Ilhan blamed not growing up in America for being unwittingly antisemitic and apologized for it. So this is what she meant?She did not name the name I.Omar though. But I am sure she was hinting on Ms Omar Anti Semite views. Somalis are automatically allergic to Jews or Yuhud. Whenever I sit with older women and men at any gatherings, they are always quick to mention a Jew.
"Oh this one is a jew. Or he has ears of a jew. Or this is married to a Jew"
I mean, the energy invested to spotting a jew, if they were in the jungle , their hunting carts will be filled with Jews strung with Masaii spears.
^The tweet links to Wall Street Journal article Ayan wrote, where she mentions Ilhan multiple times.
This is so late. Late night TV has been inundated, and formal apologies were given. I don’t understand the point loool.

She said to please correct her when she makes contextual mistakes like this, bc she doesn’t want to hurt anyone.
I like Ayaan too. And it’s unquestionable that she’s intelligent. She didn’t need Somali support to reach her heights either. The opposite, she excelled despite the average Somali hating her guts lol.I have to confess I am not a fan of hers. I also have a guilty confession that I like Ayaan more even though my brain instructs me to hate her as she is actively anti islam. I like Ayaans intelligence and accomplishments in securing that accomplished husband of hers. Ilhaan annoys me in ALL fronts except her imaan in Islam

But Ilhan is her contemporary. She shouldn’t attack her. Even though Ilhan Omar did need Somalis to reach her heights, she didn’t let her religion get in the way of her politics when she got there, which is also an intelligent move. Ilhan is hardly the perfect scary Muslim to make her target. This one’s a fail for Ayan.
Looks like someone is getting jealous of Ilhan's popularity in the West, she is probably wondering how she did it without becoming a gaal:siilaanyolaugh:

At least Ilhan didn't lie on her asylum application. Can't believe people still listen to this fraud.
It must be a super profitable business to be a black/other poc/gay/woman/Muslim/transgender grifter and make a living telling conservatives on why they shouldn't trust the black/other poc/gay/woman/Muslim/transgender community.
Ilhaan married her brother to get him US papers
Wasn't that a lie made up on SSPot that USA right wing media ran with?
I think user AbdiJew made it up
That was literally sh*t made up by @R.Kelly himself and eventually picked up by the conservatives as a smearing campaign against her. Where's the actual proof she's done this?
Rkelly did not make it up. He just reported it here in the forums. lol The streets are talking
I read her book. She endured some shit. I don’t think she sold her soul. I think her soul is exactly where it wants to be. She directed her ire towards the religion.Ilhaan might make Intelligent move, but I dont think she is intelligent. And great point, Ayaan got where she is without Somalis help. By her own, even if she had to sell her soul to get there, but we r talking about strategy here, not morality.
Where's the proof?

We get shocked by bombings which are an everyday thing over there, but can you imagine what some people back home are going through otherwise. Even diaspora Somalis are getting into situations where they’re forced to marry, or tied by their feet and hands to buildings for Quran camps ffs.

There’s more than one. I read the first. I kept coming across her in Youtube debates and was curious about her. She’s Somali after all.You read Ayaan book? Wow. Power to u. I cant say I have had that displeasure. No I admire her to an extent, but not enough to read her book. The only bios I read are characters I am obsessed with. Like the 5th duchess of Devonshire
