...Omar is a bigot with a long history of making virulent antisemitic remarks. She has said that when she hears people call Israel a democracy “I almost chuckle,” [https://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2019/jan/31/ilhan-omar-i-almost-chuckle-when-people-call-israe/] that “Israel has hypnotized the world” [https://www.timesofisrael.com/rep-ilhan-omar-defends-2012-tweet-accusing-israel-of-hypnotizing-the-world/] and that she prays that Allah will “awaken the people and help them see the evil doings of Israel.” She shared a cartoon [https://www.jpost.com/american-politics/ihan-omar-rashida-tlaib-share-holocaust-contest-prize-winner-cartoon-599006] on social media that was drawn by the second-place winner of Iran’s Holocaust denial cartoon contest.

And she has said that politicians who support Israel “push for allegiance to a foreign country” [https://www.npr.org/2019/03/04/700163118/democrats-planning-another-public-rebuke-of-rep-ilhan-omar] — accusing Israel supporters in Congress of dual loyalty, a classic antisemitic trope.

So, her most recent invective was not an isolated comment that needed “clarification.” It was the latest in a long string of antisemitic diatribes that have disgraced the House Democratic caucus. Yet despite this history, not only has Pelosi tolerated Omar’s abhorrent behavior; she also appointed [https://www.timesofisrael.com/bds-backer-ilhan-omar-given-seat-on-powerful-house-foreign-affairs-panel/] Omar to the House Foreign Affairs Committee, which helps determine U.S. policy on the Middle East. And this year Pelosi elevated [https://omar.house.gov/media/press-releases/rep-omar-new-vice-chair-house-foreign-affairs-subcommittee-africa] Omar to serve as vice chair of the subcommittee on Africa. A person who compares America and Israel to the Taliban and Hamas has no business serving on that panel.
