Rashida Tlaib urges Biden to get names of IDF troops from Abu Akleh shooting

2022-07-11

[JPost] This pug-faced Paleo Terror Tool needs a reality slap.
During his trip to Israel, US President Joe Biden should obtain the names of soldiers involved in the operation in which Al Jazeera journalist Shireen Abu Akleh was killed, US Congresswoman Rashida Tlaib said in a statement on Friday.

"During his upcoming meeting with Israeli Prime Minister Yair Lapid, President Biden must obtain the names of the soldiers responsible for killing Shireen, along with that of their commanding officer, so that these individuals can be fully prosecuted for their crimes by the Department of Justice," Tlaib wrote.

Abu Akleh's death was likely a "targeted assassination," said Tlaib, citing a probe by the UN High Commissioner for Human Rights, and open-source intelligence investigations by news outlets such as CNN and The Washington Post.

Tlaib said that the US State Department and FBI must open a criminal investigation of Abu Akleh since she was an American citizen.

The IDF has said that it will not open have military police open a criminal investigation into the incident with the information currently available

"When an American citizen is murdered abroad, it is typically standard procedure for the US to open a criminal investigation," she wrote. "But in this case, the State Department and the Biden Administration have yet to launch an independent US investigation."

#7 Congresswoman Tlaib represents part of Detroit, Michigan, but no more. She has no power beyond that and the floor of the House of Representatives, and there only the power to make deals with her fellow politicians and promises to her constituents.
