Gd bless this brave soul for speaking out against the terror in Congress.
’Some people did something,’ said a freshman congresswoman from Minnesota. Today I am here to respond to you exactly who did what to whom. Madam, objectively speaking, we know who and what was done. There is no uncertainty about that. Why your confusion? On that day, 19 Islamic terrorist members of al Qaeda killed over 3,000 people and caused billions of dollars of economic damage. Is that clear? But as to whom…I was attacked, your relatives and friends were attacked, our constitutional freedoms were attacked and our nation’s founding on Judeo-Christian principles were attacked. That’s what some people did. Got that now?”

Ilhan Omar slammed on 9/11 anniversary by victim’s son after ‘some people did something’ quote
By Greg Norman | Fox News
Son of 9/11 victim blasts Rep. Ilhan Omar during memorial ceremony
A man wearing a ‘Some People Did Something’ shirt addresses the Democrat ‘Squad’ member’s ‘confusion’ about the 9/11 attacks.
Nicholas Haros Jr. wants Rep. Ilhan Omar and “the Squad” to know exactly who those “some people” are that perpetrated the “something” that took the life of his mom – and nearly 3,000 other people – 18 years ago.
The New Jersey resident, who lost his mother Frances in the 9/11 terror attacks, ripped the Minnesota congresswoman on Wednesday during a reading of victims’ names at Ground Zero after Omar’s infamous remarks earlier in the year in which she described the most horrific attack to ever occur on the American homeland simply as “some people did something.”
“Today I am here to respond to you exactly who did what to whom,” said Haros Jr., who sported a shirt with Omar’s words and was met with some applause from a crowd of families and relatives who had gathered for the ceremony. “Madam, objectively speaking, we know who and what was done. There is no uncertainty about that. Why your confusion?”
He continued: “On that day 19 Islamic terrorists, members of Al Qaeda, killed over 3,000 people and caused billions of dollars of economic damage. Is that clear?”
Law enforcement and loved ones offer tears and tributes to the World Trade Center victims; Eric Shawn reports from Lower Manhattan.
As Haros Jr. spoke, he was standing just steps away from the site of the former World Trade Center’s south tower — where his 76-year-old mother, Frances, walked into work one pleasant Tuesday morning and never returned home.
“But as to whom? I was attacked. Your relatives and friends were attacked,” Haros Jr. said, looking out to the crowd. “Our constitutional freedoms were attacked and our nation’s founding on Judeo-Christian principles was attacked.”
He added: “That’s what some people did,” Haros Jr. concluded. “Got that now? We are here today congresswoman to tell you and the Squad just who did what to whom. Show respect in honoring them, please.”

Omar tweeted about the attacks on Wednesday around the same time Haros Jr. was making his remarks, though it wasn’t immediately clear if Omar’s tweet was in response to his words.
“September 11th was an attack on all of us,” she wrote. “We will never forget the thousands of Americans who lost their lives in the largest terror attack on U.S. soil. I will continue to fight to make sure we care for the first responders and families who lost loved ones. #NeverForget”
September 11th was an attack on all of us.
We will never forget the thousands of Americans who lost their lives in the largest terror attack on U.S. soil.
I will continue to fight to make sure we care for the first responders and families who lost loved ones. #NeverForget
— Ilhan Omar (@IlhanMN) September 11, 2019
The “some people did something” comment from Omar that drew such widespread criticism was made at a March 23 fundraiser for the controversial Council on American-Islamic Relations.
“Here’s the truth: Far too long we have lived with the discomfort of being a second-class citizen and, frankly, I’m tired of it, and every single Muslim in this country should be tired of it,” she said. “CAIR was founded after 9/11 because they recognized that some people did something and that all of us were starting to lose access to our civil liberties.”
Minnesota Democrat Ilhan Omar is facing backlash after her speech at a Muslim rights group’s event where she described the September 11, 2001 terror attacks as ‘some people did something.’
Reps. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, Rashida Tlaib and Ayanna Pressley – the other three members of the Democrat quartet dubbed “The Squad” – sprang to Omar’s defense, with Tlaib telling MSNBC that Omar’s words were taken out of context.
“They do that all the time, especially women of color, they take our words out of context because they’re afraid because we speak truth, we speak truth to power,” Tlaib said.
Haros Jr., in a 2001 interview with the Staten Island Advance, described his mom as a tireless receptionist at Keefe Bruyette & Woods, a financial firm that had office space on the 88th and 89th floors of the World Trade Center’s south tower.
“The traders used to treat her like an office mother,” he told the newspaper at the time, noting she chose to continue working that year instead of retiring. “Until she couldn’t physically walk or crawl, she was going to work.”
Nicholas Haros Jr. speaks out after his public plea during the World Trade Center memorial service.
Wednesday’s comments also were not the first time Haros Jr. has called out politicians at Ground Zero on the anniversary of the attacks.
“A representative of the House referred to our loss as just another incident’” he said last year, referring to remarks from House Speaker Nancy Pelosi.

