Clearly, Tlaib and her allies want to transform those structures radically.
She also says: “They thought they could kill us, rape us, imprison us, violently uproot us from our olive tree farms, starve our children to death, and we would disappear. Well, guess what, now we are in Congress and we’re [in] every corner of the United States. Y’all, they just don’t get it. They just don’t get it. They will never truly comprehend, even after seven decades, that we aren’t going anywhere. We are just getting started. I want to say to all of them, every genocide enabler, look at this room, motherf**kers, we ain’t going anywhere.”
Who is “we”? “Palestinians”? Muslims? Hamas jihadis? She should be asked, and the answer given careful scrutinty.
“Rashida Tlaib At Detroit Palestine Conference: I Say To Every ‘Genocide Enabler’: You Motherf*ers, We Ain’t Going Anywhere; We Are Now In Congress, Every Corner Of The U.S.; We Are Just Getting Started; The Political Structures Of This Country Were Built On Slavery, Genocide And Rape; Activist Nidal Jboor: Criminals And Child Murderers – In Tel Aviv, Washington, Or Germany – Must Be ‘Taken Out’ And ‘Neutralized’; It Is Time To Escalate; Influencer Hasan Piker: F**k The UK!,” MEMRI, August 29, 2025:
At the People’s Conference for Palestine in Detroit on August 29–31, 2025, Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-MI) said: “They thought they could kill us, rape us, imprison us, violently uproot us from our olive tree farms… Well, guess what, now we are in Congress and we’re [in] every corner of the United States.” She added: “I want to say to all of them, every genocide enabler, look at this room, you motherf***ers, we ain’t going anywhere.”
Rep. Tlaib also spoke at last year’s People’s Conference for Palestine, held in Detroit, Michigan May 24-26, 2024. The event was closely affiliated with the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP), which was designated by the U.S. in 1997 as a Foreign Terrorist Organization and in 2001 as a Specially Designated Global Terrorist. The 2024 conference featured a pre-recorded video message by Dearborn, Michigan Mayor Abdullah Hammoud, and similar messages by high-profile officials of designated terror organizations.

In the 2025 conference, Michigan doctor Nidal Jbour of Doctors Against Genocide said that “Gaza needs to be saved now,” and added: “Now it’s time to escalate and act.”
Prominent Texas Islamic scholar Omar Suleiman advised listeners to name their children after Palestinian “martyrs” and to teach them to grow up to be like them and that they are their “extension on earth.” Suleiman is the president of the Yaqeen Institute for Islamic Research in Irving, Texas, an adjunct professor of Islamic studies and member of the Ethics Center Advisory Board at Southern Methodist University in Dallas, and the resident scholar at the Valley Ranch Islamic Center, also in Irving. In September 2021, he spoke at a rally on behalf of Dr. Aafia Siddiqui, a Pakistani neuroscientist who is serving an 86-year sentence for attempted murder of U.S. military personnel and who is known for her affiliation with Al-Qaeda, that was held in front of FMC Carswell in Fort Worth, Texas, where Dr. Siddiqui is being held.
UC Berkeley professor Hatem Bazian, who is National Chairman of American Muslims for Palestine (AMP), said that Gaza should be the focal point on campuses. He added that “the time is today to liberate the university.” Bazian is also co-founder of Students for Justice in Palestine (SJP) and a professor at UC Berkeley (see MEMRI TV clips nos. 12239, 12040, 12014, 11822, 11947). He heads the Muslim Legal Fund of America (MFLA), which represented the Holy Land Foundation, which has been investigated for funneling funds to Hamas, and five of its members served prison sentences for their terror-linked activity.
Influencer Hasan Piker discussed the prescription of Palestine Action as a terrorist organization in the UK and the British decision to recognize a Palestinian state, and said: “F*** the UK!”
Former Democratic Front for the Liberation of Palestine (DFLP) political bureau member Omar Assaf said that the BDS movement is a “major axis,” and it needs to expand.
The conference was streamed live on BreakThrough News on YouTube.

