Is it not wonderful:

NO tourism in the USA.

Banana Republic tactics.

Husband has just decided not to attend a Conference in the USA.

NO foresight.

If y'all live outside the US, I would have made the same decision as your husband. Soon enough, it's going to be the other way around: "Escape from New York" and "Escape from LA".

Thank you for your courage. Ken, without you I’d be sucking up lies of corporate media. Than

Yet another reason to be outraged. Thank you, Ken.

This is just hilariously ridiculous. I am amazed that they aren't even pretending to care if people entering the country have ever said "Down with the USA!" or "US is the Great Satan!" or stuff like "Hang all Black people" or "Kill Whitey!" - Nah, all of that's just peachy. But don't you dare support a Palestinian state or criticize Israel.

Do they know how this makes them look? If so, I guess they just don't care because Israel really does have so much sway over this administration -OR- maybe this is just a trial balloon and they'll be adding to the list later on?

Israel has no right to be given a Visa waiver being they are actively engaged in a Genocide and ethnic cleansing in the occupied areas, oops I mean Judea and Samaria hahaha Bwahaha

Netanyahu is sought after by the International Court for crimes against Humanity. In helping him, we help a criminal. We are also in breach of the Leahy laws.[ And sadly, so was Biden and his predecessors.

We have given billions of dollars to the State of Israel since its inception in 1948.

But since Netanyahu rose to power, things have rapidly slid into genocide.

A person can be in favor of the existence of the State of Israel but be against what this corrupt leader is doing. [Just like many nations love the United States but cannot condone what Trump and his regime are doing.]

Gaza genocide is a US genocide

Sadly true: It is American bombs falling on Gaza.

Two States solution, if these folks just can't get along might be a solution. The other solution is to give to Palestinians the same human rights as Israelis.

The most salient problem is the blatant inequality of treatments between Palestinians and Israelis in Israel. Solve that and you solve the problem
