Not only does she have no regrets, but this was not an isolated incident. “Squad member Rep. Ilhan Omar, D-Minn., retweeted a video produced by an anti-Israel organization previously investigated by the FBI for possible terrorist ties.” I
She defends accusations against about her being antisemitic with her own accusations that her critics “haven’t been equally engaging in seeking justice around the world.” And “have engaged in Islamophobic tropes.”
Omar is, in effect, a treasonous, pro-jihad operative working from one of the highest platforms in the American government. That she continues to do so without facing any consequences is one indication of the trouble America is in. Few care about the outrageous and hateful things Omar says, because America (and most of the West) is now operating under a two-tier system: one set of rules for Leftists and Muslims, and another for everyone else. And whenever wrongdoing by Muslims is called out, the truth-teller is called “Islamophobic.”
“Omar: ‘I Don’t’ Regret Grouping U.S., Israel with Terror Groups, House Dem Critics ‘Have Engaged in Islamophobic Tropes,’” by Ian Hanchett, Breitbart, June 29, 2021:
On Tuesday’s broadcast of CNN’s “The Lead,” Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN) stated she doesn’t regret her comments grouping the United States and Israel with terrorist groups and that House Democrats who have criticized some of her comments as antisemitic “haven’t been equally engaging in seeking justice around the world.” And “have engaged in Islamophobic tropes.”
Host Jake Tapper asked, “Ultimately, Democratic leaders said that equating the U.S. and Israel with Hamas and the Taliban ‘foments prejudice.’ And as you know, a group of Jewish House Democrats wrote a letter to President Biden saying that accusing Israel of acts of terror, as you and other members of the Squad have done, is antisemitic. Do you regret these comments?”
Omar responded, “I don’t. I think it’s really important to think back to the point that I was trying to make. Obviously, I was addressing Secretary of State Blinken. The cases are put together in front of the ICC. [The] ICC has been investigating. I know that some of my colleagues don’t lend legitimacy to the ICC, but I tend to think that people around the world who have experienced injustice need to be able to have a place where they can go. And as a country that helped found the ICC and supported it, I think that it is really important for us to continue to find ways in which people can find justice around the world.”
After reading some of Omar’s past comments that have been criticized as antisemitic, Tapper asked, “Do you understand why some of your fellow House Democrats, especially Jews, find that language antisemitic?”
Omar stated, “I have welcomed any time my colleagues have asked to have a conversation to learn from them, for them to learn from me. I think it’s really important for these members to realize that they haven’t been partners in justice. They haven’t been equally engaging in seeking justice around the world. And I think I will continue to do that. It is important for me as someone who knows what it feels like to experience injustice in ways that many of my colleagues don’t, to be a voice in finding accountability, asking for mechanisms for justice for those who are maligned, oppressed, and who have had injustice done to them.”
Tapper then asked, “What do you say to them — I hear everything you’re saying about your fight for justice, but what do you say to them when they say, I hear what you’re saying, but the terms you’re using, the language you’re using is antisemitic?”…..
mortimer says
Ilhan Omar’s biography is that of an almost totally amoral person. She does and says anything (even under oath) to advance her agendas.
Omar’s argument of ‘equal guilt’ is an opportunistic way of achieving a political goal (Islamic jihadic supremacism) by distorting reality.
The US military are extremely careful to do everything ‘by the book’ of the modern protocols of legitimate warfare. They are true, ethical professionals … they are not amoral ‘amateurs’ like the Islamic terrorists.
All Americans should be deeply affronted by Omar’s absurd insults.
Linde Barrera says
To mortimer- In my opinion, Ilhan Omar is a moronic dolt, but she “talks the talk” about Islam and
Muslims, so she is given a free pass every time. It is disgusting that a person such as her could have actually been elected to the office of Congresswoman. Seems her voters have the same evil mentality as she does. ?

Islamic Victimology 101.
Course description: our Muslim-only class will learn the techniques of manipulating and hoodwinking the dirty kufaar by using MELODRAMA mingled with secular HUMAN RIGHTS LANGUAGE and Leftist terms borrowed from neo-Marxism and Post-Modernism. The dirty kufaar won’t know what hit them when you have this vital tactical course under your belt. Recommended for all young Muslim propagandists and taqiyya artists. (also known as Verbal Jihad Course)
gregbeetham says
She and other Muslims attempt to achieve legitimacy by deception using a doctrine that is amoral in its makeup yet incongruously the followers fail to see the obvious fraud that has been perpetrated on themselves.
Jim says
Well, I lived for many years in her city, before she was a citizen, and I think it was a better place before she became its representative. In fact, I wish she were back in her country of origin, fighting for justice. Actually, America is the evil country that protects her in her fight for justice. She may have citizenship in the US, but she must not have had any citizenship classes before she got it. She probably had Democrat party CRT training and learned a different definition of justice than the one the founders conceived. For her, everyone is not created equal, the Islamists are more equal than her fellow citizens. She should at least be stripped of her seat on the foreign affairs committee and censured for her anti-American, anti-Semitic rants. That simiple.
Kesselman says
Ilhan Omar is incorrigibly racist due to her Mohammedan faith and ideology. The Western secular buzzwords are smoothly included in her political activism with elements of Marxism and fascism. She’s the snake nourished by globalists who think they can exploit her for their own benefit. But in the end, the Islamists are going to devour their strategic allies.
Wellington says
“But in the end, the Islamists are going to devour their strategic allies.”
Highly likely, Kesselman. I have no disagreement with you here and it stands as just one more example of the foolishness of modern Western Leftism.
But here’s my optimal scenario: The best of the West finally arouses from its slumber and destroys any chance Islam and Leftism have of eliminating liberty, common sense, reason, equality under the law, prosperity for the greatest number, basic decency and many other good things. Add to this the marginalization to the point of elimination of authoritarian thugs who run nations like China and Russia and you would have the perfect trifecta in the human arena.

