WASHINGTON, D.C. —
Minnesota's newest Congresswoman, Democrat Ilhan Omar continues to draw criticism in her first few weeks in office.

Omar, who has been under fire for not backing down from anti-Israel rhetoric, and who accused the Covington Catholic H.S. teens on Twitter of "taunting 5 Black men before they surrounded Phillips and led racist chants" (she has since deleted the false accusation), and then accused President Trump of backing a "coup in Venezuela" and installing "a far right opposition" opposed to Socialist Dictator Maduro is now getting heat for a letter that she wrote to a judge in 2016 defending a Minnesota man caught trying to join the terrorist organization ISIS.

Omar wrote on behalf of Abdirahman Yasin Daud, who was one of two young men arrested in San Diego in April 2015. Daud was one of nine people arrested for trying to join ISIS. He was caught trying to purchase fake passports to travel to Syria.

She wrote to the judge: “Incarcerating 20-year-old men for 30 or 40 years is essentially a life sentence. Society will have no expectations of the to be 50 or 60-year-old released prisoners; it will view them with distrust and revulsion. Such punitive measures not only lack efficacy, they inevitably create an environment in which extremism can flourish, aligning with the presupposition of terrorist recruitment.”

Ilhan Omar is a terrorist.

Yes she is.  And those Israeli Hebrews were disgusting.  Anybody who thinks they represent anything real are 100% mentally ill.



Reports say that there are lawsuits on the way.

Questions arise over freshman Muslim rep Ilhan Omar asking judge for leniency on ISIS recruits
January 26, 2019 | Vivek Saxena | Print Article


One of the first Muslim congresswomen to ever serve in office once asked a judge to show “compassion” to defendants accused of having tried to join the Islamic State terrorist network.

“The best deterrent to fanaticism is a system of compassion,” Rep. Ilhan Omar, then a newly elected Minnesota state representative, wrote in a letter to Judge Michael Davis two days after the 2016 general election. “We must alter our attitude and approach; if we truly want to affect change, we should refocus our efforts on inclusion and rehabilitation.”

She penned the letter in regard to defendant Abdirahman Yasin Daud and eight of his peers, all Minnesota men who were set at the time to be sentenced for trying to join ISIS.
