#2 Bullshit, pure and unadulterated. The honourable Congresswoman was born in 1981, making her twenty bloody years old on the day in question. So her life paused that day, along with the rest of us across the planet, while she waited to see if we were about to have war in the streets. And as a Muslim, she was no doubt aware that many Muslims in the country illegally — mostly overstayed student and visitor visas — suddenly left the country with their families and whatever easily portable wealth they could gather on short notice.

Though given the community she came from, she is probably also aware that on certain streets there was dancing that day, and candy given to children, just as my darling mother-in-law witnessed in the Yemeni neighbourhood of Lackawanna, NY.

#3 she went to Thomas edison HS in Minneapolis, then ND State and was a fellow at the U of MN Humphrey institute for public policy

I'm sure she knows enough 'language'.

Geraldo, however, should known enough to call 9-11 an atrocity, not a tragedy

#5 People who at the drop of the hat demand America apologize for 'its' terrible moments in history have no problem turning a blind eye to Islam's. Makes it clear that they're fundamentally anti-American.

#6 Geraldo is a self-important asshole, just like her.

Ever notice how often the narrative surrounds these people, not the actual issues ?

#11 Her education notwithstanding, knowing the Muslim view on assimilation, my guess is that it's highly unlikely that Ms. Omar will ever acquire proper English language skills. It might be interesting to have a good translation of what she'd say about it in her native tongue.

#12 She established a position of rhetorical dominance by thuggishly mocking the West for falling victim to 9/11.

This assumption of a dominant position is seen as legitimate by pretty much the entire political class except for Trump who pushed back a bit.

Her overall success proves that her 'language skills' are adequate at least.

The Western political classes' reaction to this kind of provocation proves that the West has lost the 9/11 war.

Nuts!

#13 She downplayed 9/11 and up-played the 'discrimination' afterwards. Discrimination that fell upon one poor Sikh in Arizona if I remember correctly. The rest were busy looking for discrimination while the US bent over backwards to avoid offending.

#14 The local Minneapolis is blaming Trump of course.

Fox 9 Fraud News Rep. Omar (claims) says more death threats coming since President Trump tweeted video

The Dhimmitude "News" goes on to quote their favorite Muslim Brotherhood Hamas CAIR masters

The Minnesota chapter of the Council on American-Islamic Relations plans to hold a rally in solidarity with Omar outside of the trucking business.

“This past week, Trump has attacked Congresswoman Ilhan Omar by inciting violence towards her, her family and community. Our purpose is to stand in unity with Rep. Omar and voice our collective values and ideals,” organizers said.


Mecca on the Mississippi has spoken.
