Hundreds of protesters showed up in New York City’s Times Square “to call for the removal of freshman Democratic Rep. Ilhan Omar from the House Foreign Affairs Committee.” They comprised of both Jews and Jewish supporters against antisemitism.
“New York native and activist Joe Diamond” who organized the rally stated: “In my lifetime I cannot think of any other politician who presents a bigger threat to the alliance between the US and Israel and to America’s Jews”.
Many have not called out the uniqueness about Islamic antisemitism, branding the likes of Ilhan Omar (and Rashida Tlaib) as merely “antisemitic”. What makes this kind of antisemitism distinct is the organized pervasiveness of it and the fact that the roots of Islamic antisemitism lies within Islamic doctrine, from the Quran to modern teachings by Islamic scholars.
“The former Grand Sheikh of Al-Azhar, Muhammad Sayyid Tantawi, who was the most respected cleric in the world among Sunni Muslims, called Jews ‘the enemies of Allah, descendants of apes and pigs.'”
According to Saudi sheikh, Ba’d bin Abdallah al-Ajameh al-Ghamidi: “The current behavior of the brothers of apes and pigs, their treachery, violation of agreements, and defiling of holy places … is connected with the deeds of their forefathers during the early period of Islam–which proves the great similarity between all the Jews living today and the Jews who lived at the dawn of Islam.”
And the Palestinian jihad is sealed within PA, PLO, Hamas and Fatah Charters which aim to obliterate Israel from the river (Jordan) to the sea (Mediterranean). Children in the Palestinian territories are sent to summer Jihad camp and are indoctrinated to hate Jews through school curricula; and pay-for-slay blood money continues to fund Palestinian jihad terrorists.
The New York City protest was organized by the group “Ilan Must Go.” Members planned on a billboard launching “with donations from the Simon Wiesenthal Center, the Zionist Organization of America and others”, but the city denied them a permit, calling the ad “disparaging“. But that did not stop “Ilhan Must Go“. The group launched a “video display on a truck.”
“Speakers at the event included former Democratic New York State assemblyman Dov Hikind and award-winning advocate of Christian Zionism Laurie Cardoza-Moore.” Moore said something noteworthy, that she “expects to be called Islamophobic” but she is just “against terrorism”. A Washington Examiner article published the telling title about Ilhan Omar: She’s not naive: Ilhan Omar is on the road, raising money for extreme Islamist groups.
Omar has been continuously invoking the dreaded words “islamophobia”, and “racist” when she gets called out, as a means to veil her own Islamic antisemitism.
“HUNDREDS OF JEWS GATHER IN TIMES SQUARE TO PROTEST ILHAN OMAR”, by Haley Cohen, Jerusalem Post, May 22, 2019:
EW YORK – Protesters gathered in New York City’s Times Square late Monday to call for the removal of freshman Democratic Rep. Ilhan Omar from the House Foreign Affairs Committee.
Following the highly-publicized allegations of the Minnesotan congresswoman’s antisemitism and her statement downplaying the 9/11 terrorist attacks, New York native and activist Joe Diamond organized a rally and billboard launch calling for her removal. She is one of the first two Muslim women to be elected to the US legislature.
“In my lifetime, I cannot think of any other politician who presents a bigger threat to the alliance between the US and Israel and to America’s Jews,” Diamond told The Jerusalem Post ahead of Monday’s protest. “This woman is an ardent antisemite, and she doesn’t even try to hide it.”
Omar’s critics had planned to launch a billboard with redacted quotes from the politician, alongside graphic 9/11 imagery. The group, named “Ilan Must Go,” was prepared to spend thousands of dollars on the billboard, with donations from the Simon Wiesenthal Center, the Zionist Organization of America and others. Instead, the detractors put the video display on a truck, as they were unable to receive a stationary billboard permit from local authorities, which cited the ad as “disparaging.”
A screen on the truck flickered with controversial statements Omar has made since being elected in 2018, including her much-publicized and allegedly antisemitic tweet “It’s all about the Benjamins baby.”
Diamond, who originally estimated that the event would bring in 10,000 protesters, said he was pleased with the turnout in the hundreds. Speakers at the event included former Democratic New York State assemblyman Dov Hikind and award-winning advocate of Christian Zionism Laurie Cardoza-Moore.
“We have to utilize every mechanism of media to wake up Americans about the vile hatred of this woman. Christians should also be alarmed. Ilhan Omar is a huge threat to our national security,” Cardoza-Moore said. The activist told the Post that she expects to be called Islamophobic following her statements. “I’m just against terrorism,” she claimed.
Omar’s defenders were among those in the crowd, including a handful of hassidic men who oppose the existence of Israel and a group of Jewish millennials who said that attempts to remove her were an expression of racism and Islamophobia, linked to white supremacy.
“At a Times Square protest against Ilhan Omar, several hundred people with Trump banners and Israeli and American flags are saying the most hateful lies. One man has the flag of The Jewish Defense League, a terrorist group responsible for multiple murders,” author and artist Molly Crabapple tweeted….

