Ilhan Omar, in bizarre clip, jokes about people saying ‘Al Qaeda’ in menacing tone

10

It is unconscionable that Rep. Ilhan Omar continues to have a seat on the House Foreign Affairs Committee. Shame on Nancy Pelosi and Chuck Schumer and the Democrat Party for emboldening this despicable pro-Jihad monster. The anti-American Democrats must not just be defeated in 2020; they must be routed.

“Ilhan Omar, in bizarre clip, jokes about people saying ‘Al Qaeda’ in menacing tone,” by Lukas Mikelionis, Fox News, April 12, 2019:

Minnesota Democratic Rep. Ilhan Omar, in a newly resurfaced clip of an old interview, joked about people saying “Al Qaeda” and “Hezbollah” in a severe tone — while noting nobody says words like “America” that way.

“When I was in college, I took a terrorism class. … The thing that was interesting in the class was every time the professor said ‘Al Qaeda’ his shoulders went up,” Omar said during an interview from 2013 when she was an activist within the Somali community, chuckling as she imitated the professor saying “Al Qaeda” and “Hezbollah.”

Omar went on to contrast the way people say the names of terror groups with how they pronounce the names of western powers:

“But you know, it is that you don’t say ‘America’ with an intensity, you don’t say ‘England’ with the intensity. You don’t say ‘the army’ with the intensity,” she continued. “… But you say these names [Al Qaeda] because you want that word to carry weight. You want it to be something.”

Omar made the remarks during an interview on the show “Belahdan” on Twin Cities PBS that was first unearthed by Fox News in February. Omar’s office did not respond to Fox News’ request for comment on the clip.

She can belittle America and express it freely because she is in America and it should be a testimony to how GREAT our country is that you can speak freely your grudges without fear of retaliation.

For if she was to reverse engineer this thought and tried to belittle an Arab country in the same manner as a Christian there she would be dead in a week, raped and beheaded in that order.

Obviously NP and CS have no shame. Obviously Omar is the one they want. So who has the responsibility for ousting those two for sedition, treason, unAmerican activities or whatever else can be used to get them out of Congress? Omar is not acting alone she is being enabled and supported by NP and CS.

‘i.omar’, alquida and hisboolia are BOTH TERRORIST organizations. However, America is a concept of PEACE and COOPERATION between all of We the People. We the People do not consider ourselves to be “superior” to others as the mohamMADans do. Besides, Most of America was BUILT using the Judeo-Christian belief system. It is of late that the DemocRATic communistic/islamic/nwo party has strayed from the truth. These Dems worship the IDOL of money and power. You on the other have worship a meteor of BLACK ROCK that lies exposed in the corner of a BLACK SQUARE SHACK so your “faithful” can kiss your IDOL. IF you were to look at Russia now, many of their people are turning back to God.

It was NOT funny, Ilhan, at all. If a white guy had joked that way about the KKK, the left would have torn them to pieces by now.
