Just After a Man was Killed for Burning the Qur’an, Ilhan Omar Wants to Shelter Islam from Criticism

You gotta wonder about the timing. Could America’s winsome Somalia-First member of the House of Representatives, Ilhan Omar (D-Mogadishu) be any more tone-deaf? On Thursday, Salwan Momika, a courageous freedom fighter in Sweden was murdered for daring to burn the Qur’an. And on Friday, Omar reintroduced her International Islamophobia Act, which would mandate the establishment of a Special Envoy for Monitoring and Combating Islamophobia in the State Department.
 

That’s right. It was only a matter of hours after Momika been killed for insulting Islam that Omar sagely surveyed our contentious land and decided that our real problem is that we all don’t love Islam enough. And so now she has revived her long-dormant prescription for the correction and improvement of the land that gave her refuge, and that she loves almost as much as she loves Somalia.

“Islamophobia is not just a problem overseas—it is on the rise here at home,” Omar claimed. “We cannot turn a blind eye while Muslim communities face targeted violence and systemic discrimination worldwide.” Well, yeah. Targeted violence and systemic discrimination are bad indeed, but are they really happening in America today?

The FBI Crime Data Explorer says that there were 265 hate crimes in the past year that were classified as “Anti-Jewish.” This just edged out hate crimes that were “Anti-Black or African American” for the top spot on the hate crimes list; there were 220 of those.

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address

You know that old saying "the truth shall set you free?"  I guess she's never heard it or if she has, doesn't believe it. :whistle:

It's not the State Department's job to police hate in the world.

If Islamofascists are concerned about their public image, maybe they should stop murdering non-Muslims.

If they can't tolerate living with a secular form of Government, they can get the hell out.

You have it wrong.  Their belief is if they don't like something, YOU have to leave.
