A dozen Jewish lawmakers called on Ilhan Omar to “clarify her words”, but the Minnesota representative slammed the group’s “tropes”.
This is not the first time that Ms Omar’s criticism of Israel put her at odds with members of her own party.
In 2019, she apologised for implying money was behind support for Israel.
On Monday, Ms Omar tweeted that “we have seen unthinkable atrocities committed by the US, Hamas, Israel, Afghanistan, and the Taliban”.
“We must have the same level of accountability and justice for all victims of crimes against humanity,” she wrote, including a video of her questioning Secretary of State Anthony Blinken during a committee hearing in the House of Representatives.
WYSIWYG. I dislike her immensely, but to her credit she’s honest about who she is. Better the devil you know than the devil you don’t.
Shocking liberals are criticizing her.
Wonder if we can get Nord to criticize this vile political hack.
Are you kidding, Kevin, Le Roi won’t even say bad things anout a liberal judge who watched babies being raped, is in jail now, hoping for a plea deal.
MAr,
I always beg him to take a moral stand…because it is entertaining to see the immoral depths he will go to to avoid basic decency.
