Ilhan Omar Discovers the Real Victim of 9/11: Ilhan Omar

9/11 achieved its goals – and then some. Imagine, a Jihad caucus in Congress and this “star” of the Democrat party.

Ilhan Omar Discovers the Real Victim of 9/11: Ilhan Omar

Of course. Who else could it possibly be?

Robert Spencer

Story continues below advertisement

The controversy began on the eighteenth anniversary of 9/11. Responding to Omar’s notorious statement that on 9/11, “some people did something” (which phrase was emblazoned on his t-shirt), Nicholas Haros Jr., the son of a woman who was killed in the World Trade Center bombing, declared: “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? 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?”

Omar responded to Haros by playing the victim card: “9/11 was an attack on all Americans.” (She didn’t address whether or not it was an attack on Somalis.) “It was an attack on all of us. And I certainly could not understand the weight of the pain that the victims of the families of 9/11 must feel. But I think it is really important for us to make sure that we are not forgetting, right, the aftermath of what happened after 9/11. Many Americans found themselves now having their civil rights stripped from them. And so what I was speaking to was the fact that as a Muslim, not only was I suffering as an American who was attacked on that day, but the next day I woke up as my fellow Americans were now treating me as suspect.”

Ilhan Omar’s message here is familiar, as many, many other Muslims have said it. After every jihad massacre and every jihad plot, we hear it again: the true victims of the attack are Muslims.

But Omar’s claim that after 9/11, Muslims in the United States had “their civil rights stripped from them,” and that now she herself was being treated “as a suspect,” is entirely baseless. Contrary to the prevailing myth, there was no wholesale targeting of innocent Muslims after 9/11. FBI hate crime statistics year after year show Jews, not Muslims, as the primary victims of hate crimes. Muslims have not been stripped of any civil rights.

In fact, the whole claim of Muslim victimhood after 9/11 is a scam. Jonathan S. Tobin reported for the Gatestone Institute in December 2017 that “the statistics published by the FBI over the last 17 years refute both the Islamophobia narrative and the claim of a widespread backlash against Muslims in the aftermath of terrorist attacks by Islamists.” The reality is that “the myth of a post-9/11 ‘backlash’ against Muslims is politically motivated and spread by groups such as the Council of American Islamic Relations (CAIR), which presents itself as a civil rights group, but was founded to serve as a front organization for the terrorist group Hamas. The effort to persuade the public that America is Islamophobic stemmed largely from the aim to shift the narrative about terrorism to that of an Islamist war on the West to one according to which Muslims are terrorized by and in the United States.”

The facts, however, never get in the way of the Left’s narrative, and in this case, no one in the establishment media dared to contradict Ilhan Omar’s fanciful claims, if they were even aware that they were false. One day this mendacious and extraordinarily corrupt official will fade from the scene, but as Shakespeare noted, “the evil that men do lives after them.” (Yes, that adage applies to migrant women of color as well as to the evil white supremacist males of establishment media myth). Many Leftist public figures before Ilhan Omar have used the kinds of charges that she makes here to stymie counterterror efforts and stigmatize counterterror analysts, and they’ve had great success with that. It is almost certain that that success will continue far longer than the public career of Ilhan Omar.

Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN), suggests people should be ‘more fearful of white men’ than jihadists in 2018 interview
…… Americans should be “more fearful of white men” when discussing the threat of “jihadist terrorism.”

I wrote the following in connection with a recent article in
Gellar’s report concerning Islamic’s who sought an apology from an airline
because their conduct prompted the crew of a commercial airline to remove them
from the plane. It needs to be repeated here, as this article which reports
about the Islamic claim that they are the victims needs to be addressed, and
our elected officials and the media are ignoring the reality that generates all
of our concerns about these believers, as follows:

‘The bottom line to this entire article, in which these men seek an apology, is that they represent a
belief system that promotes invasions of non-Muslim nations with the
expectation that Islam will then, ultimately, dominate that nation in all
respects. Knowing that, they are not deserving of an apology, and the real
conclusion that us non-Muslims must come to is that these people have created
and continue to foster fear based on their history and conduct over the last
1400 years, and we owe them no apology for our continuing concerns. We simply
cannot trust these believers, especially since those radicals among them do not
relish life, but rather believe that death is the priority, and killing
innocents is of no concern to them. I recognize that not all believers of Islam
accept their violent teachings, but it also appears that those who do not are
doing nothing to overtly reject those teachings, probably because they would be
accused of being apostates, subjecting themselves to death by the lunes among
them. Since there seems no way to correct their violent belief system, we have
every right to fear them, as that is a making of their own, and I am sick and
tired of all those out there who refuse to actively deal with the painful
reality that these believers bring to free nations.’

Islamophobia is RATIONAL; the claim of alleged suffering from the Islamic’s is without merit or
substance, and this country needs to castigate these believers who promote
violence like Farrakhan, Omar and the like, until either they reject their
poisonous belief system or remain silent in the face of our consternation.

Pam and Robert’s site should be essential reading for all westerners. I still can’t believe to this day 18 yrs after 9/11 those of us in the anti-Islam movement are still a small group that is easily marginalized and demonized by the mainstream.

Nothing will impact our lives more than Islam once the Muslims become a large population. It’s bad enough to deal with one muslim idiot who idolizes Mohammad, it’s another when there are millions of these same low-IQ lunatics working towards a common goal, which is to destroy Democracy, Freedom and establish Islamic rule.

Share Pam/Robert’s site wherever you can, we should make them a household name. There are other fantastic people working on our side as well but these two sites should be the starting point.

All we need to do is get about one million patriots who want to defeat Islam. Then we have mass movements/demonstrations against Islam/Muslims which will force our politicians to take notice and do something.