Nidal Jboor: “Gaza needs to be saved now. It saved all of us, liberated all of us. It is time for us to pay back and stop the criminals, the perpetrators, the child murderers. And we all know who they are. We all know who they are, whether they are in Israel, in Tel Aviv, in Washington, in Germany, in Europe. We all name them. We all know them. They need to be locked up. They need to be taken out. They need to be neutralized to save children, to save children. To save humanity.
“We are not saying this out of hate, we are saying this out of love. Out of love for the children, love for life. Love for humanity where every life is equal. We only hate the war criminals, the killer murderers. We need to act now. Speaking up alone is not enough, it’s too two years old. We have been speaking up for two years, now it’s time to escalate and to act.”

Omar Suleiman: “Sustaining our stories means that the names are not forgotten. That we name our children after our martyrs. And that we teach them to grow up to be like them.

Hatem Bazian: “Gaza should be the focal point on campus. My campus is Gaza. Encampments are Gaza. The library is Gaza. The research is Gaza. And we need to connect it to every part of the struggle.

The time is today for a free Palestine. The time is today to liberate the university. The time is today for decolonization. We need…”

Hasan Piker: “The reason why there is additional pressure from Western states, like the prescription of Palestine Action in the UK… That’s right, I know. Fuck the UK. Participating, participating in genocide while also simultaneously offering conditional recognition to a Palestinian state… Palestine exists. The Palestinians exist. It’s not up to you to decide that.”
[…]
Omar Assaf: “I think that the boycott – the BDS – constitutes a major axis, in all its aspects. There is no need to go into details. The economic boycott, the academic boycott, the media boycott, and many other aspects… The boycott needs to expand – boycott by students… There should be lists of products that need to be boycotted.”

This is rich coming from a person who practices a death cult. Islam has done every single thing she is bitching and moaning about.

Here’s an idea for you, go back to where Islam is the major political system and see how far you get in govt. I’ll wait.

R. Talib: “built on slavery, and genocide, and rape, and oppression”. That sure sounds like Islam, except she forgot booty. Such a sad vulgar human being.
Omar Assaf: “There should be lists of products that need to be boycotted.”
Talk about lazy Muslims, all mouth and no work. I easily found boycott lists of Israeli products years ago.
Just now I did an internet search for Israeli product boycott lists – 10 sites with product lists on the first page!!
They are all posturing for the media who will print it and still not do the background work to understand the conflict. They are all so incredibly lazy, creating echo chambers of falsehoods ready for consumption by the spoon-fed.

What has the “lazy” palestinian rep for gazan muzzies done to improve life for Americans?

Given Congress a new image and vocabulary?
As we have learned, Vulgar-mouth Talib is in US government to represent “Palestine” and Ilhan Omar is in US government to represent Samolia. Omar is now a three-decade millionaire and can finally afford the best headdress, all without being loyal to anything or obeying immigration law. Must be a political prodigy.

No Tlaib that’s Islam starting with Mohammad and continuing to this very day. But she is correct stealth Jihad is in America and we’re doing nothing to stop it. Take a look at Europe, that’s America next. Wake up

It sure appears like the People’s Conference for Palestine was one big hate and anger fest. In light of what Rashida Tlaib’s participation in the People’s Conference for Palestine and what she said in that conference this woman should be removed from the United States Congress. She is very clearly opposed to and against the United States of America.

So WHY don’t these America haters just LEAVE and go back to that oh so special place they complain about? Why? Because >95% of her constituents get US govt benefits and don’t work, the thousands Obama and Hillary (laundering USAID $ to Soros and for-profit Christian NGOs) brought here as ‘refugees’ so they would be eligible for EVERY US gov benefit AND citizenship to vote for the likes of her, Omar and the other America haters. No welfare in Gaza or Somalia. Do or should mosques and I-centers get tax exemption considering the kind of anti-American hate and politics preached there and in their schools?

