Nobody ‘blasted’ her. Enough with these ridiculous headlines.
Look at the look on that face . Did anybody look behind here to see if her fingers we crossed. Ha ha I think so!
Bigotry must be called out and stopped, always.
I don't understand what was anti-Semitic? Didn't she just state a fact? Money from Aipac is a jewish support org which donates to congressional members?
yeah, well the truth hurts doesn't it. Stop taking Money from AIPAC/Saudi's/Russia for your campaigns. Doesn't the US contitution tell you all NOT to do that bc it will influence politicians policies. Oh bc IlhanMN called out AIPAC she's anti-semetic? GET THE FK OUT OF HERE!
The Democorporate Party TheDemocrats once again doubling down on stupid and corruption in the form of pay-offs from special interest groups all to throw under the bus one of their own. And they wonder why the eff they lost to a effing sociopath.
Her comments were truth, that's why she must apologize. Trump has conditioned this country to eat lies & love them. AdelsonTrust MiriamAdelson
Freedom of speech means that Americans are free to be critical of whomever they choose and that includes Israel!
Should we really be surprised.
I avoided posting this pic now I will post it bcse the American media is hypocrite !!he was executed by Israel couple of days ago!DO Something abt it or SHUT UP !! BDS !!your money murdered him !👆👆
Boycott Israel! BDS the least decent people can do it started the year killing innocent Palestinian kids all know that Ilhan was only saying the truth but AIPAC lobby are hunting for anti semitism bcse she is with BDS it is time to address Israel war crimes stop its protection!
She wrote a letter asking for leniency for men who committed to join ISIS, saying they were only supporting a marginalized group. She voted against a bill that would deny the families of terrorists from benefiting from insurance polices. She is a terrorist sympathizer!
Such drama!! Perhaps some of the outrage comes from the belief that what IIhan Omar is saying may actually be true (at least for SOME politicians).
Because only they are allowed to do so. gtfohwiththatnonsense
The only person who should be apologising is the potus.he has in numerous occasions twitted nonsense to the world without any apology. He has no moral right to criticise the Congress woman
There is no apology for acting like Hitler. She is a Liar and not even remotely sorry.
She didn't mean it. She'll be aking anti-Semitic comments the rest of her live--and she'll vote that way, too.
wildhorse24 SpeakerPelosi Ilhan apologies don't work in this case she needs to be booted out
Whatever happened to ‘if you don’t have anything nice to say, don’t say it’
So disappointed in her. Hope she makes amends.
Criticizing Israel isn’t criticism of Jews. US politicians need to act as if they aren’t slaves to Netanyahu and Israel, People are getting confused thinking Washington is the capital of Israel now. Even jews are not in approval of Israeli acts
As they should. Don't be hypocrites. Protect your country.
Reading all these comments from 'progressives' aka communists who see nothing wrong with that Anti Semitic Jew hater. This is what you built Obama. Behold the new Democratic Party. The party of anti Semitism.
Has the Democrat Media (including Politico) asked the Democrat POTUS candidates whether they agree with her?
Dems blasted her, I don’t think so, it is not enough.
Is there a distinction between being anti Israeli policies and anti Semitic?
Oh did they BLAST her Politico? You sure they didn’t also just DESTROY her? You are the rodeo clowns of the Apocalypse
Amazing how an instant made apology is sufficient when a Muslim Congressman offers it, but wholly insufficient when a white make does the same.
Impeachment is in Order here.
Freedom of speech!!!
I’m sure this is absolutely true.
There should be some type of classes for these new folks!
The thing is how is this stmt anti semantic! So when you say repubs are in the pocket of the gas n oil who does that insult? It wouldn't be an issue if she didn't wear a hijab! Dems need to grow a pair and stop letting a party who apologizes for nothing dictate to them!
Does anything change in Washington? I don't see anything getting better. Dems try to put them in their place and let's see if anyone breaks under the pressure to conform to the leadership . What happened to freedom of speech!
IlhanMN No need to apologize for stating the facts. Politicians, Dems & Rep alike demanding and apology for it are hypocrites.
NotAnti-Semitic AntiStupidIsraelBehavior
This is just disgusting. This woman said nothing anti-semitic, unless AIPAC is now synonymous with all Jewish people...which it isn't. She should not have apologized, and I wonder what Pelosi and her goons threatened her with...
In the 19th century Europe the rich (some Jews) , would parade around the towns on Sunday while the poor were forced to look on, records show that this display of opulence & power helped create a hostility toward the powerful in many parts of Europe
Not a good start, Ilhan. We don’t need more hate.
