Unsurprisingly, you aren’t going to find any mention of this on the front pages of most news outlets, because it once again paints Ilhan Omar in a really bad light, to go with her Israel and Jew hatred. Nothing in the NY Times, NY Daily News, ABC, CBS, or NBC news, all stationed in NYC. Nothing from the Washington Post, LA Times, nor the main Minnesota newspaper, the Star Tribune.
Crenshaw calls out Omar for describing 9/11 attacks as ‘some people did something’
Minnesota Democrat Ilhan Omar is facing backlash after her speech at a Muslim rights group’s event in which she described the September 11, 2001 terror attacks as “some people did something.â€
Omar spoke at a Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) fundraiser last month, where she called upon other Muslim Americans to “make people uncomfortable†with their activism and presence in the society and criticized the Jewish state.
But another part of the speech surfaced on social media earlier this week, in which Omar described the terror attacks perpetrated by al Qaeda.
“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,†Omar said at the event.
The comments from the Minnesota freshman Democrat, still reeling from a number of anti-Semitic controversies, prompted Texas Rep. Dan Crenshaw to slam Omar for her description of the terror attacks.
“First Member of Congress to ever describe terrorists who killed thousands of Americans on 9/11 as ‘some people who did something,’†Crenshaw wrote in a tweet. “Unbelievable.â€
It’s not particularly surprising, as many, many Muslims here in the U.S. took the side of the the Muslim extremists, while many others were just agnostic on the whole matter. Most are smart enough to keep these views among themselves, which, really, was probably what Omar thought would happen here, speaking in front of her buddies linked to Islamic extremist groups, as they run along the manner of the Muslim Brotherhood, which is really the top of the extremist chart.
And she doesn’t even understand CAIR’s history. It was founded in 1994, not 2011, and one of the reasons was that some were upset over the depiction of Muslims as terrorists in the movie “True Lies”. So, CAIR immediately started palling around with Hamas.
“Ilhan Omar isn’t just anti-Semitic – she’s anti-American. Nearly 3,000 Americans lost their lives to Islamic terrorists on 9/11, yet Omar diminishes it as: ‘Some people did something.’ Democrat leaders need to condemn her brazen display of disrespect,” said GOP chairwoman Ronna McDaniel.
Democrats want this to go away, so, their buddies in the news media have complied.
“Omar articulates a view that is rarely heard from a sitting member of Congress, one that has been forged from her first-hand experiences of war and exile.”
I am proud of who I am and I will continue to fight for human rights for all. ?????https://t.co/vBfVnys6xo

She’s proud she’s an Israel and Jew hater, and a 9/11 dismisser.