NATIONAL SECURITY…/And Shariah For All?
Diana West |Posted: Sep 15, 2007
The story of the week wasn’t Gen. David Petraeus’ testimony on Iraq, although it dominated the headlines. The story of the week wasn’t the sixth return of Sept. 11 since the jihad atrocity of 2001, although it inspired many public statements and ceremonies. The week’s biggest story garnered little press and few comments. But, in a significant way, this overlooked story — an outrageous display of police force in Brussels on Sept. 11, 2007 — symbolizes the missing link in our flawed comprehension of both Iraq and Sept. 11.
There, in the so-called capital of Europe, 200 people marked the day with a protest against the Islamization of Europe — a civilizational shift which, as Europe increasingly accommodates Shariah (Islamic law), is shockingly advanced. Indeed, Middle East expert Bernard Lewis has already predicted Europe will become Islamic by century’s end. Absent a reversal of Islamization (which remains possible) I’m guessing sooner than that.
The assembly, sponsored by Stop the Islamization of Europe (SIOE), was wholly peaceful — at least until Belgian police showed up. With a chopper above, water cannon nearby, they didn’t break heads, exactly — nothing so kind as that. In a photo that should be titled The New Face of Fascism (see it at http://www.brusselsjournal.com/node/2441), we see black-clad Belgian policemen brutalizing a man in a light-colored suit and tie. His hands are cuffed behind his back, his right elbow is clasped in what is known as an arm-bar hold, and he is also being subjected to a genital hold — a vicious grip that, a retired cop friend of mine tells me, would get any American policeman thrown off the force.
The man under arrest was Frank Vanhecke, president of the Flemish secessionist party Vlaams Belang and a member of European Parliament. Also arrested and beaten was Filip Dewinter, who, as the leading politician of Vlaams Belang, Belgium’s largest opposition party, has personally garnered 25 percent of the electorate. (You can find a picture of Belgian police forcing Dewinter to the ground online at kleinverzet.blogspot.com.)
These men are invariably described as “far-right” politicians, as though “far-right”-ness alone (whatever that means when totalitarian police tactics are considered tolerant left) is rationale enough for harsh treatment. I’ve met both men and know them as free-market, small-government conservatives who deeply believe Western civilization is worth defending against the Islamization that occurs with the entrenchment of Shariah. Indeed, they are bravely trying to prevent Europe’s Islamization, practically by themselves. I say “bravely” because in Europe these days, as we know from the Islam-motivated murders of Pim Fortuyn and Theo van Gogh, such beliefs can get you killed.
Maybe so, a reader might say. But what does protesting Shariah in Europe have to do with either American policy in Iraq or Sept. 11?
The answer is everything. What were the attacks of Sept. 11 all about? Al Qaeda’s terrorist plot was designed not only to strike at the United States, but also to advance the cause of establishing an Islamic caliphate — a world government ruled according to Shariah, which, among other things, forbids criticism of Islam. Polls indicate that sizable numbers of Muslims (solid majorities in key countries), regardless of their opinion of Al Qaeda, share this same goal of a Shariat-based, Islamic caliphate. This is a highly significant overlap between the goals of Islamic terrorism and what we think of as mainstream Islam.
Meanwhile, though, in our childish, PC wisdom (accepted across the political spectrum), we have let Islam off the hook when it comes to terrorism, sticking to the story that our whole problem is with a Tiny Band of Extremists That Hijacked Islam, not the jihadist teachings of Islam itself. To make the story stick, we also seem to ignore the impetus behind Islamic terrorism — the imposition of Shariah, what with its ultimate institutional denigrations of non-Muslims and women, and its denial of freedom of conscience and expression.
This blinkered view of Islam explains how even in our commemorations of Sept. 11 we ignore the ongoing threat to liberty posed by the spread of Shariah across the West, which the SIOE was trying to protest. It even helps explain our confusion over Iraq, where, ignoring the formative influence of Shariah on the native culture, we are stumped by our failures to remake Iraq in our own Western image.
There is another consequence of our blindness: a terrible indifference to cultural allies in Europe who are fighting its Islamization — a cataclysm for the liberty-based West.
We ignore them at our peril.

Robert keeps telling us how bad things are in UK, he should think more about how bad things are in USA. We do not have any muslim fanaticsin our parliament like the squad in Congress, who mout of constantly about destroying USA, nor do we have a pernicious organisation like CAIR that also preaches Islam and talks about the overthrow of the American way of life, and supports the enemies of USA and Israel both inside and out.
