Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN) claims that America was “founded by genocide,” according to recently unearthed tweets.

“We must confront that our nation was founded by genocide and we maintain global power through neocolonialism,” Omar said in a 2017 tweet.

Rep. Ilhan Omar, D-Minn., wrote in 2017 that America was founded by genocide and our foreign policy smacks of “neocolonialism.” “We must confront that our nation was founded by genocide and we maintain global power through neocolonialism,” Omar said in a tweet linking a Time article titled “Unity Will Take Generations” she wrote about the August 2017 white supremacist rally Charlottesville, Va.

Omar elaborated on her comment more in the article.

“We must confront that our nation was founded by the genocide of indigenous people and on the backs of slaves, that we maintain global power with the tenor of neocolonialism,” she said.

Omar has drawn huge controversy in recent days and weeks. She was recently forced to defend 9/11 comments she made last month referring to the event as “some people did something.” …

It wasn’t founded by genocide but if it helped along the way, I’m good with it.

Like I said, how many peoples still control the lands they did 2000 years ago?

It’s life. Live with it.

what ever it is we like it that way and it is better off without people who believe as you do.

I lived in the middle east and there is not a damn thing there that I wanted here in my country.

Listening to this witch just makes more sure of that attitude.

She’s projecting. Islam is steeped in genocide.

Margaret Thatcher said that Europe was created by history and America was created through philosophy.

Omar is an idiot.

She should try to take on Texas.

The future of Texas was a battle between the Meskins, Commanches and the Texicans.

Winner takes all.

No second place.

Because a quarter of a million people voted for her vs. 75,000 who voted for the Republican who ran against her.

You’re asking the wrong question.

“I wonder what history books she’s been reading? She just keeps making it worse and worse... “

Koran would be my guess.

I think what she meant to say was that the spread of Islam was done by genocide

This is the type of vermin that can creep onto your property if you don’t keep up with routine maintenance and fail to regularly take out the trash.
