"The outrageous progressive litmus test on Israel by [Tlaib] is nothing short of antisemitic." And: "Proud progressives do support Israel's right to exist as a Jewish and democratic state. Suggesting otherwise is shameful and dangerous."
Why It’s Conflation
Tlaib made a claim about a government and about what progressives should support. You can think she’s wrong. It’s an argument about politics. Wasserman Schultz called it antisemitic.
What Actually Happened
Tlaib: "among progressives, it has become clear that you cannot claim to hold progressive values, yet back Israel's apartheid government."
