She has a heart of a lion and is honest about the injustices surrounding us.

Many do not like her as they want her to behave like any other politician that have sold their morals and values in exchange for power.

Ilhan is most definitely an unusual politician, but she is someone I can get behind.

She should stay away from the Israeli palestinian conflict and focus more on what she can do for her own community.

She should most definitely focus on issues that are important to the Somali community first and foremost.

However, i don't believe a morally conscious person can sit there and condone the awful treatments of the Palestinians. That is why I consider politics a dirty game.

Many here expect her to get behind the Israelis in order to further her agenda in helping her people. However, doing this at the expense of ones integrity is a dirty game.

Abaayo.
Politics is a dirty game and sometimes you have to navigate in murky waters and form alliances to further your own agenda.
If it was the other way around, the Arabs won't even hesitate for a minute to throw the Somalis under the bus to further their own agenda. That's a fact.
 
the reason is that most black americans still don't know that much about the community she comes from. They just think she is black and so they instinctively try to protect her.

ok tell thm not to protect her,,guess she can go without thm
people supporting her are 95% white,even david duke!

Trust me david duke has no power in the united states congress....especially not with the democrats. Without the support of the black caucus this woman will not be on any committee in congress.

duke have power with most southerners, but comn across many many videos was surprised how much ovawhelming support she got from whites,even the comments were 98% in her favor. anyway guess fine with black support and fine without it,,they not her constituency.

Right they are not her constituency but her constituency does not put her on committees in congress. She can be easily relegated to the sidelines in congress and not put on any of the high profile committees if the black caucus wanted it.

she still could be there if the white majority in congress vote for her. if she is member of the black caucus sure theres consideration but if she counted as otha then she a member of the rest and might even be given better position cos she tiny minority,actually that might work to her benefit..

You don't get it....the rest of congress are in the pocket of AIPAC the jewish lobbying group...on both sides of the aisle..democrats and republicans. She would be considered toxic for most of them to get too close to her. Without black caucus support she would be alone and vulnerable and won't last long. It was mostly the black caucus who pushed back against pelosi from condemning her. Others have tried this in the past and once AIPAC targets them they are gone soon thereafter.
 
ok she member of the black caucus then:)
anyway i dont support her,she too fast shouldve concentrated on her constituency.

100% agree that she should have quietly taken care of her constituents and maybe start making more noises after a few years. The democrats will pay a steep price for putting someone like her front and center.
 
Here is cynthia mckinney who was a black congresswoman some years ago saying the same thing that omar is saying.....she was targeted by AIPAC and didn't last long after that.