So there is not Israeli lobby in the US or the Israeli lobby isn't in any way linked to Jewish groups of people ? Israel isn't Jewish , Netanyahu will be surprised
I’m going to post this for every single tweet I see on this from a reporter: Drawing attention to a possible reason for Republican loyalty to Israel is not anti-Semitic. It is - at a stretch - anti-Zionist. Do your job. Focus on the facts. Spare us all the hysteria.
She's learning, just as Donny45 had to. Give her a chance!
Any form of bigotry or prejudice in our political system is wrong.
Throw her out! It is a disgrace to have this women be an elected official of a Country she clearly hates! Get Out!
Many Anti Semitic people in the DNC
Our entire Congress appears to be driven by campaign donations. Not sure why she's being bashed for that statement.
I haven't read her tweet, but being anti-zionist is not the same thing as being anti-semitic.
ARTISTstacy SpeakerPelosi stop playing into the right wing lunacy. We are a DEMOCRACY with freedom of speech. If criticism of a lobby brings this type of backlash, I want to see SHOCK AND AWE for the next Republican to open their mouth.
This evil witch must go.
Not anti Semitic... at all.
Took her long enough.
REP. Iihan needs to pull it together or hit the road.
Democrats are eating their own. Yeah. Fantastic.
Utter malarkey. AIPAC lobby's for Israel, supports US politicians who are for positive Israel behaviour. Pointing out those FACTS is hardly anti-Semitic.
All for show. She won’t apologize and nothing will happen.
dreamcatchermja This BS of labeling every disagreement with Israeli policy 'anti-Semitic' is complete nonsense.
Americans want to know why
She's wrong. Their militant support of Israel first before all others is driven by eschatological masturbatory fantasies of being the hero during Armageddon. Oh, and the money too.
We can all argue all day whether she was making legitimate criticisms of Israel. Personally I think they were. However that doesn't change her history of actual anti-Semitism or her following a religion that demands all Jews be killed. She is hiding behind legitimate criticism.
They’re forcing her to apologize for speaking a truth that most people already know. This reaction precisely proves her point of the stranglehold AIPAC has on American politicians.
Democrats are becoming more and more anti-semitic as a party
I think Rep Omar is right. Look how much attention TRUMP and his clan have given to ISRAELIs- generously giving away land that was imp to the TWO STATE solution. Every criticism of ISRAELi actions is not anti-semitic, as disgust at squandering opp for peace.
I’m not sure why criticizing AIPAC, an organization that supports an Israeli government that routinely kills Semitic children armed with rocks, is anti-Semitic.
The ones calling Anti semetic are anti world.✌️
Thank goodness a lot of people are not falling for corporate Democrats (moderate Republicans in disguise) and corporate media BS!! It is so typical Pelosi was ready to pounce to condemn critical thinking. resist
Such righteous indignation from the ANTI-PALESTINE bigot SpeakerPelosi ! IlhanMN told the truth and we are grateful for that. It's the slanderous 'antisemitism' labeling of her that requires apologies.
How come TheDemocrats didn't blast her for marrying her brother or saying a host of anti-Jewish/BDS blather prior to her election?
Speaking up against bi-partisan bias towards Israel is not anti-semitism. Silencing free speech, on the other hand, is unconstitutional.
So when will these House Dems get banned from Twitter for saying the same thing Laura Loomer did? jack
Don’t know much about Pelosi, but I was starting to admire her for her ability to hold Trump responsible. But this issue over Israel is utter bollocks.
Since when does being critical of policy and such make one a bigot? I feel like this is a smear campaign. You have an actual white supremacist (Steve King) still in the House, and yet, ya'll feel the need to attack this woman? HouseDemocrats ya'll are fu**ed up.
Pelosi is one of the largest recipients of AIPAC facilitated donations in the House. She needs to shut up.
Well that didn’t take long lol
so the tweet was about Israel and people are saying she is against Jews? Weird.
How did this despicable bigot IlhanMN get elected? Her ignorant constituents should be ashamed of themselves.
Beat the snot out of each other with the Republican right egging you on, you should just about be done in time for 2020. Put away the petty and get us out of this mess.
how different is what she saying & Trump alliegience to Saudi Arabia even though an American working reporter was killed by the Saudi Prince ...it is about the Benjamins
kinda like the pro-2nd amendment crowd when someone speaks against the NRA - how familiar is this?
oh please. would like to see more members of Congress call out the pro-Israel-pro-military-anti-Palestinian gangs! and they ARE gangs! this isn't about being anti-semite it's about brutal oppression! WhereAreTheChildren
Telling the truth is not anti-semitic.
SpeakerPelosi Per article 'Democratic leaders also added in their statement that “legitimate criticism of Israel’s policies is protected by the values of free speech and democratic debate'. But you should also acknowledge big money is a problem regardless of where it comes from
Remove her from all committees and censor her.
