Preparations are under way in Beit Ur al-Fauqa, 14 km. west of Ramallah, to welcome Palestinian-American Congresswoman Rashida Tlaib (D-Michigan) when she visits her hometown next month.
Tlaib’s mother, Fatmeh, and grandmother, Um Issa, traveled to Jordan earlier this week to attend a wedding of a relative. The two women are expected to return to their village in the coming days to participate in preparations for the congresswoman’s visit. The Tlaib clan is one of three clans in Beit Ur al-Fauqa, home to some 1,000 people. The two other clans in the village are Samara and Zahran.
Residents boasted that the village has one of the highest percentage of educated people. More than 20 village residents hold high positions in Palestinian Authority ministries and other Palestinian institutions in Ramallah, including banks.
Members of the three clans told The Jerusalem Post on Wednesday that “everyone in the village” will come out to greet Rep. Tlaib during her visit. “We’re all proud of her,” said Ahmed Abdullah Tlaib, one of her uncles. “Of course, everyone here is excited that she’s coming to visit her village.”

May they love her so much that they keep her !!!
Make her President of the PLO and maybe she will stay.
so shes a terrorist supporter that figures...she needs to stay were she belongs
Don't let that America-hating terrorist back in the country!
Our prayers would be answered!
Gee I thought she didn't want to go back. She is welcome to stay there.
I wonder if she walks around telling everyone how terrible the village is and mostly racist.
The West Bank doesn’t have any laws of domestic violence or sexual abuse. I wonder if she will get a BULL HORN and demand for the leader to be impeached ? Or call him a racist and rapist?!
For the first time in her life she will be safe and protected in her country.
I dont trust her in Congress
what is she blew herself up...in the name of Islam in DC
imagine all the Muslims cheering
Cancel her passport as soon as she lands there.
