions of people in the Holocaust, which just happened 75 years ago. It's exactly because of that rhetoric.'".
Omar also has a history of anti-Semitism, writing on Twitter in 2012 Israel "Has hypnotized the world, may Allah awaken the people and help them see the evil doings of Israel."
"We are demanding that Speaker Nancy Pelosi and her leadership team stand against anti-Semitism and remove Rep. Omar and Rep. Tlaib from committees where they hold an elevated platform to influence - including matters directly impacting Israel."
