Are the Democrats starting to feel any remorse for their boosting of this vicious Jew-hater? They might have thought it would all be over and done with when Omar issued her fake and insincere “apology” for her earlier anti-Semitic remarks. But Islamic Jew-hatred is in the Quran; she isn’t going to give it up. Expect more and more anti-Semitic remarks from her, and expect her Democrat critics to go silent. They have cast their lot with her.
“Omar feuds with fellow Democrat over support of Israel,” by Chris Mills Rodrigo, The Hill, March 3, 2019:
Democratic Reps. Ilhan Omar (Minn.) and Nita Lowey (N.Y.) feuded Sunday over support of Israel and alleged anti-Semitic comments.
Story continues below advertisementLowey tweeted Saturday that Omar has a tendency to “mischaracterize” support for Israel from American lawmakers.
“Lawmakers must be able to debate w/o prejudice or bigotry,” she wrote. “I am saddened that Rep. Omar continues to mischaracterize support for Israel. I urge her to retract this statement and engage in further dialogue with the Jewish community on why these comments are so hurtful.”
Omar responded to Lowey saying that she is simply trying to question the foundation of American relations with Israel.
“Our democracy is built on debate, Congresswoman! I should not be expected to have allegiance/pledge support to a foreign country in order to serve my country in Congress or serve on committee. The people of the 5th elected me to serve their interest. I am sure we agree on that!” the first-year Rep. tweeted.
“I have not mischaracterized our relationship with Israel, I have questioned it and that has been clear from my end.”
Omar continued to argue that she finds it problematic that she is called anti-American if she is not pro-Israel.
“Being opposed to Netanyahu and the occupation is not the same as being anti-Semitic,” she added. “I am grateful to the many Jewish allies who have spoken out and said the same.”
Lowey responded on Sunday, saying that no lawmaker is forced to swear allegiance to another country, but that accusations of “dual loyalty” are dangerous.
“No member of Congress is asked to swear allegiance to another country,” she tweeted. “Throughout history, Jews have been accused of dual loyalty, leading to discrimination and violence, which is why these accusations are so hurtful.”
Lowey initially tweeted in response comments Omar made this week about the impact of special interest groups on foreign policy, specifically related to Israel.
“I want to talk about the political influence in this country that says it is O.K. for people to push for allegiance to a foreign country,” she said during an event at a Washington bookstore, according to The New York Times.
She went on to question why it was acceptable for her to criticize the influence of the NRA, fossil fuel industries and other special interest groups but not the American Israel Public Affairs Committee….

……….. Because swearing allegiance to any hateful organization, or country is never justified ?!!!
Omar should be asked point blank whether her loyalties lie primarily with the Koran or with the Constitution of the USA. These documents are incompatible.
Agree. Her loyalty is to goat humpers gang.
Even Liberal loon Clooney the Loony had to admit Trump was Correct and he was wrong http://offtrade.net/cnmnews/cloony-admits-trump-was-right/
LOL !
As long as they don’t have to pay the price for their loonism, they will shill for it !

Omar is a typical (left wing) politician. Keep lying while going into the elections and show your real face once you are being elected.
And receive re-election by the same bunch of undiscerning losers who vote for the likes of her time and time again. And Pelosi. And DeGette. And Klobuchar. And Schumer. And (you name the leftie).
Along with the other two stooges. ocasio and rashida
“Are the Democrats starting to feel any remorse for their boosting of this vicious Jew-hater?” Was the original question, and the answer is maybe, but not enough, and not quickly enough.
Democrats are usually lock step, but their getting shaky with this Jew hater. Don’t forget rashida
Most of the d’s are in lock step…..they have done nothing but slap her wrist.
Along with the other two stooges. ocasio and rashida
Get out of MY Government and country you bitch
When you garner the title, you can.
Omar is an anti-semite and oozes hate toward Israel and no one stops her..I am a Canadian and we have similar problems of that here..We are a Christian country and so is America but the violent species of islam has invaded our countries …May I remind all those islamics, they are the ones who are the hate spreaders..Israel is the rightful occupier of all of Israel..the palestinians are former Jordanians who were kicked out of Jordan..Isaac is the rightful heir to Abraham and not Ishmael..get it through your thick heads..islam is a cult..not a religion..
I totally agree with you.Jordan is Palestine and the Palestinians are Jordanians. I was in Jordan’s and all the Palestinians I met there had Jordanian passport. Jordan is for sure Palestine.
I thought head-coverings (hijabs) are not allowed in the US-congress and also not allowed in the committees?
No they changed the rules to allow these foreigners comfort.
Repealed this year after 182 years.
SHE insisted it MUST be changed for her. Isn’t that what all minority cults do? mudslime is NOT a religion.
Yes they ask a lot of extras for themselves.No other religion does that!
Tell Omar, she needs to stop her support for Mecca and Hamas first, then we might rethink our support for Israel, We received our Christian teachings from Christ a born Jew of Israel and therefore, support Israel.
The Lord God Jehovah has a word for Ms Omar
Proverbs 6:16-20 New International Version (NIV)
16 There are six things the Lord hates,
seven that are detestable to him:
17 haughty eyes,
a lying tongue,
hands that shed innocent blood,
18 a heart that devises wicked schemes,
feet that are quick to rush into evil,
19 a false witness who pours out lies
and a person who stirs up conflict in the community.
Amen and Amen!
The Nazis hated Jews too, and look what happened because of that. Islam wishes to destroy anyone who does not submit to Islamic law. Omar is a traitor to this country and should be deported back to whatever Islamic chithole she and her family came from.
Muslims are bound by Islam to follow Sharia law. Islam and Sharia law
are not compatible with our Constitution, our freedoms and our way of
life. We cannot assimilate people who are hostile to our government,
our laws, our way of life, demanding and intent on conquering. Islam
should be banned in this country for that very reason.
GI agree and also no one should be sworn in on the coran. Only the Bible or the constitution should be allowed.
It is fairly certain that Omar is just trying to fool the voters. Her bigotry is clear from her anti-semitic remarks. Her criticism of the NRA and fossil fuel industries do not include statements that are inherently hateful, not based on a pure difference of opinion, and blatantly untrue. Making hateful remarks against other groups like Jews is implicitly a form bigotry, indicating racism and likely xenophobia in the near future. Anti-Christian remarks and yes anti-American remarks against our law are likely not far off in the future. This should be her first and last time in American government. If voters in her district pay attention all will become clear about her real motives, and she will not be voted back in for a second term.
This is a woman who is here only to try and undermine all of the government. She actually hates America, but must do her mullas bidding.
The “occupation”??
If you read the Bible the Palestinian “occupation” is over and the land has been returned to its rightful owners after thousands of years.
You should be cheering instead of jeering.
A shame that some one like her could ever be elected to our congress
