The US-designated terrorist organization Hamas thanked Congresswoman Ilhan Omar (D-MN) for supporting the “just rights of the Palestinian people.” Last week, Omar grouped the US and Israel together with the Taliban and Hamas, asserting that all sides have committed “unthinkable atrocities.”
Hamas – whose charter calls for the murder of Jews worldwide – said it “highly appreciates” Omar’s stances, but at the same time called its comparison to the Jewish state “unfair.”
After pushback from fellow House Democrats, Omar backtracked, saying that she was “in no way equating terrorist organizations with democratic countries.” All the while, some mainstream media were seemingly keen to jump to Omar’s defense.
