It turns out that Rashida Tlaib has gotten a write up in a Chilean magazine Al-Damir – which means “the conscience” in Arabic – that caters to the Palestinian community in Chile.

Al Damir
November 7, 2024
(translated by app)Palestinian-born Democratic Congresswoman Rashida Tlaib who –last July – held a message calling Israel’s Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu «guilty of genocide », as the leader spoke before Congress of United States, this week has achieved a victory by defeating his Republican opponent in the Michigan Congress 12th district elections, thereby ensuring a fourth term as the only Palestinian-American woman in the United States Congress.
…
The problem is that Rashida Tlaib was born in Detroit, not “Palestine.”
Another problems is that Al Damir is connected to a questionable charity in Chile called the Palestine-Bethlehem Foundation 2000, which publishes the magazine.
However, a lot of American and European companies have bought advertising in the magazine, in the past, so that questionable connection might be a minor issue. Though it was once published in a glossy version, the magazine seems to now emphasize its online presence.
It listed its distribution here.

What is clear is that the Palestinian-Chilean community has/had enough wealth and clout to publish a magazine and attract major advertisers to it.
With all that being said, I am sure that Congresswoman Tlaib had nothing to do with this article. However, she seems to have captured an audience with the Palestinian disapora.
This is a video (below) of the sign display that the magazine article refers to.

Even though I am a mild Christian Zionist, I will make no comment about Representative Tlaib except to note that apparently she is a hero to Palestinians everywhere – even in Chile.