“And last week, a Senator attacked a Supreme Court nominee and called him a racist for alleged comments after 9/11” he also had said, referring to Sen. Cory Booker, D-N.J.
“Stop. Stop, please stop using the bones and ashes of our loved ones as props in your political theater,” Haros Jr. declared. “Their lives, sacrifices and death are worth so much more.”

Omar wasn’t just offensive for what she said, it was how she said it, with that little smirky dismissive laugh with which she expresses her contempt for the US. Which is completely different in tone from her tweet today and why I doubt she wrote the respectful words. I don’t think she has it in her, but maybe she’s changed? She’s become the face of patriotic America? We’ll be watching.

Whatever is thrown at Omar will bounce harmlessly off her contemptible hide as a Red Rubber Ball. This character came to America as a reprobate, and daily demonstrates without failure that nothing has changed. She has the media worshiping her, and the Demoncratic Party goading her on.
The true nature of man is never considered in these transactions – by ANYONE.

Agree. If Trump is smart enough , he should pass E.O to ban all terror/crime/illegal/drug linked persons from coming to America and those who advocate for them should lose their assets/citizenship and deported/jailed as terror agents.
Unless this is done there will be never ending cases . And America will become like canada/EU
Like this Left/Liberal Loons Run Country has been turned into ISIS/jihadi base https://tinyurl.com/y74v5327

That this Omar pig is allowed to serve even one more hour in Congress, is reprehensible and shameful. It should be a requirement that anyone running for Congress, must show they love this country. That would certainly eliminate Omar pig and Co. She does not deserve to serve in Congress, let alone be a citizen of this country. You can feel her hatred for this country with every foul word that comes out of her serpentine mouth.

The f’ing muslums have already slaughtered 70,000 Nigerian Christians since 9-11 and G-d knows how many Iraqi and Syrian Yezidi and Christians. The 3000 people killed on 9-11 are but a drop in the bucket.

What is being taken “out of context” is the failure of our
media and leaders to recognize that Islam is to America as water is to fire.
The belief system intends and is working towards the overthrow of our political
world, substituting their inane belief system in its stead. The “political
correctness” that permeates our media and many of our leaders that avoid ever stating the obvious, and that
it was and is the belief system that is Islam that caused the carnage of 9-11
and continues throughout this world is
what is “out of context.” Let us not forget that!!!

I proudly salute Mr Nicholas Haros Jr for his statement. But, the fake news media ignores this and the low information voter will never see or hear it.
That said, Mr Haros said it a lot more politely than I would have.

It’s ILLEGAL to accept foreign money for a campaign….
New Evidence Reveals: Ilhan Omar is Erdogan’s Agent in Washington
By JNS September 10, 2019 , 12:08 pm
U.S. Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.) meets with Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan during the 2017 U.N. General Assembly. (MEMRI)
…
Tarek Cherkaoui, the manager of the Turkish state-run news channel TRT World’s research center, wrote an article in April calling upon Turks to donate to the campaign fund of U.S. Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.). The article was widely reprinted in the Turkish media.
The article, written for the English-language website of the Turkish pro-government daily Yeni Şafak and published on April 1, 2019, was titled “Media Flak Directed At Ilhan Omar No Surprise At All.” At least seven other Turkish media outlets ran the article, in both English and in Turkish. It should be noted that U.S. federal law prohibits foreign nationals from donating to political candidates.
In the article, Cherkaoui wrote that “donating money to Omar’s campaign fund would be an adequate way of denying powerful organizations the power to censor alternative voices.”
…
Omar has become a favorite of both the Turkish- and English-language media in Turkey.
TRT World’s YouTube channel, the English-language channel of the Turkish state-owned broadcasting network TRT, has at least a dozen videos featuring her, including an interview. Hundreds of news articles in Turkish about her have been published, some under headlines such as “Ilhan Omar Laid Out The U.S.’s Lies In The Middle East One By One!” and, in a play on a Turkish expression, “The One Who Tells The Truth Will Be Chased Out Of Nine Parliaments.”

