Ilhan Omar, the Democratic representative in Congress for a suburban district in Minneapolis, has long been advocating for the removal of “disinformation” from public discourse concerning pertinent issues.
However, this policy seems to be only applicable to “disinformation” which she personally disagrees with. This was made evident over the weekend when she spread false information regarding the war between Hamas and Israel which began a week ago.
According to Israeli Defense Force reports, an estimated 1,200 people were killed in the initial attack by Hamas terrorists including babies who were decapitated.
In response to this tragedy, Omar posted an image of children lying dead on a floor wrapped in white with accompanying text indicating 614 Palestinian children had been murdered by Israeli Occupation Forces.
You mean like this, @AOC? @IlhanMN is spreading dangerous misinformation, blaming Israel for killing kids who were killed by Assad in Syria 10 years ago.
Once again, the Squad doesn’t let the facts get in the way of their anti-Israel narrative. https://t.co/Ss1RitTpRZ pic.twitter.com/gJoho7cO4f

Constitutional expert and legal commentator Jonathan Turley noted that Omar has long been a leading proponent of censorship and speech regulations in order to combat disinformation.
Her recent offense was posting a picture purportedly showing children killed by Israeli forces, when in reality it was from a 2013 sarin gas attack in Ghouta, Syria.
Turley argued that this incident should serve as an example of how free speech allows for its own disinfectant – bad speech is countered by better speech as the public judges what is true and what is false.
The New York Post reported on Omar’s post after fellow Democratic Socialist Rep Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez warned about the high level of misinformation circulating online concerning the Israel-Hamas war.
The level of misinformation in all directions at this moment is incredibly high, especially on this platform.
If you see a claim, photo, or video that triggers a strong emotional reaction, take a moment to pause and check for veracity/confirmation from multiple sources.

The American Israel Public Affairs Committee addressed Representative Omar, stating that “spreading misinformation blaming Israel for the deaths of children in Syria a decade ago is dangerous and irresponsible.”

ilhan is a Fu**ing Muslim terrorist just like Rashid Tlahib, and they must be eliminated for backing those murdering Hamas subhuman Muslims, other than that who ever heard of decapitation of babies and burning babies alive, other than evil subhuman Muslims.?
Kill every last Muslim in the world and we’ll be free of mass murdering inhuman Muslims and those who fly the Palestinian flag.
That’s easily done since the country knows they’re all lib trash.
These 5 women are a stain on most women. They give women in general a bad name. They are lying, divisive, hate filled baby killing scum. How their districts can elect such low lifes is beyond me.

They would all be crying to come back for all the freedom taken from those ungrateful sows.
Kick these feckless unAmerican skanks out of the US!!!
Time for the lies to stop, past time.
Typical Dem,,,, a national disgrace.
How about a cattle plane and ship these pigs back to the land of their forefathers? They are certainly not Americans.
THE ISLAMIC THREAT…. Thanks to all of the squad. You are showing Americans just the type politicians who aid and abed terrorists. America you had best wake up to the ‘Real’ Islamic threat for many of your so-called leaders have demonstrated many times over the years they do not have the wisdom nor the courage to deal with terrorism at the hands of radical Muslims.
NOTE: The information presented herein has been submitted many times since 1982 by several of the officers serving on the counter-terrorism team charged with assessing/addressing the threat to DOD personnel deployed overseas and developing strategy/tactics to combat the threat. To date few Americans and their so-called leaders have given due attention to the ‘REAL’ threat presented by radical Muslims.
Question: The Islamic State, the Nation of Islam, CARE, ISIS, HAMAS, and many other Muslim groups; what do they all have in common? Answer: They all have the same ultimate objectives!
Those objectives are to: 1). Fully install Sharia as the only governing philosophy in the world, and 2). Install Muhammad as the last true prophet and his teachings supposedly inspired by the ‘truths’ delivered to him in a cave by Gabriel (an angel of the one and only God) sometime between 610 – 613 CE as the only law and religion of the land. Those same truths/teachings which became institutionalized in the Quran, the Hadith, and the Sira; which are the three most important foundation documents providing the bases for Sharia.
Per personal knowledge/experience gained as a military officer with many years of service in combating terrorism at the hands of various Muslim and other groups, I can inform all Americans willing to listen as to the reasons why I and many of my fellow officers have warned the American government many times as to why Islam is much different than any other religion/governing philosophy, and why all Islamic groups present a significant threat to America.
The simple reason the Islamic State, the Nation of Islam, CARE, ISIS, HAMAS, etc. are so dangerous is the range of strategies/tactics they claim were/are mandated to be employed by the Prophet himself. If you doubt me just watch those individual Muslims who are implanted in the U.S. House of Representatives as they deal with their comrades, the media, and the American people. I simply find it pitiful as to how unskilled they are, yet their comrades in the government, the public, and the media seem oblivious to their true objectives. I as an old ground combat/counter-terrorist soldier would say this to their audiences; “I can’t believe you knuckleheads, you let the enemy walk up and kiss you right on the mouth before they gut you and/or cut your throat!”
Don’t feel bad that most of you may have been so blind reference the threat from Islam and the range of their tactics (lie, cheat, steal, kill, whatever required to rid the world of non-believers). Mr. Reagan and most of his administration failed to give the threat they were provided by the army officers mentioned above in 1982 adequate attention. Even after two Muslim terrorists less than a year later in 1983 killed over 200 marines, several sailors, one soldier, and 40 French soldiers in Lebanon; our arrogance, lack of knowledge, and stupidity has continued to leave us seriously ill prepared. Now the Muslim community can count among their best allies the American media, the American left, and the hordes of simply ignorant deniers! If you are one of the ill informed don’t fret too much. I am offering free classes to teach the eight prayers you need learn to start your personal conversion to Islam. Oh, you will need to bring your own rug.
Final Note: Would you like to know the primary tactic the team of army officers mentioned above presented to the Reagan administration? The basic tactic was: “In that the best defense is a good offense we must kill the terrorists in their beds before they kills us in ours!”

Thanks for all you are doing!
Grace Jones
She has to make things up so she can blame Israel for what is happening in Gaza. She has no credibility. I cannot fathom why those people that voted for her, can’t see her deception. Maybe those folks may learn that all she does is lie?
