"Her father, Nur Omar Mohamed, first received acclaim as a colonel in the Somali army leading a regiment during the Somalian invasion of Ethiopia in 1977. He went on with a prestigious career in the military, which ended in 1991 after the dictatorial Marxist regime of Mohammed Siad Barre was ousted from power. I say prestigious if you ignore the genocidal campaign that he waged against northern secessionists in Somaliland.
"According to the MacMillan Center for International and Area Studies at Yale and their Genocide Studies Program:" . . .
When was Ilhan Omar born? - American Thinker . . . "So the question is, what year is Omar, or Ilhan Nur Said Elmi, referring to? Does she mean 1988, 1989, 1990, or 1991 as the start of the war? She can’t mean 1981 or earlier. But she did title the chapter “1989–91.” This would mean she was 8 years old in 1989, so 1981 would be her birth year.
"But then that makes me a right-wing conspirator, according to Omar. You decide." Omar’s second husband was a dirty what?
Ilhan Omar's family history make her genocide allegations against Israel even more outrageous "Rep. Ilhan Omar’s apparent lies about her family and finances are bad enough, but nothing is as outrageous as the way she slanders Israel with the “genocide” libel when her own father in all likelihood took part in Somali dictator Siad Barre’s real genocide.
"Omar in her memoir calls her father Nur Omar Mohamed an “educator,” yet it looks like the only educating he did was teaching Barre’s enemies lessons in brutality as a colonel in the Somali Army in the 1980s.
"The Barre regime committed horrific atrocities against the Isaaq clan, killing at least 200,000 and displacing another 900,000 in a massive ethnic cleansing.
"The United Nations, Human Rights Watch, the International Crisis Group and virtually every other authority agrees that the campaign against the Isaaq was genocidal in intent and in practice: Government forces strafed fleeing civilians, planted land mines at wells and systematically raped girls and women.
"There can be little doubt that Omar’s dad was involved in the genocide. As historian and Oxford University doctoral researcher Mohamed Haji Ingiriis told The Post, “Nur Said was a military officer who was loyal to the regime until the end. He was part and parcel of those who caused and created the mayhem they ‘fled’ to live comfortably in the United States.'” . . .
