#1 Uh huh
Omar’s office said the Minnesota Democrat has been ‘consistent’ in her support for arms embargos against human rights abusers, but emphasized that Omar differed with the Trump administration on the Iran nuclear deal, which President Trump withdrew from in 2018.

“Congresswoman Omar has consistently, for a long time, supported arms embargos against human rights abusers,” Omar’s office told Al-Monitor. “However, that is not to say that she supports Pompeo’s tactics or that her position on sanctions has changed, or that she is not in support of the [nuclear deal]. It was just a narrow ask that we couldn’t find anything wrong with.”

#2 No mystery here. Iran are shiites. Those same abuses done by sunnis will be all acceptable to her.

#6 Omar must have responded to only the Public Affairs part of the first paragraph and didn't read the rest.
