No Wonder Rep. Omar Is Lashing Out

[Marion Morrison]

She has advocated for leniency for terrorists. Either Democrats can cut the cancer out of their party, or Americans will fix it next year.

 

[Marion Morrison]

Nothing to do with her religion. She requested leniency for ISIS, and has expressed support for terror orgs.

You are going to have to provide a VERY reliable link to that... and not TruePundit or some other bullshit site. EXACT quotes too, not someone else paraphrasing her.

It’s true. Now do you think she should be kicked out of congress?

No, what you guys said is not true. They "tried" to join ISIS. I'm not going to defend someone that wants to join a terrorist organization that is an enemy of the U.S., but at the same time they did not officially join ISIS and they haven't supported or committed murder or other terrorists acts.

Do you think it would be fair to give the same sentence to a person that is convicted of saying they want to kill someone, as a person that actually killed someone?

In cases of terrorism against the United States? Were it my call, I would have them all - active fighters and recruits - shot in the head upon detection.

They hadn't actually joined....

She is absolutely right however that giving a 20 year old a 30 year sentence is wrong. In that case after 30 years all you will have is a man that has sat in jail alongside others and gotten more and more angry at the country and when finally released will be more of a danger than before being locked up. So that leaves two options:

1. You give a much lighter sentence where you can work to rehabilitate the young men into being contributors to society, and show others like their family, friends, and other Muslims in the community that the United States is the same place for everyone where there are places for second chances. This type of action could not only prevent one future terrorist, but several. If you know anything about psychology, experts say that the part of the human brain that allows us to look at our actions and understand future consequences doesn't fully develop until our mid-20's, and is often why in court it is used as a mitigating factor.

2. The second option would be either lock them up for life or put them to death. You will have to make that choice yourself, as putting people to death for what these guys did would make us no better than the ISIS members that are lopping off-heads overseas. The only difference would be when the UN brings it up that we are being inhumane by giving the death penalty for crimes that do not fit that punishment, the U.S. has veto power in the UN and our government would tell them to take their sanctions and go fuck theirselves. So you choose who you want to be viewed as.

ISIS should be publicly hanged by the neck until dead. 20-30 years my ass.

Why do we collect violent bad guys into boxes at our expense anyway?

How is this beneficial to society?

 

[MisterBeale]

Her friends are about done.

Heads bowed to the ground, suspected IS members surrender

Yes, you are right... when people like you automatically tie her in with terrorists just because of her religion, that's why she lashes out against people who blindly support Israel.

I'm sorry buddy, I did the research . . .


And you are just WRONG.

You are being deceived. Willingly being partisan blind? Or knowingly spreading misinformation? I do not know.

Ilhan Omar to Speak Alongside Charity Official who Praised Killing of Jews
Ilhan Omar to Speak Alongside Charity Official who Praised Killing of Jews

UPDATE: After the story below was covered by Jerusalem Post, Washington Examiner, Daily WIre, JNS and other publications, Islamic Relief removed Yousef Abdallah's name from the event. Then, Jeremy Slavin, who claims to work for Rep. Omar, publicly messaged us to claim that: "This story is inaccurate. Yousef Abdallah will not be speaking or attending the event with Rep. Omar and was never scheduled to do so. Please correct."

This is astoundingly incorrect, and appears to be a deliberate attempt to deceive. Unfortunately for Mr Slavin, we have copies of the original poster as it appeared (as recently as) this morning.

Charity Islamic Relief USA: strong ties to terrorism and US refugees
Charity Islamic Relief USA: strong ties to terrorism and US refugees - Center for Security Policy

". . . . All of this charity work would seem charitable except that the IRUSA and IRW have many ties to Islamist terrorist organizations.


In 1999, the IRW accepted a $50,000 check from Osama Bin Laden. In 2006, Israel arrested its project coordinator in its Gaza office, Iyaz Ali, for funneling money to Hamas. In November 2012, the British Bank UBS closed the IRW’s account and blocked its customers from donating to the charity. In June 2014, Israel officially declared the organization to be illegal and banned it from operating in Israel and the Palestinian territories due to its financing of Hamas. In November 2014, the United Arab Emirates declared the IRW to be a terrorist group.


Legally, the IRUSA as an institution and charity is separate and independent from the IRW. However, as an IRW affiliate, it has many links to the IRW, and therefore has many links to terrorism. The IRUSA’s CEO, Abed Ayoub, is an IRW governance committee member. Its president, Mohamed Amr Attaiwa, is on the IRW’s Board of Trustees. In addition to the relationship between the IRW and the IRUSA created through shared leadership, money flows between the two organizations. In 2007, 2008, and 2009, the IRUSA sent the IRW $5 million, $6 million, and $9.5 million, respectively. Most IRUSA programs are funded through IRW grants; in 2010, the IRUSA received approximately $22 billion from the IRW.


The IRUSA has multiple officials with direct ties to the Muslim Brotherhood (MB).


The IRUSA’s President and Board Chairman, Mohamed Amr Attaiwa, was listed as the MB’s New England Director in a phone directory from 1991. At one time, Attaiwa served as the Vice President of the Muslim American Society, which was once described by federal prosecutors as “the overt arm of the Muslim Brotherhood in America.” An admitted MB member and convicted terrorist, Abdurraham Alamoudi, has openly said that the Muslim American Society is a part of the MB.


The IRUSA’s Operations Manager (a point of contact and speaker at many IRUSA fundraisers) is Ahmed Shehata, who was one of the 21 Muslim brotherhood leaders arrested in Alexandria, Egypt in January 2009. Ahmed Shehata has liked at least eighteen pro-MB pages on Facebook as well.


Hamdy Radwan, who has served on the IRUSA’s Board of Directors since 2012 said in an interview in November 2006, that he views Hamas as a group of freedom fighters, rather than as a terrorist organization. . . . "


It goes on and on. Folks that aren't naive know how this all works.

Posting a fucking website that is an anti-Islamic site as your source does you absolutely nothing. That's like citing David Duke to say why Black Lives Matters is a bad organization or vice versa.

Agreed. That is a fair criticism if you can point out that any of the above FACTS are false.


Ad hominem (Latin for "to the person"[1]), short for argumentum ad hominem, is a fallacious argumentative strategy whereby genuine discussion of the topic at hand is avoided by instead attacking the character, motive, or other attribute of the person making the argument, or persons associated with the argument, rather than attacking the substance of the argument itself.[2]
