So much wrong here, but she truly is the gift that keeps giving. The US accepted millions of refugees from Europe during WWII, also went, with boots on the ground. There is no “Muslim ban” it’s a ban on countries that are at high risk of bringing in violent jihadists, many of the larger muslim majority countries were never affected, and there was never calls for them to be added to the ban list.
We are in the midst of the worst refugee crisis since World War II—a time when the U.S. refused protections for millions fleeing Nazi persecution.
This decision—like the Muslim ban and family separation—will be remembered as a dark stain on our nation’s history. https://t.co/dPEQP9diyO
— Ilhan Omar (@IlhanMN) April 30, 2019
This from www.hannity.com
Controversial Congresswoman Ilhan Omar raised eyebrows among her fellow lawmakers Tuesday; bizarrely comparing President Trump’s non-existent ‘Muslim Ban’ to the ‘millions fleeing Nazi persecution’ during World War II.
“We are in the midst of the worst refugee crisis since World War II—a time when the U.S. refused protections for millions fleeing Nazi persecution. This decision—like the Muslim ban and family separation—will be remembered as a dark stain on our nation’s history,” posted Omar on social media.
The left-wing lawmaker made national headlines just weeks ago when she flippantly referred to the 9/11 terror attacks as just “some people” who “did something.”
UNIQUE says
Rep. Omar is really stupid.
gravenimage says
Omar is not stupid–she just hopes that we are.
mortimer says
Muslims are fleeing other MUSLIMS, so her analogy is false and STUPID. ISLAM IS CAUSING THEM TO FLEE TO FREEDOM IN AMERICA.
Islam is a medieval terrorist cult that cannot be reformed, so people can only flee from its influence. We don’t want this medieval death cult growing in the West. It will take away all our freedoms.
mortimer says
Why should we feel concerned when Ilhan Omar is PROMOTING the VERY DEATH CULT that is causing people to flee.
Her illogic is MIND-BOGGLINGLY STUPID. It seems to be this: “MUSLIM TERRORISTS ARE KILLING OTHER MUSLIMS in many countries … THEREFORE AMERICA IS FASCIST and America is to blame for the JIHADISM.”
Extra stupid.

