'False And Unacceptable': Psaki Responds To Latest Omar Scandal, Says Omar Didn't Mean It

Press Secretary Jen Psaki weighed in on Democratic Minnesota Rep. Ilhan Omar’s refusal to apologize for her comments conflating the U.S. and Israel with terrorist organizations.

“Any attempt to draw an equivalency between the United States and our close ally, Israel, with a terror groups like Hamas or the Taliban, is false and unacceptable,” Psaki said during her Wednesday press conference. Psaki also claimed that doing so was “not the intent of [Omar’s] comments.”

Omar told CNN’s Jake Tapper on Tuesday that she did not regret comments in which she claimed that the U.S., Israel, Hamas, and the Taliban were all responsible for “unthinkable atrocities.”

“I think it’s really important to think back to the point that I was trying to make,” Omar told Tapper. “Obviously, I was addressing Secretary of State Blinken. The cases are put together in front of the ICC. ICC has been investigating. I know that some of my colleagues don’t let legitimacy to the ICC but I tend to think that people around the world who have experienced injustice need to be able to have a place where they can go.”

Omar then accused Jewish Democrats who condemned the earlier remarks of not “equally engaging in seeking justice around the world,” and not “know[ing] what it feels like to experience injustice.”

No, that pretty much was the intent.

Obviously Omar is either a stooge or incredibly ignorant of the holocaust, neither makes her look good.  An easy example to see of how one sided, willfully blind Democrats beloved muslim in our government bring a exceedingly narrow view to world situations.  Like democrats, only one side is privileged and can do no wrong to issues.

And yet Jews continue to support the far left in American politics. I am not sure it's roots are just a general hatred of Christians (Israel's biggest defenders).

Unfortunately I think you're right; Omar's not going away anytime soon.  She has broken the law several times, and she's never been held accountable.  So, she's been given the green light to do whatever she wants. The "Squad" and others like her will dominate Congress (of what's left of it to come).
