You read that title correctly. And you better believe it is accurate.
Want some proof?
How about this excerpt from Adam Kredo’s article at freebeacon.com…
Anti-Israel representative Rashida Tlaib (D., Mich.) is connected to at least “six terror-linked activists who all served as cohosts for fundraisers for her 2018 congressional campaign,” according to a report from a watchdog group.
Just a day after the “Squad” member was censured by the House for promoting anti-Semitism, Canary Mission—an organization that monitors Jew hatred across the country—says it has identified three new Tlaib fundraisers who are connected to terrorism.
This includes one Tlaib fundraiser who “met with a Hamas co-founder while in a maximum-security Israeli jail” and another said to be allied “with multiple terror groups, including Hamas,” according to the findings provided by Canary Mission to the Washington Free Beacon. A third Tlaib fundraiser was allegedly convicted “by an Israeli military court for providing material support to Hamas,” according to the findings.
Canary Mission identified three other terror-tied Tlaib fundraisers in an October report that garnered widespread attention on social media.
…and this excerpt from Ed Morrissey’s article at hotair.com:
Now that they’ve had 48 hours to investigate these new allegations, how many outlets have reported on them? Let’s use the search phrase Tlaib Canary at each of these outlets, without quotes:
- New York Times: Zero, although two older and unrelated links come up. The search term Tlaib Hamas produces 22 links from the past month, but none of them about her potential links to Hamas as detailed by Canary Mission.
- Washington Post: Zero. The search term Tlaib Hamas only produces two links, neither of them pertinent.
- Detroit Free Press: Zero.
- Associated Press: Almost 800 returns, but nothing on either Canary Mission report. An attempt to drill down with the search term Tlaib “Canary Mission” narrowed it down to 253 non-pertinent returns.
- Reuters: Zero.
- CNN: One hit on a link to a video of Tlaib ‘tear[ing] up’ during her defense against the censure motion, but nothing on the Canary Mission reports. CNN’s search functions are terrible and rudimentary, but a search on Tlaib Hamas doesn’t seem to generate any link to coverage of Canary Mission’s reports … although it does produce a link to CAIR’s claims of ‘unprecedented’ Islamophobic bias complaints. Priorities, priorities.
- NBC News: Zero. Again, Tlaib Hamas also doesn’t return any story covering the Canary Mission reports, but it does return a lot of non-pertinent coverage.
- ABC News. Zero pertinent returns.
- CBS News: Zero pertinent returns. (CBS’ search feature does not return a unique URL.)
- Fox News: Good luck using their search feature. It’s worse than CNN’s. I’ll just give them the benefit of the doubt and assume they mention the Canary Mission report.
- New York Post: Zero? Zero. Maybe we shouldn’t give Fox News (same parent company) the benefit of doubt after all. For that matter, News Corp’s Wall Street Journal hasn’t covered it either.
- Al Jazeera? Zero. (I expected nothing more, of course.)
Is that enough proof for you?
Please be aware that Adam Kredo’s article does not just site the six claims of tlaib’s direct involvement with hamas, but shows Canary Mission’s in-depth description of each claim. If you read it you will find that this is not just a “we accuse”, but detailed evidence of each one.
But, to that list of significant mainstream media? Not worth reporting. Let’s not dare to insult rashida tlaib by telling our viewers/readers who she is deeply involved with. No, no, no. That wouldn’t be nice. After all, why would the public need to know that a sitting member of congress has deep abiding ties to a terrorist group committed, in writing, to the obliteration of Israel and, more broadly, to the killing of all Jews everywhere?
As anyone who reads this blog knows, I have had little or no regard for our mainstream media for years.
If this doesn’t tell you why, I give up.
