Here’s the left’s next great idea for bringing down President Trump: another women’s march. Which means another public instance of Trump haters shouting slogans to one another and mistaking it for constructive politics. What progressives need to defeat Trump is outreach, but all they have is outrage.
On March 8, organizers seem to be aiming for a different vibe than the librarians-in-pussy-hats element that made the first women’s march after Trump’s inauguration so adorable.
Instead of milling around Washington, organizers have in mind a “general strike” called the Day without a Woman. In a manifesto published in The Guardian on Feb. 6, the brains behind the movement are calling for a “new wave of militant feminist struggle.” That’s right: militant, not peaceful.
The document was co-authored by, among others, Rasmea Yousef Odeh, a convicted terrorist. Odeh, a Palestinian, was convicted in Israel in 1970 for her part in two terrorist bombings, one of which killed two students while they were shopping for groceries. She spent 10 years in prison for her crimes. She then managed to become a US citizen in 2004 by lying about her past (great detective work, INS: Next time, use Google) but was subsequently convicted, in 2014, of immigration fraud for the falsehoods. However, she won the right to a new trial (set for this spring) by claiming she had been suffering from PTSD at the time she lied on her application. Oh, and in her time as a citizen, she worked for a while as an ObamaCare navigator....

You mean, no one is gonna nag us about keeping the toilet seat up or telling us they’ll be ready in 5 minutes which turns to an hour etc...? For one day? Is this heaven?
Well, not having Keith Ellison for DNC Grand Wizard is a disappointment, but the fallout from this fiasco will make up for it.
All Bundies (plural for Bundy?) Will rejoice!
imagine one moment if men marched out saying “a day without women”... face palm.
Actually , if men stopped working, at this game, just like in zislam, women would do all the work, or knd of... I bet you 70% of women out there have a man because they need someone changing light bulbs and fixing their car.
Oh man, can you imagine the office if this actually happened--as opposed to being ignored, like the recent "Day without a Meskin," which you probably didn't catch? Can you imagine the beer-pong and the pizza, the crude jokes, the sports channels on the TV, the bosses finally getting to chill with the guys. . . ?
Back on earth. No woman who needs to make a living will blow off work except for injury, illness, pregnancy, birth, or death.
Here's what will happen: Some actresses will dress down for the cameras in LA (very carefully) and spend the day not working as usual. And maybe some NEA teachers and tenured female professors at nut-job colleges on the coasts and in Michigan and Minnesota will sit around the snack bar showing each other their unshaven legs.
All the other women will show up for work as usual. They're not stupid. After all, most of the white ones voted for Trump.
NO MAAM (NATional Organization for Men Against Amazon Masterhood) XD
My daughter said the only people who took off for “no immigrants” day were college students, most of them not immigrants anyway. I expect the same outcome for “no women” day.
Most need men for sex...They don't know how to replace the battery in the dildo...
The “Day Without Immigrants” was such a bang-up success that it should be repeated with every other identity group on the left.
Some genuine illegal immigrants took the day off and were fired for it. Several stories here on FR...
“Shad-up, woman. Gemme a samich!”
Thank you Kyle for a great, new tag line.
Long time coming, the implosion of the Left is interesting to watch. ‘bout damned time.
Rasmea Yousef Odeh (born 1947/1948; also known as Rasmea Yousef, Rasmieh Steve, and Rasmieh Joseph Steve)[2][3] is a Palestinian woman and former United States citizen. She served as associate director at the Arab American Action Network in Chicago, Illinois.[4][5][6][7]
Odeh was convicted in 1970 by an Israeli military court of involvement in fatal terrorist bombings, and in 2014 by a US federal jury of immigration fraud. She was sentenced to life in prison in Israel for her involvement in two terrorist bombings in Jerusalem in 1969, one of which killed two people, and involvement in an illegal organization, the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP). She spent 10 years in prison before she was released in a prisoner exchange with the PFLP in 1980.[8]
Odeh was convicted of immigration fraud on November 10, 2014, by a jury in federal court in Detroit, Michigan, for concealing her arrest, conviction, and imprisonment for the 1969 bombings.[9][10] On December 11, 2014, she was released on bond pending sentencing.[10][11][12] Odeh's counsel maintains she did not receive a "full and fair trial" because the judge ruled as irrelevant her testimony that her confession to the crimes had been extracted by torture while she was in the custody of Israeli police in 1969.[11] On February 13, 2015, federal Judge Gershwin A. Drain denied Odeh's request that he either overturn the federal jury’s conviction of her or grant her a new trial. He ruled that her argument lacked legal merit, as evidence showed that Odeh illegally obtained U.S. citizenship, the jurors "clearly did not believe [her] explanation", and that "the evidence was more than sufficient to support the jury’s verdict."[13][14]
Odeh was sentenced to 18 months in federal prison on March 12, 2015, stripped of her US citizenship, and will be deported from the United States to Jordan once she is done serving her time.[15][16][17][17][18] She is free on bail while she appeals.[15] Her conviction was vacated by the 6th Circuit Court of Appeals and sent back to the District Court in February 2016.
Send her back
