Rosenberg, who identifies as a “Rabbi for Peace,” has drawn criticism from many in the Jewish community for her stance on Israel. Despite her title, some have questioned her commitment to traditional Jewish values and her allegiance to the state of Israel.
This meeting between Omar and Rosenberg has sparked outrage among conservatives, who view Omar as being sympathetic to anti-Israel sentiments. Many have condemned the congresswoman for associating with someone who they believe does not represent the true spirit of Judaism and is working against the interests of Israel.
Critics argue that Omar’s decision to meet with Rosenberg only adds to the perception that she is not a friend to Israel and is willing to align herself with individuals who espouse anti-Israel rhetoric. They fear that this meeting could further embolden those who seek to delegitimize Israel on the world stage.
As tensions in the region continue to escalate, this meeting has only fueled the fire of controversy surrounding Omar and her stance on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. Conservatives are closely watching her actions and are increasingly wary of her influence on U.S. foreign policy in the Middle East.
