Reps. Ilhan Omar (D-Mogadishu) and Jan Schakowsky (D-Lightfootland) have determined to take action against “Islamophobia,” and their initiative is gaining traction. The House Foreign Affairs Committee on Friday approved their bill calling for a State Department “Islamophobia monitor,” and now it will go to the full House for further consideration. The idea that Pelosi’s House would reject such a bill is virtually inconceivable.
This all started back in October, when Omar and Schakowsky introduced the Combating International Islamophobia Act, which would, according to a press release posted on Omar’s website, “require the State Department to create a Special Envoy for monitoring and combating Islamophobia, and include state-sponsored Islamophobic violence and impunity in the Department’s annual human rights reports.”
This would supposedly “help policymakers better understand the interconnected, global problem of anti-Muslim bigotry. It will also establish a comprehensive strategy for establishing U.S. leadership in combatting Islamophobia worldwide.”
The press release said nothing whatsoever about combating jihad terror or about how suspicion of Islam may be created by the all too common spectacle of Muslims committing acts of violence while screaming “Allahu akbar” and justifying their actions by reference to Islamic texts.
Omar and Schakowsky claimed that “this year, the United States has seen over 500 documented complaints of anti-Muslim hate and bias.” Their link went to another press release, this one from the Hamas-linked Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR), claiming that these documented complaints include “hate crimes, harassment, school bullying, discrimination, hate speech, and anti-mosque incidents.”
“Hate speech”: this means that trivial incidents in which someone who is rude to a Muslim gets counted in as a hate crime, inflating the numbers of those crimes and contributing to the false impression that Muslims are victims of widespread discrimination and harassment in America today. With that low a bar, it’s no surprise that the press release at Omar’s site goes on to note that “in March, the United Nations Human Rights Council cited discrimination and hatred towards Muslims has risen to ‘epidemic proportions.”

There is no such thing as islamaphobia. islam is a satanic cult of rape, torture, and murder!!!!! If that skank was in one of the islamic toilets she is so fond of she wpouldn't be running her mouth she would be wearing a trash bag and being beaten every time she opened her disgusting mouth!!!!!
A phobia is an UNREASONABLE fear.
There is nothing unreasonable about a fear of a cult that wants to kill or enslave everyone that isn't one of them.
one pillar of islam is to give alms . what is she doing about afghanistan, which is controlled by the taliban and where a majority are starving
VERMIN, VERMIN, VERMIN, PERIOD!!!
I'm so sick of this person (woman is a term I will NOT use when discribing Makes Me Ilhan Omar). She can say whatever the heck comes into her tiny little racist, anti-Semetic mind but let a Republican member make a joke and all heck breaks loose. No her stupid bill seems to be picking up steam with her fellow House dummies. She should be flown back to Somalia via a Black Hawk helicopter and drop shipped out of the side.
I heartley agree with you
What a douchbag! TIslamaphobia in the country is not the issue. What we have is Jihadaphobia - and that is for a good reason. The Jihadists - including Omar - are criminals and killers!
This evil creature needs to be sent back to Somalia or wherever the hell she came from. She comes to the US, enjoys the government handouts, never gets punished for all the illegal things she has done, but it isn't enough for her!
If this bill passes I know that there is going to be a lot of new faces in Congress come this next election. Anyone who signs this bill, D or R, will be voted out. They came to enjoy our freedoms but not to be assimilated and stand up for our country, but to change us into them. She and all like her, frauds, need to be sent back to the Islamic countries they so soundly defend.
I would hope you might be right but to many are getting handouts and in return give their votes to their providers in congress and locally.
I will be honest and make it clear: If someone declares they are Muslim I look at them with suspicion for my memory of 9/11 has not abated in the least. How could any real American forget the cheering Muslims blocking the streets in celebration when the towers were hit? Not me, not ever.
Every talk and action by Omar is anti-American. She is but another radical educated in Somalia in an Islamist envirorment, to wit: Obama and herself.
