Michael Waltz on Tlaib, Omar: ‘The Israelis Have Every Right to Deny Someone to Come’

EXCERPT:

WALTZ: “My understanding is that all freshmen were invited. I think they really could have learned a lot. We’ve heard everything from a woman who lives on a kibbutz and has seven seconds, an Israeli woman who has seven seconds to get her entire family into a shelter before rockets come raining down from Hamas and Gaza. All the way up to the Syrian border and the Lebanese border where Hezbollah is literally digging tunnels to be able to attack Israeli cities. The bottom line is it was bipartisan, we heard from across the board, I wish they would have come. I understand the Israeli government’s position and allowing them to come. I would have supported that. Kevin McCarthy supported that. But once they saw that their agenda was solely to go to the West Bank, and they are such avid backers of this BDS movement — look, the Israelis have every right to deny someone to come."
