Rep. Ilhan Omar Calls for Dismantling Department of Homeland Security

A generation after the Islamic terrorist attacks of September 11, we have a Muslim mayor dismantling the NYPD and we have Rep. Ilhan Omar talking about dismantling the Department of Homeland Security.

“There is a lot of conversation about what the dismantlement of the Department of Homeland Security should look like,” Rep. Omar said, who once described 9/11 as “some people did something.”

I’m sure. All the way from Afghanistan to Iran to Qatar. Lots of conversations.

Ilhan Omar says Democrats don’t just want to abolish ICE, they’re already planning how they will dismantle DHS entirely.

Terrorists for dismantling counterterrorism isn’t exactly news. Bank robbers generally don’t like bank guards either. But our flavor of terrorists spend a lot of time shouting that guarding the things they want to blow up is racist.

While we generally note that Omar hates America and yes, obviously Jews and Christians, and then there’s the whole complicated personal life seemingly involving adultery and incest, we tend to overlook the ties to enemy regimes closely linked to Islamic terrorism.

Last year the terrorist sympathizer and her new husband jetted off to Doha for the World Cup games where she shared pictures of them posing with soccer star David Beckham and an unknown man in a burnoose. Omar offered scant further details on the trip where she was seen in the stadium with a good view of the games, but in her financial disclosure she was forced to reveal that the Qatari regime paid for her meals and hotel room.

And that a trip to Pakistan had been paid for by the Pakistani government.

During her visit, Omar met with Pakistani Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif who had initiated negotiations with Al Qaeda and offered to  “reestablish normal relations as long as they do not conduct operations in Punjab”. Pakistan’s former ambassador to the United States had claimed that Osama bin Laden had backed Sharif’s brother. Rep. Omar also met with former Prime Minister Imran Khan, nicknamed ‘Taliban Khan’, who had referred to Bin Laden as a “martyr”.

Omar’s Qatari trip also took her into the heartland of Islamic terrorism.

The 9/11 Commission Report revealed that Khalid Sheikh Mohammed had evaded capture after the World Trade Center bombing due to the intervention of a prominent Qatari official allowing him to continue the terror plots that led to the September 11 attacks. A Times story claimed the “government of Qatar is paying millions of pounds a year to Al-Qaeda”.

Qatar hosts the Muslim Brotherhood, along with the Taliban negotiations that convinced the United States to allow the Jihadists to take over Afghanistan, and is allied with Iran. It’s also a backer of Hamas: the Muslim Brotherhood terror group responsible for the murder of Israelis.

Javed, who at one point explored a congressional bid, is a supporter of Imran Khan, who had hailed Osama bin Laden as a martyr. The Pakistani businessman had hosted a fundraiser for Omar and donated to her campaign

The real question isn’t how Rep. Ilhan Omar feels about dismantling the Department of Homeland Security, how do Qatar and Pakistan feel about it?
