Ocasio-Cortez Questions Backlash Against Omar, Asks Where Resolutions Are Against Xenophobia and Misogyny

https://townhall.com/tipsheet/...nd-misogyny-n2542615

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) questioned the criticism her fellow freshman Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN) is facing Tuesday. House Democrats will take up a resolution Wednesday to condemn “the myth of dual loyalty” to the U.S. and Israel that Omar has repeatedly referenced in remarks which many interpret as anti-Semitic.

Ocasio-Cortez began by calling such a reprimand “hurtful” and argued that “no one seeks this level of reprimand when members make statements about Latinx + other communities (during the shutdown, a GOP member yelled “Go back to Puerto Rico!” on the floor).”

After Rep. Tony Cardenas (D-CA) took offense at Rep. Jason Smith (R-MO) yelling “go back to Puerto Rico” on the floor in January, Smith clarified that the comment “was directed at all the Democrats who were vacationing down in Puerto Rico last weekend during the government shutdown, not towards any individual member."

The comment came after Rep. Bob Menendez (D-NJ) faced criticism for a picture on the beach at the luxury resort during the shutdown.

However, Ocasio-Cortez argued Tuesday that incidents like that one begged the question of “where are the resolutions against homophobic statements? For anti-blackness? For xenophobia?”

Just shut your fat fucking mouth, you know-nothing child.

Voters in that district were so "hypnotized" by the idea of electing "the first_______" that they bypassed several other VERY liberal candidates in favor of Omar. Now, anyone that dares to challenge her in the next primary will be called racist, Islamophobic, mysoginistic, etc

I wonder what AOC would have to say if scat-brained Puerto Ricans were being attacked by Muslim bigots...

Dual loyalties coming from a Muslim preaching anti-Semitism, and observing sharia law in the US?

Jews (being one) are used to the hate. Bring it. And to Sigfeund's comment about Democratic Jews needing to wake up to reality -100% agreed.

There was a kerfluffle here in WV when a banner, depicting the 9/11 Never Forget: Omar meme, showed up in the state capitol rotunda during "GOP Day" or some such. One of our local socialists, Mike Pushkin, wailed about how such hate and racism had no place in our state.

Seems like he should pick at the log in his party's own eye.

Video: Linda Sarsour Refuses to Acknowledge Israel’s Right to Exist

Video at link:

Women’s March co-leader Linda Sarsour on Wednesday refused to respond when asked if Israel has the right to exist after promising to answer the question following a Washington, DC, rally in support of Rep. Ilhal Omar (D-MN), who is under fire for repeated antisemitic remarks.

In exclusive footage captured by Breitbart News, videographer Matthew Perdie confronts Sarsour about if the Jewish state and the Middle East’s sole democracy has the right to exist. “We’ll answer questions later, after the press conference,” Sarsour responds, adding, “I’ll be happy to answer that.”

In a subsequent clip, Sarsour and her entourage begin walking away from the pro-Omar event, held near the U.S. Supreme Court, almost immediately after her remarks, refusing to acknowledge Perdie as he repeats his question about Israel.

An associate then physically blocks Perdie from approaching the activist.

Several men begin pushing the videographer and peppering him with questions on why he attended the pro-Omar event — and if he receives compensation from Israel. “Why are you here?” one asks him repeatedly.

“Do you work for Israel?” the man then asks, before inquiring how much the videographer is paid.

Footage of the testy encounter ends with Perdie noting that Sarsour declined to answer the question despite saying she would oblige.

Early Wednesday, the Middle Eastern Women’s Coalition held a separate event on Capitol Hill demanding for Omar’s resignation.

The Minnesota Democrat again became the center of controversy after suggesting last week that members of Congress are pressured by pro-Israel organizations who pledge their “allegiance to a foreign country” — in this case, Israel. She made the controversial remarks while appearing alongside Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-MI), another freshman congresswoman accused of making antisemitic remarks in recent weeks. Last month, the Minnesota Democrat suggested American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC) bribed Republican lawmakers into supporting Israel in exchange for bribes. It is widely known that AIPAC does not make financial contributions to political candidates or sitting lawmakers. In 2012, Omar tweeted that Israel had “hypnotized the world” and committed “evil doings.”

Sarsour made headlines this week after attacking House Speaker Nancy Pelosi for participating in drafting a resolution condemning antisemitism in response to Omar’s latest remarks, referring to her as a “typical white feminist” who does the “dirty work of powerful white men.”

Sarsour, who is no stranger to controversy, has attacked Israel and President Donald Trump on various occasions in recent years. In a November Facebook post, Sarsour seemingly accused American Jews of “masquerading as progressives” while choosing “their allegiance to Israel” instead of supporting then-Rep.-Elect Omar’s call to boycott Israel.

Sarsour claimed Omar was “being attacked for saying that she supports BDS (Boycott Divestment Sanctions) and the right for people to engage in constitutionally protected freedoms. This is not only coming from the right wing, but some folks who masquerade as progressives but always choose their allegiance to Israel over their commitment to democracy and free speech.”
Sarsour’s anti-semitic troupe was met with criticism from the American Jewish Committee to criticize.

“Accusing Jews of dual loyalty is one of the oldest and most pernicious antisemitic tropes. No surprise to see it coming from @LSarsour. How long will progressive leaders continue to look the other way in the face of this hate?” the group said in a statement shared to Twitter.

During a speech at the Islamic Society of North America (ISNA) convention in Chicago in 2017, Sarsour infamously called for a “jihad” against President Trump and called on Muslims not to assimilate in America.

Sarsour said:

I hope that we when we stand up to those who oppress our communities that Allah accepts from us that as a form of jihad. That we are struggling against tyrants and rulers not only abroad in the Middle East or in the other side of the world, but here in these United States of America where you have fascists and white supremacists and Islamophobes reigning in the White House.

“Our number one and top priority is to protect and defend our community, it is not to assimilate and please any other people and authority,” the Muslim American activist continued. “Our obligation is to our young people, is to our women, to make sure our women are protected in our community.”

“Our top priority and even higher than all those other priorities is to please Allah and only Allah,” she concluded.

Sarsour was an active surrogate for 2020 Democrat presidential candidate Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) in the 2016 presidential primary and a Democratic National Convention delegate.

Pelosi says House will vote on all ‘forms of hatred,’ but resolution won't address Omar after party uproar

Then it's a complete waste of time, and the democrat leadership has basically endorsed this hateful, anti-semetic bitch. This is especially true if Omar is not removed from the Foreign Affairs Committee. The dem leadership decides who is on these committees. If they don't remove her, then they are supporting her position, which is blatantly anti-Israel. Period.

Hopefully this will be the Demoshits' downfall when it comes voting time, but I highly doubt that will be the case. Half the people in this country just aren't that smart...anymore.

Apparently, the Dems can’t even agree on this watery, non-specific, “resolution” against anti-Semitism...made pointless by throwing in “Islamaphobia” and “anti-white supremist” (exact quote). I saw a post from a Jewish acquaintance this morning that linked an article explaining criticizing Israel is “not anti-Semitism.” This an obvious attempt to hold the Jewish, Democrat voting bloc together. Something tells me it won’t decline dramatically; Obama’s presidency proves that.

If you are unable to conceive that Omar might be anti-Semitic, you’re lying to yourself and all your Party members.

Any statement which is made by democrats concerning Omar’s statement is going to rely solely up the new democrat strategy of “By the way ism”.

Democrats can’t accept the reality of personal responsibility, every response is “But what about the statements made by Trump”, “what about all the republican statements”
