Israel had said Tlaib could visit relatives in the West Bank on humanitarian grounds. But then the Interior Ministry released a letter purportedly signed by Tlaib in which she promised not to advocate boycotts during her visit. That appears to have led to her decision to cancel the visit.
“Visiting my grandmother under these oppressive conditions meant to humiliate me would break my grandmother’s heart,”
“This could be my last opportunity to see her. I will respect any restrictions and will not promote boycotts against Israel during my visit,” she said. Tlaib’s office could not immediately be reached for comment on the letter’s authenticity.
Shortly after the announcement, Tlaib tweeted that she wouldn’t allow Israel to use her love for her grandmother to force her to “bow down to their oppressive & racist policies.”

So you're one of these prosemitic assholes who gloat over a foreign power trying to humiliate the US Congress ?

Just like Obama: Grandma is a useful political prop to be thrown under the bus when that becomes useful.

She asked for an exception. They granted it...She signed letter agreeing to it.. Now visiting her grandma who might not live long enough to see her isn't important, she is a POS

Make no mistake_ Trump lobbied Netanyahu to BAN US Congresswomen who don't share his anti-American and prosemitic views. That- friends- is an example of an Izrael-Firster harming America.
Secondly, Netanyahu introduced humiliating constraints for Tlaib's compassionate visit- constraints so vile that she was forced to abandon her trip to see her dying grandmother.
That's the contemptible state of Trump and Netanyahu- the latter having interfered in the elections to get Trump into power and the former trying desperately to get the latter re-elected.
Anybody supporting this disgraceful betrayal of American democracy is an asshole.

If it's so "oppressive" there why didn't she get Granny out of there years ago?
Abortion rights dogma can obscure human reason & harden the human heart so much that the same person who feels
empathy for animal suffering can lack compassion for unborn children who experience lethal violence and excruciating
pain in abortion.
Unborn animals are protected in their nesting places, humans are not. To abort something is to end something
which has begun. To abort life is to end it.
