The real reason Tlaib turns down Israeli government offer to allow her to visit her grandmother

The Israeli government said they would allow her to visit her grandmother as long as her visit wasn't for political reasons, she declined.

The reason is obvious, if her visit is purely for personal reasons, SHE has to pay for it, not U.S. tax payers! Plus she can't bring her staff unless she foots the bill. Turns out when it comes to her paying for her trip, she's not concerned about seeing her 90 year old grandmother before she dies.
Israeli minister rips Tlaib for nixing trip, says ‘her hate for Israel’ overcomes ‘love for her grandmother’.Israel’s interior minister tore into U.S. Rep. Rashida Tlaib on Friday for abruptly canceling plans to visit family in the West Bank after the government granted permission for the trip in a bid to smooth over a diplomatic firestorm.

“Apparently her hate for Israel overcomes her love for her grandmother,” Aryeh Deri tweeted.

The dueling statements from Tlaib and the Israeli government are poised to escalate a confrontation that briefly seemed to be ebbing Friday morning – when Deri granted Tlaib’s request on humanitarian grounds to see her grandmother in the Israeli-occupied West Bank.



This came after the Israeli government drew bipartisan criticism in Washington for refusing entry to Tlaib, D-Mich., and Rep. Ilhan Omar, D-Minn., as part of a broader visit.

But then Tlaib, in a scathing statement and set of tweets, announced she had decided not to go, saying "oppressive conditions meant to humiliate me would break my grandmother's heart."

RealTool (being a typical Republican) can't understand anyone giving a flying fuck about their grandmother's feelings.

RealTool's grandmother is relegated to serving beer and pretzels to his friends around a flat screen TV instead of allowing her to go to church on Sunday. And if she complains, he locks her in her bedroom to teach her a lesson.

Tlaib cried that Israel wouldn't let her visit her 90 year old grandmother and she would die before she gets to see her, within hours Israel responds she is more than welcome to make a private visit to Israel to visit her grandmother but the visit has to be a private visit, not one for political reasons. Tlaib, suddenly decided she doesn't want to visit her grandmother.

As Trump pointed out since it would a private visit, Tlaib is to cheap to pay for it, she wanted to visit with her whole staff, to show off to her family and party down on the tax payers' dime.
