Germany has deported terrorist Rasmea Odeh, who was slated to headline a BDS event in Berlin, thanks to intervention by US Ambassador to Germany, Richard Grenell, by way of a starkly worded letter, outlining the terrorist’s history and purpose.

It happened on January 24, when Labour Party Shadown Foreign Minister Emily Thornberry sent a letter to British Foreign Secretary Jeremy Hunt, equating Iran’s military support for Syria’s Bashar al-Assad …
It’s a tragedy when anyone is murdered, no matter their religion, especially when they are young. But in the wake of the horrific murder of Israeli Arab Aiia Maasarwe, some have expressed a repugnant thought: that it’s fine when the murder victims are Jewish Israelis.