“The dark stain” Omar mentions will be caused by her and her like….as well as a dark stain on the democratic party…not that they don’t have enough DARK STAINS already..
gravenimage says
Unfortunately, Mortimer, many Muslims are not so much fleeing the horrors of Islam as intending to spread them here.
Richard says
There is a valid comparison between now and Nazi Germany. The Nazis killed Jews. the Muslims want to massacre Jews. Following that line of thought, it would make helping or tolerating the Muslims akin to helping and/or tolerating the Nazis. Thanks for pointing that out, Omar!
Rod says
Omar knows more about your history than you do or than Robert Spencer does.
Before the War and during its early years, (when the boots on the ground were certainly not American), America refused entry to many thousands of Jewish refugees, the thinking being strikingly similar to that of the current dim-witted US president and his disciples.
It was only some years later that reality and common sense prevailed (will that happen today? – doubtful) and many were admitted. By then of course, escape from Nazi held territories was near impossible, and huge numbers had already been executed.
So, your apology to Ms Omar should follow.
(Try searching MS St Louis for a brief introduction to what Ms Omar could teach you).
Yohanan says
1) Rod’s comparison between today’s mainly economic immigrants and between refugees before WW2 fleeing certain Nazi genocide (e.g. the turned back St. Louis ship) is a false analogy.
2) President Trump is not dim-witted to require better vetting of terrorist and anti-American immigrants. Just the opposite — Pres. Trump upholds the law which gives the president this power and this duty. It is Rod who is blind-sighted.
3) Marc’s statement >The US accepted millions of refugees from Europe during WWII< is historically incorrect.– The restrictions of early 1920s were only moderated in 1952. See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_laws_concerning_immigration_and_naturalization_in_the_United_States
But read on in Marc's post on Omar.
Rod says
It’s not a comparison or an analogy, Yohann. The issue whether Ms Omar is telling the truth, and whether your friend Spencer is deceiving you. That’s not difficult now, is it?
Demsci says
Thank you for pointing out that the Islamic refugees in substantial part are economic, whereas the Jews back then really fled for their lives.
And I daresay that the Jews back then and since were NOT so anti-American as we suspect many Muslims to be.
OK, the Jews should have been admitted back then. But with the caveat that there was some vetting and some oath of loyalty and perhaps probation period. After all, it is reasonable that people fleeing for their lives out of gratitude and sheer Relief do find it natural to adhere to certain conditions of their saviours.
I think the Jews back then would have seen the Americans as their saviours had they been admitted and would have gladly adhered to certain conditions.
But almost no conditions are put on Muslims who are presumed to be fleeing for their lives. But is that really always the case???
In Holland and Belgium there was this scandal that certain Islamic refugees vacationed (!) in the countries where they fled from! Like Somalië, Eritrea, Iran and more.
gravenimage says
What Jews fleeing the Nazis were intent on forcing Americans to submit to their faith, and plotted to murder Americans who did not do so–as supremacist Muslims do? What absolute claptrap.
gravenimage says
True, Demsci–what “refugee” vacations in the country he supposedly has had to flee for his life?
Demsci says
So, the comparison is about 3 groups; the Nazi’s, the fleeing Jews, and the refusing American government.
And as Mortimer points out; many of the “causers” of the flight are Muslims! So the analogy is between Muslims and Nazi’s! And the situation of the refugee Muslims is not nearly as bad as that of the refugee Jews back then.
tha balance between helping the refugee Muslims in unlimited numbers and caring for the Americans themselves is much different from helping the refugee Jews in limited numbers and caring for Americans back then. The number of Muslims is sheer endless.
windrush48 says
BY LAW, this ‘creature’ IS NOT a U.S. Representative ….. in order to hold that Office, one MUST, BY LAW, hold the Constitution ABOVE ALL ELSE …… as a ‘muslim’ this is something that she CANNOT do.
Her actions are an “Act of War” against the Constitution and the Republic …. BY LAW, that is TREASON:
Constitution, Article III, Section 3; “Treason against the United States, shall consist only in levying War against them, or in adhering to their Enemies, giving them Aid and Comfort. No Person shall be convicted of Treason unless on the Testimony of two Witnesses to the same overt Act or on Confession in open Court.”

Wellington says
This is a bad human being. She is a fifth columnist if ever there were one. Unintentionally, she is highly instructive of how evil often poses as something good. Oh yeah, she’s a “poser” all right.
Omar gets almost everything ass-backwards (which is so fitting since the deluded followers of Mo pray with there asses in the air).
Wretched woman. Despicable. Hope she sticks around though because malevolence in the open (and Omar is so open about her warped view of humanity) is easier to defeat than malevolence hidden.
Wellington says
“…their asses…” and not, mon Dieu, “…there asses….”
Well, whatever, Muslims get most everything wrong about the “big issues.” So, thus and verily, grammatical mistakes, such as mine (mea culpa), never harm anyone but Muslims aplenty sure do.
Omar right now comes to mind. So do a heap of other Muslims. Tons of them, including those who gorge themselves during the dark hours of the month of Ramabutt—and fitting since Islam is dark in a far more extensive, destructive and desultory way and gorges itself upon the achievements of others with great regularity—hey, as an example, Columbus saw a mosque situated in the New World on the island of Hispaniola. Right.

I never noticed. But if I had, since you are such a literate man, I would have attributed the error to Autocorrect.

