Isnt' it time the world dealt with these israeli terrorists?

"- The settlers attacked vehicles belonging to diplomats from France, Belgium and Poland near the Palestinian Christian village of Taybeh in the occupied West Bank on Saturday.

- At least seven masked settlers surrounded the vehicles, demanded identification documents, smashed the window of a vehicle belonging to the Belgian consulate, and assaulted the mayor of the French village of Aulnoye-Aymeries, Bernard Baudox, according to witnesses and media reports.

- Belgium’s Foreign Minister Maxime Prevot said Belgium’s consul general to the Palestinians, as well as French and Polish diplomats, and Catholic representatives were also among those attacked.

- French Foreign Minister Jean-Noel Barrot called on Israel’s government to arrest the settlers who assaulted Baudox, and said it must “urgently put an end to this criminal violence and ensure the safety of the civilian population”."

In a letter sent to #DOJ prosecutors, attorneys Amy Jeffress & Joshua Matz condemned the investigation into Omar’s #immigration history as a politically motivated attack on one of #Trump’s chief critics, saying it “violates Representative Omar’s constitutional rights & threatens the #SeparationOfPowers.”

I have no doubt it’s true.

Lawyers for Rep #IlhanOmar (D-Minnesota) on Friday accused federal authorities of ignoring key restrictions that a #judge placed on the search of the lawmaker’s DC residence this week & demanded the immediate return of all property seized from the home.

In the US, it is a crime for a person without a #law #license to hold himself out as a lawyer and to use such titles as “Lawyer”, “Attorney”, “Esquire”, “Counsel”, “Legal Counsel”, or “General Counsel”. A minor exception is the use of the “JD” appellation by an unlicensed individual who does have a law degree.

To be licensed as a lawyer, one must have passed the bar examination, be vetted by the state bar to be a person of good character, and be sworn in as a member the bar. All jurisdictions—except DC, VA, VT, and CA—additionally require that to be allowed to sit for the bar exam, the applicant must have earned a degree from an ABA-accredited (that is, legitimate) law school.