Why are Hasidic Jews and Millenial Jews against Israel?
carpediadem says
There is a fringe group or so of extremely Orthodox Jews against Israel. They are a fringe group and everyone ignores them except for Jew haters, who greet them with delight. They are not typical of Hasidic Jews by a long shot.
Some of the millenial or young Jews against Israel are Lefties who get funded and are as ignorant as any young person is about Israel.
They also would have absorbed a great deal of the anti Israel rhetoric and implied responsibility of Jews to ‘fix” Israel. This does not excuse what they do and they are probably not as many as they seem, but once again the vocal idiots are the most visible of any group.

We here in Minnesota are so proud of Ms. Ilhad. She combines pomposity with stupidity in a way seldom seen, even beyond the fake history on which she bases her fantastic opinions. Best of all, she does it from within a Glad Bag. So she’s pompous and modest at the same time.
CRUSADER says
You should take her out for a meal at The Good Earth !
Terry Gain says
Does it have pork specials? I would love to treat her to a toasted western or bone-in ham with mashed potatoes and peas.
Kepha says
In Taiwan there was a wonderful New Years’ dish made of a huge skin-on, bone-in pork shoulder simmered in soy sauce with garlic and ginger, then served over bamboo shoots. It was tender enough for the crew to tear apart with chopsticks. I get nostalgic just thinking of it, even if I’ve occasionally had it in some places Stateside with a large Chinese immigrant presence. And the mix of sauce and grease that would get into your rice when you were eating it! I believe if Ms. Omar was served this dish, she would become a pork-eater.
As for more serious things, as a Christian, I can take the insults that Ms. Omar and her ilk throw around. I get others from some of the “secular humanists” I’ve run into, and am fairly certain they wouldn’t even grant us Dhimmi status if they had the chance. Hence, I remain thoroughly opposed to today’s Democratic Party. If the GOP ran an embezzler and a cannibal against any of the current Democrat lineup, I’d probably cast a protest vote for the Constitutional Party or Libertarian (the state I live in is so deep indigo it wouldn’t make a difference).
My guess is that apart from the Somali immigrant community, Ilhan Omar probably got a lot of votes from people of good, solid, Snussgrinder Farmer-Labor-Democrat voters who felt the need to prove how un-racist they were; as well as the Socialists and Communists who had some deep roots up in Minnesota.

Omar is the enemy within! Why was this treasonous woman allowed to use the Koran to be sworn into office? Hopefully it invalidates her!! Omar, Tlaib and Ocasio are under investigation for campaign fund fraud, address fraud, residency fraud, tax fraud, breaking House rules about email, etc etc. Hopefully the law catches up with them soon and they are removed from office! God save America from these traitors among us! The double standard for these liberal progressive women is vomit worthy!

Does “Brian hoff”–really, “DefenderofIslam”–have a problem with Ilhan Omar being so virulently antisemitic? I really doubt it…
And why does he think President Trump should be impeached? For acting to protect Americans from Jihad terror and the imposition of Shari’ah law? Likely.
He has said before that as soon as Muslims have enough numbers in the US that they will destroy the Constitution and impose brutal Shari’ah law–then no Jews would dare protest this savagery.

