Muslim Rep. Ilhan Omar amplifies Israel dual loyalty charge, dismissing Dem rebukes |
2019-03-04 |
[Washington Examiner] Rep. Ilhan Omar has intensified her claims that some Jewish lawmakers have a dual loyalty to Israel, rejecting criticism from Democratic colleagues that she is engaging in anti-Semitism. "I should not be expected to have allegiance/pledge support to a foreign country in order to serve my country in Congress or serve on committee," Omar tweeted Sunday afternoon. "I am told everyday that I am anti-American if I am not pro-Israel. I find that to be problematic and I am not alone. I just happen to be willing to speak up on it and open myself to attacks." Omar, an aggressive first-term Democrat hoping to bring left-wing views to the Foreign Affairs Committee, has drawn rebukes from Democratic leaders after her comments about the U.S.-Israel alliance. Foreign Affairs Chairman Eliot Engel, who is Jewish, urged her on Friday to apologize for suggesting that Israel supporters "push for allegiance to a foreign country," a claim that he dubbed "a vile anti-Semitic slur." |

#8 Let's not dilly dally around. She's a racist and here's why. Understanding the muzzy fundamentalists hate for Jews comes straight from Moohamhead being rejected as a false prophet in Median. Meanwhile back at the ranch. The Minnesota fraud news is refusing to cover her islamic rants. Complete blackout on air. Dhimmcrats one and all. |

#7 About that university-bred outlook — from the honourable representative’s Wikipedia page: She graduated from North Dakota State University[13] with a bachelor's degrees in political science and international studies in 2011.[16][17] Omar was a Policy Fellow at the Humphrey School of Public Affairs.[17] |

#6 actually I smell University Marxism is a stronger influence than Islam is Omar's tweets A real Muslim would have difficulty even conceiving of loyalty to Israel (or the US). She has the marxist way of mistaking one concept (support) for another (allegiance) and a University bred tendency to crave victimhood status in every other sentence. |
