Freshman congresswoman Rep. Rashida Tlaib’s (D-MI) most recent foray into the news cycle is not simply a vile twisting of history; it is also a mechanism designed to generate conflict. It is an in-your-face reconstruction of a false history in which Palestinians purportedly saved Jewish lives in the aftermath of the Holocaust.
Responding to these distortions with fact is only half the battle, for Tlaib must know that the Grand Mufti of Jerusalem was the guest of Adolf Hitler in Berlin during World War II. It is also well known that the Mufti recruited three divisions of Bosnian Muslims for the dreaded Waffen SS, sought to defeat the British in Mandate Palestine, and to transmit Hitler’s “final solution” upon the Jews of the Middle East.