A minor typo 🙂
James Lincoln says
Wellington,
You stated, correctly:
“…malevolence in the open … is easier to defeat than malevolence hidden.”
That is so true…
I am actually surprised that she is so open about her anti-Semitic, anti-American, pro-Palestinian, pro-Islam, etc. views.
She is exposing herself on an almost daily basis – in full public display. A more “stealthy” form of jihad would be much more effective, but she just can’t help herself.
Perhaps this is good for America – it may wake up the non-Muslims who voted her into office as well as the rest people in the country who are still asleep.
PRCS says
“malevolence in the open (and Omar is so open about her warped view of humanity) is easier to defeat than malevolence hidden.”
As we discussed a long time ago, I believe she–and her pals–should be given every opportunity to keep talking.
Westman says
Pelosi should invite Ilham Omar to speak at every opportunity, perhaps following or previous to AOC. The Democrat front runner, which appears to be Biden, could have them travel and speak on the campaign trail to ensure public of confidence in the party’s candidate. If you listen carefully, you can hear Joe calling and pledging he and his son’s wealth for the 70% tax rate and, if elected, promising to make BDS against Israel his foreign policy…uhh…maybe not.
There is an allegation floating about that Omar married her brother(immigration fraud) to get him into the US. Snopes, instead of the usual declaration of “false”, simply says, “unconfirmed”. Is there any substance to this? Or is it just sour grapes?
PRCS says
1. Excelent idea.
2. Don’t know why that wasn’t fully investigated ‘before’ the election.
Flavius Claudius Iulianus says
Off topic:
I’ve heard the claim before that Greg Reese makes in this video that the Sufis predate Mohammadism and that the Sufi were, prior to Mohammadism, noble and peaceful. This is nothing but a romanticized history of the Sufis; it’s pure fantasy.
https://www.infowars.com/the-the-true-origins-of-islamophobia/
CRUSADER says
Sufis sure were eager enough to practice their handiness with scimitars.
gravenimagerract says
Perhaps some Sufi practices may have predated Islam–but ultimately this says nothing about the nature Sufism today or for the past centuries. Sufis regularly condone and practice Jihad.

Omar clearly hates America, she would be much happier in her native Somalia.
So, why doesn’t she move back to her home country?

Rep. Omar is the best hope of Islam, a Jihadist in the U.S. Congress! The Muslim Brotherhood is wild with joy!
PRCS says
I think she’s happy here, but won’t be truly happy until Islamic law becomes THE law.
gravenimagerract says
She’ll be happy if she is able to impose Islam here.
mike says
let her think what she wants she not old enough to no better shes just a taking head that needs to go back to Somali
George Gray says
What is the difference between WWII refuges and refuges that she is talking about? Did WWII refuges arrive to America to bomb Americans or build America?
Prebangian says
The worst aspect of Jihadist Omar is the American Leftists who praise and support her and support her efforts to foment chaos in the U.S.
Northern says
So what are Muslims “fleeing” to America from? Certainly not Nazis. The are fleeing from their own dysfunctional cultures. Why would we want to import that culture here?
Michael Garant says
They (the muslims) never fled the nazis, they were actually allies with them in the second world war……..they loved the fact that Hitler hate the jews and were all to eager to join him in the project.
This women is totally ignorant of the past of her sect, or distorts history to match her agenda, your pick.
Halal Bacon says

Rarely says
Marc.
The USA did NOT admit “millions of refugees from Europe” during WWII as you so erroneously state. The USA had a very low quota for Jews fleeing the Nazis leading up to and until the end of WWII. For illustration purposes look up the MS St. Louis.
Also, the US did not put “boots on the ground” to help the refugees but to defeat Nazi Germany and avoid its conquering Great Britain and thereby posing a major threat to the USA. The people of Europe benefitted enormously of course.
Now about Omar: she re-writes history to serve her twisted agenda. She will say anything, invent facts and tell any lie, however outrageous, to accomplish her goal. It’s Nazi “Big Lie” politica.
CRUSADER says
Quite so.
marc says
Thank you @Rarely, Yes, I stand corrected, I had family who were admitted from Poland in the early years of the war, originating from and speaking German/Yiddish, although Jewish were interned till the end of the war, I understand naturalization was an option, but they went to Israel in the early 50s. I did not know they were one of the luckier ones at the time. I understood there was a fairly large Polish community who came and were accepted at that time.

She is indeed the enemy within. If it was up to me, I’d have this evil little Muslima on a plane back to Islamic turd-pile Somalia so fast it would make her hijab covered head spin.

