    Research | Articles | by Ayaan Hirsi Ali
    Thursday, August 24, 2017

George and Amal Clooney even got in on the action, promising to donate another $1 million.

    Thank You, Representative Ilhan Omar

    Research | Articles
    Wednesday, July 31, 2019

    As a congressional representative, Ilhan Omar has masterfully manipulated American freedom in order to make anti-Semitism a more accepted idea. She has admirably done the work of the Muslim Brotherhood in normalizing anti-Semitism in the land of the free. By cloaking the evil as merely an expression of her freedom of speech, she has removed the "racist portrayal of Jews from the neo-Nazi fringe into the mainstream." She has mastered the art of psychological warfare as she couples "Muslim anti-Semitism with the American left's vague notion of 'social justice.'" She has shown her bona fides as a representative of the jihad on free speech while vigorously claiming this vital freedom.