Wellington says
She’s evil, she’s a liar, she is bad for America and she has an utter contempt for Western Civilization which achieved far more than any other civilization in history. She has no redeeming feature. A total parasite.
Peaclover says
Just knowing she and Talib and others are part of our Congress I still find ‘unbelievable’ yet,there they are. Shocking is better word for it really.
gravenimage says
I know how you feel, Peaclover.
mortimer says
Ilhan Omar is a VERBAL JIHADIST. Her goal is to confuse the issues and disinform Americans while insulting their intelligence and their culture of freedom.
Ilhan Omar uses the culture of freedom in order to destroy it and then replace it with discriminatory Sharia law.
Wellington says
Yes indeed, mortimer. She’s a snake and makes a boa constrictor look like a minor harmful fellow. The worst snakes are human snakes.
Peaclover says
The Christianophobia continues. No-one talks about that.
Peaclover says
I meant to say,it is Always Islamophobia people talk/complain about in the news and elsewhere.
Peaclover says
The country seems anti-Christian now,sadly.

Ilhan Omar does *not* represent the American people.
Peaclover says
yeah,I know she doesn’t,I was just thinking of how much society/the country has changed as a whole and of course,with the ‘outside influences
somehistory says
oprah winfrey claimed that ‘old White people’ have been “marinated” in racism.
Well, winfrey if she had an honest aspect, could look at this ugly, snake, mozlum creep, lying daughter of the devil, and see that she has been “marinated” in islam’s lies and evil filth.
Nothing will change this ugly snake…because she likes the way she is. Oh, so arrogant. As if she really believes that others could “learn from” her…anything useful to them for change or living better. The only thing one can “learn from” her is just how ugly, evil, arrogant, and filthy islam makes its adherents.
What true mozlum has ever said he/she was sorry for doing the evil things done for islam?
i elmi, alias i. omar, has done most of her foul deeds for personal profit….lying to get school funding, marrying her own brother to get him inside the country and school funding for him, lying to Congress on the subject of her brother-husband, paying her illicit lover-husband millions, etc. And at the same time, because these lies, fraud, etc. help her stay in a paid seat in Congress where she can do a lot of damage, even if her English is broken and flawed.
When it’s time for i. elmi, alias i. omar to meet Justice, she might regret something…being caught… much as other career criminals have regretted it.

Oprah and Ilhan are speaking in the language of veiled genocide.

That is true.

Grimly true.
James Lincoln says
The following government link outlines the committees and caucuses that Ilhan Omar involved with:

The House should strip her of all duties, otherwise they are aiding and abetting her anti-American and anti-Semitic behavior…

Thanks for that link, James.

PRCS says
Of course, she has no regrets.
She is a Muslim. A refugee from a VERY country to ours. A follower of a theocracy that teaches hatred of all other faiths–and none (special emphasis on Judaism).
And she represents a constituency consisting of VERY like-minded individuals and useful idiots who elected and reelected her and would show her the door were she to express regret.
PRCS says
VERY Muslim

a VERY Muslim country
Walter Sieruk says
That Muslim politician , Ilan Omar is so very anti-Jewish and so spitefully against the Jewish State of Israel that she is in totally in essences un-American as the late US President ,William Howard Taft and said “Anti-Semitism is a noxious weed that should be cut out it has no place in America”
Related that that grand statement in a speech former President Theodore Roosevelt, rightly, declared, “There can be no fifty-fifty Americanism in this country. There is room here for only one hundred percent Americanism, only for those who are Americans and nothing else.”
In addition, Omar is so terrible and such a danger to US Homeland Security that even an American imam had described Omar as “ISIS with lipstick.” [1]

Walter Sieruk says
About that Muslim politician ,Ilhan Omar , after her election to Congress she was thus was given a seat on the House of Foreign Affairs Committee where she has much scheming influence to promote her Un-American Islamic ideas ,politics and polices ,specifically Sharia law, upon America .
Omar with her foreign Islamic agenda she desire to impose on America which are in strong contrast to American ideas, values, politic and polices are a matter of concern. Omar with her favoring Sharia law.

Ilhan Omar has no regrets about grouping US, Israel with jihad terror groups, calls critics ‘Islamophobic’
…………………
Doubling down on evil, I see. The idea that murdering Jews is “justice” is just grotesque–but very Islamic.
Sabri S. says
We need more outspoken public leaders that don’t fear the Zionist lobby…love this brave muslima!!
gravenimage says
How is hating Israel and America “brave”? Unlike Muslims, Jews don’t target adversaries for violence–nor do American patriots.
And in Dar-al-Islam Sabri S. would be stoning a sexually loose and mouthy woman like this to death–she is just useful for him now.
E T says
She is an absolute DANGER to the USA, not only should she not be a CAIR Congress “thing”, she should be deported.
OLD GUY says
I have no regret in saying Omar should be removed from congress and deported as an enemy of state.
Horseman says
We can ignore Omar. We can’t ignore the people that elected her.