Does she think we are STUPID?
Ilhan Omar releases somber video describing the ‘complete horror’ she felt during 9/11 – just hours after a victim’s son wore a t-shirt at Ground Zero criticizing her for saying ‘some people did something’ when discussing the attacks in April
* Ilhan Omar described her experience of 9/11 as a ‘complete horror’ in a video
* Nicolas Haros Jr. criticized her for ‘some people did something’ comment
* He was at the 18th Anniversary ceremony in New York and is the son of a victim
* Nearly 3,000 died in the terror attacks, thousands more were injured in 2001

Always remember: It is the LEFT who are the primary enemy and are the real disease. Muslims are just a symptom of the disease as only thanks to the LEFT have they been able to enter, proliferate and kill. The LEFT are not just Democrat politicians ANTIFA scum and the obvious supporters. They include the millions of public service workers with their communist unions and incredible benefits that make working any where else a shame by comparison. These leftist are the ones who block or slow conservatives and do the same to any conservative president or PM. They whistle blow at any required action to defend the country because it might hurt someone’s feelings. never forget who are the primary enemy!

“It is the LEFT who are the primary enemy and the real disease”. I disagree it is the LEFT who are lapdogs of the muslums not vice-versa. Leftist values aren’t being promoted in islamic states and won’t be because the muslums won’t allow these degenerate atheists to promulgate their immorality in their states. The leftists are on the take to islamic petrodollars not vice-versa. It’s the f’ing leftists who are promulgating islamic values!

Your point is overwhelmed by the fact that without the Left there would be no problems with muslim in the west. Muslims have been the enemy for 1400 years and we here all know that. Had it not been for the Left they would never have gained a foothold in the west. I do not dispute that muslims are the enemy but we will NEVER beat them with the left stabbing us in the back and they must be the first group silenced. Just think about it. Imagine the west waging war vs islam and what the lefties would be doing? Not helping the war effort I assure you.

Factual (see Robert Putnam) article reaps shitstorm, ostracism, condemnation and censorship: “Hecht’s article hinges on a report from the Gatestone Institute, a think tank that has published disinformation and anti-Muslim content according to the Council on American-Islamic Relations. The Gatestone Institute is widely recognized as part of what’s known as the Islamophobia industry, that just generally peddles in either fabricated or very heavily skewed stories, all kind of with the conclusion that it’s impossible to integrate Muslims.” https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/calgary/mark-hecht-vancouver-sun-op-ed-1.5274962
The Vancouver Sun has published a rebuttal
piece to Hecht’s work in Monday’s newspaper.

The Democratic Party and their leaders, a.k.a. “The Squad”, are not on “the wrong side of history” as they love to expound but on the wrong side of the voting public, as in their bad side. I don’t know about you but they piss me off.
BTW, where do the commiecrats come up with this “wrong side of histort” crap? Are they able to predict the content, tone, and tenor of history books that have yet to be written?

Ohmy’s words were not taken out of context. They stand alone showing America how much she HATES America. She even announced the defense of a TERRORIST organization in the Sand-lot that birthed her. STRIP her of her American gratis citizenship. IMPEACH her from the current CON-gress. Deport her and ALL of her “family” and relative members. Why? America does not want to SEPARATE families!

Every last man and woman who continues to adhere to the demonic cult known as Islam shares equal responsibility for the slaughter of 9/11 and the slaughter that continues to this very day and has existed unabated for over 1400 years. If not involved directly in terrorism or jihad they are aiders and abetters by supporting people and institutions and a cursed doctrine that promotes jihad as a core belief. It is time to annihilate this cult, wipe it from the face of the earth! Only then will the deaths of 9/11 and the countless others that preceded and continue to this very day be properly honored.