Westman says
Say, Hoff,
Did you remember that Bill Clinton was impeached and was re-elected or has that escaped your grasp? It was demonstrated quite clearly that impeachment means absolutely nothing except there are angry Congressmen blowing off steam. It does not remove a POTUS from office. Considering the last use, it might even become a badge of honor.
When Maxine mouths her bizarre, “peach 45”, it is nothing but playing to her voters while she lives a great carpetbagging life as a parasite on them, and never needs to “bring home the bacon”.
Impeachment is a nothingburger intended to get some voters to change sides in the next election. It probably won’t happen, anyway, since wasting more time persecuting a President is very risky when the folks at home expect their representatives to bring benefits to their personal lives – and currently, Congress looks like lazy, “do nothing”, bums.
Kepha says
Impeachment can work when there is real wrongdoing–high crimes or misdemeanor. However, the one high crime or misdemeanor of which Trump is guilty is beating Shrillary Shroooooo in an election rigged in Shrillary’s favor.
Westman says
Yes, it was an attempted bloodless coup.
No US President has ever been removed by impeachment and it won’t happen now. When black kettles make the accusation, and that’s what must happen for a majority, it won’t happen – it’s just noise for folks back home in a very divided nation.
It should be interesting to see if the investigation into the basis for the Mueller special council sends some liberals to prison and cleans house in some agencies. The roles are now reversed. I, as a young person, never thought our government would become so corrupt. Maybe it was always that way and modern commnications and technology have simply made it impossible to be hidden.
Walter Sieruk says
That Muslim politician, Ilan Omar with her strong Anti –Jewish words and behavior ,likewise her other kinds of comments that are very negative the Jews are revealing that she is ,in essence , very un-American .
As the former US President, William Howard Taft, had in a speech declared “Antisemitism is a noxious weed that should be cut out. It has no place in America”
Kepha says
Taft–As a small boy in buckled knickerbockers, but otherwise dressed as a miniature of his father, my own father actually saw Taft visiting New York City way back in the day. He recalled it as the first time he’d ever seen president in person. He remembered Taft as an enormous man with a florid, red face, dripping sweat in the summer heat, and his little brother blurting out “Why, it’s old eggy-face!”
But, good for President Taft that he recognized anti-Semitism as something noxious.

R Cole says
The US press likes to say there is a rise in antisemitism in Europe. But to mislead their viewers, they just leave out key facts, such as it’s Islamic antisemitism that’s at the root of the majority of attacks or hostility against European Jews. And the rise in antisemitism, stems from the influx of Muslim migrants from the Middle East and North Africa who bring their intolerant beliefs with them. And that the other source of antisemitism is the radical Left, in league with the Islamists – who form a part of their neo-Marxist coalition of victims.
Islamic Antisemitism is a more accurate term because it specifies the source of the antisemitism in places like Europe. The term leaves less room for confusion.
Carolyne says
I have noted with alarm and dismay the recent resurgence of anti-Semitism not just from these two idiotic women but in society in general. It’s on college campuses, in the halls of Congress and in the media. The internet is a hotbed for it. One wonders where or even if it will die. I do not believe in any religion but I feel to each his own with the exception of Islam, the most horrendous belief in the world. Civilized people should eject it from their countries while there is still time, if there is still time.

Omar is scum, but because it is obvious that she is scum she hardly poses a threat. She is in fact a godsend. She is a Muslim who can’t hide her hatred for Jews, Christians or America. I wish her the best of luck in climbing the ranks of The Party Of Treason.
PRCS says
Support free speech!
Encourage Omar/Tlaib to keep talking!
Westman says
I agree, speak on, Omar. Americans need to hear the true attitudes of Islam.
CAIR latched onto Omar thinking it would gain more status and authority and is achieving quite the opposite for itself and Islam. It’s now in bed with a trifecta of new Congresswomen who can’t stop their “gift of gaffe.

Next she will be complaining about dogs. Muslims in Vancouver are complaining about ‘filthy dogs”….Europe has had a problem with dogs being poisoned and warning people not to walk their dogs near a mosque.

This is horribly true:
“Muslims in Spain Declare Jihad on Dogs”
https://www.gatestoneinstitute.org/2480/spain-dog-poisoning
There are other such stories.
Westman says
This all comes from Muhammad’s hatred of dogs; most likely as a result of stealth raids by his gang of robbers being thwarted by barking dogs. They also got in the way, in the local community, when the “companions” went out at night to administer some “justice” on Muhammad’s critics.
gravenimage says
Interesting speculation–this sounds quite plausible.

