Rep. Rashida Tlaib's, D-Mich., comments calling Israel an “apartheid state' were condemned by Permanent Representative of Israel to the United Nations Gilad Erdan.
"Tlaib is rewriting history and her antisemitic lies ignore the fact that the only ethnic cleansing took place against the 850,000 Jews who were expelled from Arab countries following Israel’s establishment," he said.
The Tlaib tweet was also the subject of an instant fact check by Twitter, with community notes visible below the tweet pointing out that Israel was created by a U.N. resolution, that ethnic cleansing"affected both Jewish and Arab communities," and that Israel has a large Arab minority that enjoys"full and equal rights."Tlaib's office did not immediately respond to a Fox News request for comment.