The secret to defeating Islam is very simple, it is education. This is why Muslims and their Leftist poodles do everything they can to silence/censor critics of Islam. Because they know once people hear the truth about Mohammad, Sharia and Islam’s history, people will turn against Islam like we all have. Once that happens, it’ll be a trivial matter to throw the Omars and Tliabs out of our country.

Ever initiated a working from home business simply to discontinue weeks later on? Why do you find it so challenging to make money from home if so many other folks have carried out it? It’s because you didn’t begin with the RIGHT work from home business for yourself! I know a terrific opportunity for you.

Sorry I wasn’t with it obviously as a close friend had tried to commit suicide so I guess my usual logic and concentration was a little off. You probably need to be a little less rude because you never know what is going on in people’s lives.

There is an old saying, “The more you stir sh*t with a stick, the more it stinks.” Omar’ imagined victimhood wouldn’t even exist should she and her ilk learn to STFU.

To refine the argument it is worth noting that sixteen of the nineteen 9/11 hijackers were Saudi.

It is ALWAYS about them! It’s NEVER about the real victims. No matter how much we try to analyse these selfish, thoughtless, un-empathetic parasites we never will because they are not programmed like us to feel or think for others.
They are raised like pigs to wallow in their own self pity and inflict their hatred onto others. They are fed lies and swallow the doctrine that commands they hate the enemies of generations before them and ones yet to come after them. They are born into an ideology of fear, violence and death. Their heroes are those who slaughter in the name of their deranged prophet and they are infuriated by those who represent faith, forgiveness, empathy, kindness, love and freedom. God…our God is their enemy because he represents everything theirs is not. They hate us because we represent everything they cannot be.
We are blessed and they are cursed. Ilhan Omar is an abomination of everything our nations have been built on….christian values, traditions, history, laws, freedoms, patriotism and consequences for our unacceptable behaviour. She is a mockery to what we respect and value. She represents segregation, hatred, disloyalty and distrust under the same flag that thousands of brave women and men sacrificed everything for the foundations we stand on today. She does not love America or respect its democracy and laws. Her loyalty is with her Muslim faith and family. She will NEVER be American. She needs to be an example by the President of those who are NOT wanted or welcomed in Congress. Let’s get her out anyway possible because she is a menace and threat to that beautiful nation. ????????

Moslems are progeny of Ismail .. & christians are progeny of Isaac

But they ALL are .. modern-day children of their prehistoric ancestor ABRAHAM

In fact .. the cult of christianity is IDENTICAL with the creed of islam

The only subtle difference is .. that the multiple decrees to loot, rape & slaughter all non-believers .. are rather EXPLICITLY profiled within the Holly Qur’an .. whereas, they are couched in SUGGESTIVE syntax within the Holly Bibbal

Muslims of the 21st century are EXACTLY .. what the christians of the Dark Ages were

Therefore .. it is incumbent upon the christians to SURRENDER to the moslems .. so that the latter will SATIATE their blood-thirst within a few years of lot-rape & butchery

Of course .. many christians will get brutally sacrificed in the process

However .. knowing the christian ZEAL to bring wayward soul onto the righteous path shown by Jheejhus .. one imagines, that christians will boldly step forward to do the needful

Bernie Sanders has the GREATEST sympathy with muslims .. & his solidarity with muslims is barely surpassed by the somalian ilhan Omar’s zeal for her ummah

Congress-person ilhan Omar considers herself, Allah’s gift to ALL mankind in general .. & to the american white christians, in particular

The NET result is .. that the democrats will now lobby for more & more muslims to be allowed REFUGE, within the USA

Muslims from Arabia & North Africa have come in such overwhelming numbers to Europe, Canada & the USA .. that their OWN countries are suffering a shortage of manpower

Hence .. the Moslem Brotherhood has now decided, that the next waves of immigration shall begin from South Asia

Sunni muslims REFUGEES from the muslim countries of Pakistan & BanglaDesh will seek ASYLUM in the US

Sunni muslim immigrants from Myanmar (Burma) & India will also seek residence within the USA

The total number of all such sunni muslims who arrive from SOUTH ASIA .. & settle down in the USA .. will be approx. 25 million

These 25 million sunni muslims will come over the next 10 years .. & most of them will be young MALES

They will be HUGELY assisted in their efforts to relocate to the USA .. by their “quasi muslim” SIKH friends

[ Please remember that ..
1) the prophet of the Sikh people viz. Miyaan Nanok was born in PAKISTAN, within the sunni muslim casbaah of Nanokabaad .. which was later renamed as Nankona Shihaab

2) Miyaan Nanok was a devout muslim .. & he made the famous HAJJ pilgrimage to Mecca .. in the company of his young sunni muslim lover, Boy Mordenna

3) Miyaan Nanok was a worshipper of the FORMLESS GOD, whom he called Ra’b .. or Mollah or Allah ]

This “quasi muslim” SIKH community within the USA .. is the single most influential non-christian community .. after the Jews

The muslim SIKHs have penetrated ALL spheres of the american establishment .. including the JUDICIARY, the academia, the media, the Congress, the bureaucracy .. & even the Pentagon

SOME PROMINENT SIKH POLITICIANS, BUREAUCRATS & JUDICIAL OFFICERS ARE ..
Nikki Haley , Ro Khanna , Kamal Harris , Boby jindal , Harmeet Dhillon , Harpreet Sandhu , Gurbir Grewal , Manka Dhingra , Monika Kalra Varma , Ash Kalra

MOST of these sikh muslims .. are TOTALLY in favor of mass immigration of South Asian muslims into the USA .. bcoz it will improve the vote-share of the DEMOCRATS

Fun times ahead .. yes ??
