| Given that Hamas is the Gazan branch of the Muslim Brotherhood — though soon to take over the West Bank as well, if current efforts succeed — and CAIR, et al are the various projects of the Muslim Brotherhood in the U.S., Ms Barr’s mental shorthand is true. |
In an exclusive interview with Breitbart News in Tel Aviv on Monday evening, Barr said BDS has "infected" the Democratic Party.
Asked what she thought of the newly-installed outspoken BDS proponents Tlaib (D-MI) and Omar (D-MN), Barr said, "We have Hamas in Congress."
Both Tlaib and Omar have come under fire for invoking anti-Semitic tropes in relation to Israel. Tlaib, a Palestinian-American, seemingly deployed a "dual loyalty" canard when she accused proponents of anti-BDS legislation of "forgetting which country they represent," while Somali-American Omar once charged "evil" Israel with "hypnotizing the world."
Barr pooh-poohed recent remarks made by two top Jewish Democrats, Reps. Eliot Engel (D-NY) and Ted Deutch (D-FL), who maintained that the Democratic Party will remain steadfast in its support of Israel and that Omar and Tlaib are the only two people to express such views within the party.
"There's a lot more than that," she said.
"The Democratic Party will eventually move to [being] pro-BDS," Barr told Breitbart News.
According to the funnywoman, "BDS is another incarnation of Jew-hating" that has been going on for centuries.
