Ilhan Omar: Bernie Sanders ‘a President Who Will Fight Against Western Imperialism’

2019-11-05

[BREITBART] Antisemitic 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...
(D-MN) campaigned for presidential hopeful Sen. Bernie Sanders

...The ~~only~~ first openly Socialist member of the U.S. Senate. Sanders was Representative-for-Life from Vermont until moving to the Senate for the rest of his life in 2006, assuming the seat vacated by Jim Jeffords. He ran for the 2016 nomination for president, to be cheated out of it by Hillary Clinton, then went back to being a socialist, waiting for 2020 to roll around...
(I-VT) in Minneapolis on Sunday night where she said she is "excited for President Bernie Sanders."

"I am beyond honored and excited for a president who will fight against Western imperialism and fight for a just world," Omar told the crowd of Sanders supporters. "I am excited for President Bernie Sanders."

Omar went on to claim that a "movement" must be built in order for Sanders to take the White House from President Donald Trump
...The tack in the backside of the Democratic Party...
"Here’s the cold truth: We can’t achieve any of these goals if we don’t build a movement that is representative of all of our aspirations, all of our pain, and all of our shared trauma," Omar said. "That is why we must build a mass movement of the working class that transcends faith, age, gender, and background."

"That’s what we fight for here in Minnesota every single day and that’s the movement that Senator Bernie Sanders is building" Omar continued. "Bernie knows that systematic change in this country has never taken place without millions of people organizing to demand that change."

"That is the history of the labor movement, the history of the women’s liberation movement, that is the history of the civil rights movement, and the LGBTQ movement, and the disability rights under equal justice movement," the freshman Minnesota Congresswoman added.

#4 ...well, yeah, sort of skipping over conquest and conversion by the sword.

#2 Wow! I don't think I've heard the "imperialism" bogey since about 1970.

#1 Amazing how so many who denounce 'western imperialism' seem to live comfortably in it without any thought of the hypocrisy of their existence.
