Rep Ilhan Omar (D-Mn) proud America-last squad member, outrageously compared the U.S. and Israel to bloodthirsty terrorists of Hamas and the Taliban. In a tweet on Monday, Omar lumps the United States and Israel in with the murderous thugs.
“We have seen unthinkable atrocities committed by the U.S., Hamas, Israel, Afghanistan, and the Taliban.”
We must have the same level of accountability and justice for all victims of crimes against humanity.

While Republican lawmakers and most Americans expressed outrage over her statement, astonishingly, 12 house democrats came out with a joint statement, condemning her despicable comments.

Ms. Omar is known for her anti-America sentiment. An immigrant who came to America’s shores from war-torn Somalia, you’d think she’d be grateful to the nation that took her in. Sadly, the bitter democrat is anything but grateful.
Representative Omar has a history of bashing the country her family fled to, as previously reported here:
It’s hard to imagine despising the place your family sought and received refuge in, but Ms. Omar does it regularly without flinching. It is equally difficult to understand Americans’ reluctance to call out and condemn her hateful rhetoric. As one commenter put it, “Denouncing Antisemitism & standing up for America shouldn’t be hard”.
Wouldn’t it be nice if more Democrat lawmakers had the guts to speak out against such absurd anti-American sentiment?