Omar the Islamonazi is too stupid to realize she just said that fleeing Muslims is like fleeing the Nazis.
sheliak says
Are there any political power brokers in Minnesota who possess enough brains and survival instincts to commit the necessary resources to mount a primary challenge against this jihadist in the House election next year?
James says
There is a difference between the European refugees and post-war immigrants and Muslims from dangerous countries. We generally did not have to be afraid of the Jews and other European immigrants the way we have to be afraid of the Muslim immigrants to America. And we did not have to watch while the Jews Judaized America or made unreasonable demands to change our culture to make it more Jewish. There is no Jewish Jihad against America, is there? And there was no Jewish insistence that Jewish members of Congress be able to wear Jewish costumes in Congress. Jewish immigrants are not constantly condemning America, calling us names and making fun of our problems with terrorism. They are not constantly donating money to anti-American terrorist groups or sending people to fight against Western troops. They do not go around cutting peoples’ heads off or running people down in autos or setting off bombs in crowded places or flying planes into buildings. So, no, I would not say there is much of a comparison between the two groups of immigrants. And Omar ought to be retired from Congress, but I doubt if her voters see it that way. Perhaps the Democrat elites could do something, if they want to.
CRUSADER says
Big Difference !
jayell says
Is she talking about the so-called ‘banning’ of muslims ‘fleeing’ from islamic countries (because they certainly don’t seem to be ‘fleeing’ from anywhere else!)? That’s as stupid and unlikely as the idea of Nazis ‘fleeing’ from the Third Reich, and who would have bought that ridiculous idea back in the 1930’s or 1940’s? It seems like specimens like Omar will concoct any spurious nonsense in order to push themselves and their agenda. And what does the average American think when she talks self-inclusively to them about ‘our country’ whilst apparently promoting an identity that doesn’t seem to be ‘American’ at all?
mortimer says
The Americans are NAZIS, you say? They have fought FOR FREEDOM in all of America’s wars since the Civil War. Islam ALWAYS fought for ENSLAVEMENT.
Ilhan Omar is an obvious fifth columnist working for the Muslim Brotherhood.
Trouble says
Champion gaslighter. There was no moslem ban! It was a ban for people coming from countries deemed to be high risk terrorist areas at the time.
And it was to be in the words of President Trump ….”. until we figure out what is going on “. This part is always omitted by deceitful somebodies. How many non moslem refugees were admitted to USA as opposed to moslems at the time? Do tell as everybody wants to know.
Omar has no problem with allowing potential terrorists in when a country and its people is under threat. What does that make her. 5th column.

Alas the joke is on them:they follow a religion that says the reason a woman’s testimony is HALF that of a man{see koran k2:282} is due to “The deficiency of a woman’s mind”.
It is in honor of this chauvinistic,misogynistic god that women wear hijabs in islam:Now THAT’S a joke!
Ilhan Omar wears her hijab in honor of a god who teaches in the koran that a woman is NOT equal to a man.Since she hates the West so much she should go live in the islamic paradise of..Somalia.I’m sure they love and respect freedom and women there.

And what exactly would be wrong with a ban on all Muslims as they all follow a legal system (sharia) that is completely incompatible with our Constitution and have only come to our country to conquer it from within? Why do we cling so desperately to the insane belief that some poison (some Muslims) is not only OK, but desirable and even laudable??

omar,oca,tlaib could not find their asses at high noon with both hands. those who voted for them were lied to by them; now they are stuck with them. they serve no good purpose other than to spread islam. islam is the main source of hatred and the main caller for censorship. Freedom of speech will stay alive and well in our country. If they can’t take the heat; they should get out of the kitchen. Their kind are snakes, liars, spreaders of hate. If a Republican person said on their first day in office, I’m going to impeach the mother fucker, all hell would have broken loose. I did not see any media shed light on this. the msm is owned b y soros along with these three muslims who are acting on soros’ plan for domination; the ‘green plan’ is his plan, not theirs.
