Ilhan Omar recounts ‘complete horror’ of 9/11 attacks in somber video
|
[NYPOST] Lightning-rod Rep. Ilhan Omar
...Somali-American Dem representative from Minnesota. She is apparently married to her brother and may be her own grandmaw on her mother's side...
‐ who previously sparked outrage with a comment minimizing the 9/11 terror attacks ‐ posted a somber video on Twitter on Wednesday commemorating the anniversary and recounting the "complete horror" she and her family felt following the terror attacks.
"On September 11th we experienced one of the most horrific terrorist attacks that we have ever lived through as a nation. Today, we remember the victims, the first responders and their loved ones. #Neverforget," the Minnesota Democrat wrote on the post, which included the nearly minute-long video.
"I was 18 years old when that happened. I was in a classroom in college and I remember rushing home after being dismissed and getting home and seeing my father in complete horror as he sat in front of that TV. And I remember just feeling, like the world was ending," said Omar, who, along with Michigan Rep. Rashida Tlaib, are the only two Moslem women in Congress.
"The events of 9/11 were life-changing, life-altering for all of us," she said. "My feeling around it is one of complete horror. None of us are ever going to forget that day and the trauma that we will always have to live with."
