New York Post’s front page calls out Rep. Ilhan Omar’s 9/11 comments: ‘Here’s your something’

The New York Post on Thursday hit back at Rep. Ilhan Omar, D-Minn., following her recent comments on the September 11, 2001 terror attacks.

The dramatic front page featured an infamous photo of New York City’s Twin Towers on fire on the day of the attacks. The towers collapsed after they were hit by hijacked planes. Nearly 3,000 people were killed in the 9/11 attacks.

The page read: “Rep. Ilhan Omar: 9/11 was ‘some people did something.’” “Here’s your something: 2,977 people dead by terrorism.”

Can someone please post the picture of the NY Post front page, I can't do it. It is a picture right in this article at the link.

The post accurately pointed out how bad it was that Omar characterized the terror attacks as "some people did something."

More Pullitzer-worthy than anything that’s won in many years.

The something they did was jihad, which is the religious obligation of EVERY muslim.

There are no safe followers of Mohammed.
Sooner or later they will start following his example.

They should have included a photo of people “jumping” out of the Towers to their deaths. I will never forget the horror of that day unlike many Liberal slimes in New York City and elsewhere!!

Can’t wait. Until AOC tweets some nonsense defending the jihadist bitch...

She is a NYC congressional rep and let’s see how tone deaf and stupid she is..?

First Member of Congress to ever describe terrorists who killed thousands of Americans on 9/11 as “some people who did something”.

Unbelievable. https://t.co/IKtoZWWmIT— Dan Crenshaw (@DanCrenshawTX) April 9, 2019

----------------

You refuse to cosponsor the 9/11 Victim’s Compensation Fund, yet have the audacity to drum resentment towards Ilhan w/completely out-of-context quotes.

In 2018, right-wing extremists were behind almost ALL US domestic terrorist killings. Why don’t you go do something about that? https://t.co/rkb92IxkKX— Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (@AOC) April 11, 2019

This is dangerous incitement, given the death threats I face. I hope leaders of both parties will join me in condemning it.

My love and commitment to our country and that of my colleagues should never be in question. We are ALL Americans! pic.twitter.com/foTZMpiZKv— Ilhan Omar (@IlhanMN) April 10, 2019

-----------------------------

1. I never called you un-American.

2. I did not incite any violence against you.

3. You described an act of terrorism on American soil that killed thousands of innocent lives as “some people did something.”

It’s still unbelievable, as is your response here. https://t.co/SsfWYepOS1— Dan Crenshaw (@DanCrenshawTX) April 10, 2019

For some reason, the jumping pics aren’t shown much, anymore.

At any rate...I am glad that the NY Post called this witch out.

She should be forced to watch the news vids of that horrible day....with the sound turned way up, for hours.

These three despicable women would be proud of what the terrorists did. The loss of so many lives is not anything they care about.

defenders claim quote was out of context 20 minute speech. Well, if she used very descriptive terms or strong adjectives as “did something horrible” .... or killed thousands...
In light of her past comments on anything , she sounded like she intentionally avoided strong 9/11 images.

https://www.mediamatters.org/blog/2019/04/10/right-wing-media-amplify-absurd-interpretation-something-rep-ilhan-omar-said-about-911/223404

Because here’s the truth — here’s the truth: Far too long, we have lived with the discomfort of being a second-class citizen, and frankly, I’m tired of it, and every single Muslim in this country should be tired of it. CAIR was founded after 9/11 because they recognized that some people did something and that all of us were starting to lose access to our civil liberties. So you can’t just say that today someone is looking at me strange, that I am going to try to make myself look pleasant. You have to say, “This person is looking at me strange. I am not comfortable with it. I am going to go talk to them and ask them why.” Because that is a right you have.