In other words, dont tell the truth
Hey Nancy! The GOP doesn’t actually care about this!!! It’s a manufactured crisis that continues to contribute to the false narrative that they haven’t become Christian Terrorists. The GOP doesn’t give a crap about Israel, they just support Zionism. Don’t buy into this BS!
It is possible to criticize Israel and not be anti-Semitic says this Jew. Just like you can be patriotic and despise the moron in the Oval Office for the harm he’s inflicting in the USA.
What is an 'anti-semitic trope' ?
Well, what did they all expect from such a woman?
Do you think she cares what you say. She has an agenda
really out to get her, no?
Religion is so ridiculous
The hypocrisy and outrageous double standards between how the Congresswoman is pressed over her remarks and how the POTUS and other GOP are never even questioned over their intentionally disparaging remarks about Native Americans/Mexicans is absolutely beyond the pale
It’s about time.
It's regrettable that the two members of Congress have become unwitting dupes for terrorist-financed organizations such as Hamas.
Stand strong congresswoman! Antizionism isn’t antisemitic. Some of the most prominent antisemitic including the current occupant of the White House are Zionists.
The great Democratic addition to our foreign affairs committee? YUP!
Please dive deep into her immigration fraud.
Does IlhanMN not understand that North America is a JUDAEO-CHRISTIAN society? We will support who we want! Go back to your dirt hole country that is run by dictator after dictator, because democracy (rule by the people) is fundamentally against the essence of Islam.
What do you expect from a anti-semite
Pelosi is a joke and corrupt. How much money does she get from AIPAC?
I don't see how her comments can be construed as anti-semitic. It's a fact that there's a strong pro-Israel lobbying activities in the US and she's just calling out for what it is.
News flash Dems. Criticizing the Israeli government is not anti-Semitism. And you all wonder why the right beat us time, and time again.
Here is an instance where The art of war is extremely relevant. Attack when strong and your opponent is their weakest. Be still young lady pick your shots
How is saying support for Israel being driven by campaign donations from a prominent pro-Israel group antisemitic? Pay to play is literally how all theses shitbags in American politics operate.
She should be censured!
I am so tired of everyone's religion.
Lots of “blasting” but when it comes down to it they do nothing which means it’s all alright with them....Northam, Fairfax, Omar, etc....
Ong. She told the truth!
She's a TERRORIST!
House democratic leaders should tell us where she lied. Or else someone might think they are in someone's pocket.
Yes, attacking McCarthy is antisemitism but Conservative Evangelicals' support for Israel as a precondition to fulfill the the end times prophecy, during which all non-Christians including the Jewish people go to hell, is not.
Question: Can you be anti-Israeli for treatment of Palestinians without being considered anti-Semitic?
I’m confused. Is this about the Israeli government, or the Jewish religion?
To the 'it's not anti-Semitic' crowd: if a person of color said something was racist, you wouldn't tell them they were wrong and it wasn't racist. You wouldn't 'explain' how it wasn't racist. Why can't you give Jews the same courtesy when they experience anti-Semitism? Be an ally
That should be THE image of the DNC. Well that, and an aborted child
Dems can't join together and release a statement calling for Virginia leadership to resign yet they CAN for this?
What part about anything she said was the anti-semitism?
I'm atheist and I agree that we are beholden to Israel and I can't stand it. I do however think she needs to take off that fucking hoody while in the halls of congress.
Is it PC to 'Blast' a brown female Muslim Asking for a liberal friend..
Kick her out of office! DemocratsAreEvil TheDemocrats
WHAT HOUSE MEMBER and STATE what she said wrong. NOTHING they can be pointed out the EVIL of the EVIL ONES. THEY NOT GOD. ACTUALLY YOU STAND UP TO THEM YOU'LL SEE THERE NOTHING
lol that’s a reach. Hey it must me the monaaaaaay!
I wish we could step back from our Middle East relationships and take a good look at what's truly happening. Rep Omar has good intentions, and we need more than that. CoachPoliti twostates
Remember, foreign countries run our politics.
Nancy Pelosi condemned Omar's comments and called on the Minnesota Democrat to immediately apologize. 'Congresswoman Omar's use of anti-Semitic tropes and prejudicial accusations about Israel's supporters is deeply offensive,' the House speaker said
I do not see those tweets as anti-Semitic or incorrect. Money drives everything and AIPAC contributes a shitload of money
You don’t have to be happy with lobbyists donating to campaigns to forward the wellbeing of one country or political party in that country. That’s not anti-semitic. It’s anti the policies of a fascist nation’a current government.
