Article is from the only Israeli paper to sponsor peace conferences

Omar received support Wednesday from Senators Sanders , Warren, and Harris, candidates in the upcoming Democratic primaries.

Sanders:"Anti-Semitism is a hateful and dangerous ideology which must be vigorously opposed in the United States and around the world. We must not, however, equate anti-Semitism with legitimate criticism of the right-wing, Netanyahu government in Israel. Rather, we must develop an even-handed Middle East policy which brings Israelis and Palestinians together for a lasting peace. What is going on in the House targets Congresswoman Omar to stifle debate. That’s wrong."

Harris: "We should be having a sound, respectful discussion about policy. You can both support Israel and be loyal to our country. There is a difference between criticism of policy or political leaders, and anti-Semitism."

"Just as The Tipping Point provides an explanation for big changes, Rob Kall offers a unified explanation for the magic behind the success of the biggest tech companies, the Arab Spring, Occupy and the social media revolution An important, big picture, visionary approach weaving together technology, economics, evolution, science and personal relationships -- even happiness -- to describe a wave of change as significant as the invention of the printing press that is well under way -- a wave that could rescue the planet from the top-down system that afflicts the planet."