Apparently muhammed’s actual name was Qathem ibn Kilab{“son of dogs”}
So it is kinda funny that muhammed didn’t like dogs….being the “son of dogs”…

Stop bitching about everything and buy a ticket back to where you came from and stay there, you will be happier and so will we.

Omar is having the time of her life. Elected to the House, she insults Americans at every opportunity. And does so with impunity. So why on earth would she go back to the shithole of Somalia?
FYI says
She would not have such an opportunity in Somalia:she clearly hates our freedoms and values subscribing as she does to the Arab pagan god Al Lah {“the BEST of deceivers” k3:54},the muslim god of hate{al Walaa wal baraa} and violence.
She “prays” and wears a hijab in honor of a god{which of course she is entitled to do..} whose “prophet” said the reason the koran says the testimony of a woman is HALF that of a man is due to “the deficiency of a woman’s mind”
She should be wrapped up and packaged …

Omar seems to have committed welfare, immigration, and loan fraud. The best way to get rid of her is to look into these issues with a legal team. She should probably be sitting in jail rather than Congress.

Finally the “liberal” Jews are waking up and seeing the follies of liberalism which has sanctioned pretty much everything under the sun as “tolerance” except pride in Western thought, Christianity and classic liberalism. Wake up and smell the Colombian. Switch over to conservative politics and preserve the Judeo-Christian fabric of USA before the liberals tear it apart with medieval evils like Islam. Kick that beeatch out, she doesn’t belong in Congress, much less in America.
Demsci says
Without saying it Ilhan Omar and her supporters and allies seem to think it goes without saying that she fully supports the democratic societal system.
That she is a Democratic person and within that category that she is of the subcategory of “Muslim. Democratic people”. She did stated her loyalty to the constitution at the saturday late night.
But many see her as a member of the worldwide Ummah, as big category of 1,6 billion humans. And then of the subsection “Democratic person Muslim”.
I realize how “cringeworthy” that sounds!!!.
But yes, a Muslim might well be a patriotic American but still thinking that “her ideal America” would be an “Islamic America”. So I view loyalty to the democratic societal system as more important than loyalty to country America only (because I suppose both democratic Germans AND Nazi’s were patriotic).
And it makes a huge difference which is one’s big category and which is one subcategory. Pertaining to which set of laws a person regards herself first and foremost loyal to.
Muslim Democratic people might be loyal first to American laws and interests but Democratic people Muslims almost certainly are loyal first to Islamic laws and interests.
When the laws and interests of Democracy clash with those of Islam of course.
But almost nobody in politics dares to demand clarity on this first loyalty issue.
Although she herself dares question the first loyalty of American Jews and Israel supporters.
Demsci says
In an analogy; I remember well talking about matters of faith and evolution with Jehovah’s Witnesses, they made if several times crystal clear to me that they were of the global community of JehWits first and foremost. And that everywhere on the planet where they met fellow JehWits they were received hospitally.
They said to me that they did not care much about the country they lived in or its political system. But if they did it would still be clear that their high category was JehWit and subcategory either, say, American JehWit or Democratic person JehWit. And that it was a no brained that their first loyalties lay with the laws and interests of JehWits or its religion or its God etc.
So how do Muslims see themselves? How enthousiastic are they really about our democratic political system and constitution? Do they really are they more loyal to them than to Islamic laws? As we are all expected to believe without asking?
Endgame in politics:
To me there is a clear difference between A. Democratic persons and Muslims and B. Democratic states and Islamic states. Ideally Muslims should live in Islamic states and Democratic people in Democratic states. Of course the vast majority of people are a-political. But I think being Muslim is a very political choice, even if Muslims don’t realize it and that it is choice they can be held accountable for.
and so I think that people who choose Islam should not also choose to live in democratic states. And that Muslims applying for citizenship in democratic states should be told respectfully that it is more consistent that they go to an Islamic state than to a democratic one.

I have my issues with the Jehovah’s Witnesses, but they are completely peaceful and do not represent a threat to they societies they live in.
