Ziva Dahl "As if we needed any more evidence of the Democratic Party’s capitulation to the anti-Israel Left, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi has endorsed for re-election the notorious anti-Semite and Israel hater Rep. Ilhan Omar, rejecting Omar’s four challengers, including Antone Melton-Meaux, a popular black pro-Israel progressive.
"Minnesota’s 5th district, one of the safest Democratic seats in the country, is holding its primary on August 11. “Ilhan is a valued and important member of our Caucus,” said Pelosi in her endorsement statement. “In her first term, Ilhan has already established herself as a leader on a host of issues – from child nutrition to housing to U.S.-Africa relations.”
"This is the Ilhan Omar whose slurs about Jewish dual loyalty and money buying influence (“It’s all about the Benjamins, baby.”) were ranked among the top ten anti-Semitic incidents of 2019 by the Simon Wiesenthal Center.
"In March 2019, in response to the uproar, even in her own party, about Omar’s hateful comments, Pelosi passed a watered-down, non-binding House resolution condemning anti-Semitism and Islamophobia, but failing to call out Omar by name. And she kept Omar on the House Foreign Affairs Committee, attributing the congresswoman’s Jew-hatred to a “language problem.” . . .
"Ilhan Omar has a problem with American Jews, whom she libels with well-recognized anti-Semitic tropes. She also has a problem with Israel -- the only country in its region that embraces the values the Democratic Party claims to champion. She accuses the Jewish state of “hypnotizing the world” and supports the campaign to eliminate it.
"But Democratic House Speaker Nancy Pelosi doesn’t have a problem with Ilhan Omar. She had the power to get rid of Omar in the same way the Republicans got rid of Steve King (R-IA) for his racist and sexist remarks. Instead, she did the opposite. Why? This shrewd politician raised a finger to see which way the wind is blowing in her party… and it’s not with Israel."
Jews Need to Jexit from Democrat-Left Racist Poison . . . "All Americans, particularly Jews, the people who introduced liberal enlightened values to the world, should be ashamed of embracing any of the values of this Democrat-left party — especially its racism. It has been a poison on the American soul since its inception. Now, 170 years later, its poison is as noxious and deep in all areas of American life. Its new variation of raw, crude, virulent segregation/separatist racism is one of its most evil brews infecting our beautiful country."

Arutz Sheva: House Speaker backs controversial Minnesota representative, while pro-Israel donors back rival Democrat.
. . . "Antone Melton-Meaux, one of four challengers to Omar in the Aug. 11 primary, has fundraised nationally in part by rebuking Omar for her Israel policies. Omar is one of two Democrats in the House who back the boycott Israel movement." . . .
Antone Melton-Meaux seeks to unseat Ilhan Omar in CD5
“I'm the proud son of two parents that understood the power of hard work, perseverance and community. My father actually integrated his high school in Mercer County, Kentucky in the 1950s, went on and served our country in the military, receiving a Purple Heart and a Bronze Star,” he said, explaining that his father used GI Bill money to attend the University of Kentucky. “He was the first African American electrical engineer in the history of that school. Then, he went on to have a very long distinguished career designing aircraft engines for General Electric.
. . . In 2018, I started to pay more attention to Congresswoman Omar after she made some really hurtful comments towards the Jewish community and towards Israel, a community that's important just as any other in our neighborhoods here."
