Rep. Omar Declares Support for Terrorist Financier’s Company in Her Native Somalia
Judicial Watch ^ | September 03, 2019 | Judicial Watch

A controversial Minnesota congresswoman known for racially inflammatory anti-Semitic views has publicly declared her support for a terrorist organization in her native Somalia. Democrat Ilhan Omar is demanding that a telecommunications company founded and operated by a renowned terrorist financier, receive protection from that country’s government and peacekeeping forces. An Israeli-based newspaper broke the story a few days ago, but the American mainstream media has been notably silent on the matter.

The company, Hormuud Telecommunications, was created and is operated by Ahmed Nur Ali Jim’ale, a chief financier of al–Shabaab, an east African-based jihadist group that serves as Al Qaeda’s affiliate in Somalia. In her social media account, Omar writes that Somalia’s government and peacekeeping forces need to protect Hormuud and the Somali telecom industry as they make enormous contributions to the economy and provide vital services. “During my visit to Somalia in 2011, I was surprised by the quick evolution of technology in Somalia,” Omar posts, indirectly praising the telecom firm with terrorist ties. The Israeli article includes the links to a pair of United Nations Security Council reports documenting Hormuud’s direct support for al-Shabaab.

According to the first U.N. report: “Ali Ahmed Nur Jim’ale (Jim’ale) has served in leadership roles with the former Somali Council of Islamic Courts, also known as the Somali Islamic Courts Union, which was a radical-Islamist element. The most radical elements of the Somali Islamic Courts Union eventually formed the group known as al–Shabaab.” The document also identifies Jim’ale, a prominent businessman who controls Hormuud, as one of al-Shabab’s chief financiers. “Hormuud Telecommunications is a company identified as being one of the single largest financiers of al-Shabaab, which includes large lump sum payments to al-Shabaab in the hundreds of thousands of dollars and these payments toal-Shabaab were facilitated by Jim’ale," . . .

“Git up in the back of mah truck, honey!” — that’s what he says.

Oh, wait, these are Somalis. Never mind.

“...Oh, wait, these are Somalis. Never mind....”
Anyone that’s ever worked in oil/gas in the middle east knows that Somalis are the worst of the worst over there. And our dumb-azz politicians saw fit to bring that filthy trash into our country. Yet, not a single one of em was ever indicted, arrested, convicted, etc. for it. Now, we’re stuck with this crap in our govt.

There must be a reason that Pelosi is protecting her. Can we say blackmail?

“Somalia: ‘People are dying of hunger...there’s no water’”

She is obviously concentrating on the things that are really important to her.

Pelosi isn’t strong enough. She used to be but she is too far over the hill to handle this.

She does stealth jihad and civilization jihad, IMO — Islamic holy war without a bomb vest or a machine gun.

At some point I think that won’t be good enough for her though.
I’m going to have very mixed emotions when she pushes the button somewhere inside the Capitol Building.

Will they still be siblings? I don't know how these Muslim things work.
