Detractors, supporters of Ilhan Omar protest in New York’s Times Square

17

A group of New Yorkers called for Ilhan Omar’s removal at a protest in Times Square yesterday. In demanding her removal, the JV reports:

….the rally organizers cite her “gross anti-Semitism” and “cavalier dismissal” of the victims of 9/11, as well as her “blaming the criminal socialist debacle and collapse of Venezuela on America,” her “specious accusations against dedicated US officials, and her disdain for America, which saved her from Islamist terror in Somalia.”

Also that month, in an attack on the American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC), she tweeted, “It’s all about the Benjamins baby,” a reference to the $100 bill featuring Benjamin Franklin.

In an interview in January with CNN’s Christiane Amanpour, the Somali-American congresswoman, an active supporter of the anti-Israel Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions (BDS) movement, defended a 2012 tweet in which she said that “Israel has hypnotized the world, may Allah awaken the people and help them see the evil doings of Israel.”

Indeed, in February, Ilhan called to completely defund the U.S. Department of Homeland Security, tweeting: “#Not1Dollar for DHS.”

A group of Omar supporters also lead a counter-protest on Monday, saying the attempts to remove Omar were an expression of racism and Islamophobia linked to white nationalism.

Omar’s detractors were expected to put up a billboard with redacted Ilhan Omar declarations side by side with shocking 9/11 imagery – but counter-protesters pushed local authorities to revoke their permit.

Instead, the group, concisely named ‘Ilhan Must Go’ opted to put the display on a truck which has taken to the streets of the Big Apple to deliver their message.

Request for billboard asking for Omar removal denied by local authorities for featuring shocking 9/11 imagery

A group asking for the removal of congressional freshwoman Ilhan Omar from the foreign affairs committee protested on New York’s Times Square on Monday.

They called for the removal of the young Minnesotan politician, one of the first two Muslim women to be elected to the US legislature, following much-publicized allegations of anti-semitism and minimizing of the 9/11 terrorist attacks.

You are a walking, talking advertisement of why WE DON’T WANT ANY MUSLIMS!
Keep talking…texting. Don’t flatter yourself either. You are a nobody. President Trump doesn’t lose sleep over you. You are the quintessential example of how Islam is not compatible with our country.

Notice these terrorists always and deliberately use immigrant when they speak of illegals They also consider anyone deliberately breaking the law as a refugee when they are actually illegal invaders.

Like Trudeau and his Liberals in Canada, laws are something to be ignored. They forget it goes both ways.

She said someone did something, meaning that it was not so important to her, thereby dismissing the thousands of victims.

“versus angel”
She asked a judge to show leniency to ISIS recruits.
Angels don’t cover their heads. That’s what demons do to hide their horns.

(and no, I am not automatically against hijabs, hats, or caps, or Islamic things, but in her case that hijab is forced on women and a symbol of gender-apartheid.)

Sadly, most of New York City is overwhelmingly left-wing and pro-Islam in the name of “tolerance and diversity”.

Ilhan Omar should really go back to Somalia, if America is THAT evil.

I find it stunning that you have Jews supporting Omar in the counter protest. One a young woman. She would have been a Capo for the Nazis at Treblinka or some other camp.
