Newsweek magazine is in hot water for “normalizing” hate after featuring embattled Minnesota Democrat Ilhan Omar as the cover story about how she shifted the Democratic Party and the conversation about Israel.

Omar, who has faced repeated controversies over her comments about Israel and supporters of the Jewish state, was put on the cover of Newsweek’s latest issue with the headline “Ilhan Omar, The Democrats And Israel.”

Social media went into a frenzy over the magazine’s issue, criticizing the publication for further legitimizing Omar’s views on Israel.

Were Rep. Ilhan Omar’s controversial comments ant-Semitic?

Really? This was a serious question?

I don't know, but I haven't seen a physical copy of it in at least fifteen years.

My doctor's office has Time, and my dentist doesn't have any magazines because all his patients have cell phones and wouldn't look at them anyway.

Islam is anti-Semitic.

Islam is anti-everything-that-is-not-Islamic.

Thanks for posting both realities:

Sorry Jewish folk, the dems already normalized anti-semitism when they refused to even disavow her openly anti-semitic remarks. Refusing to address her repeated outbursts is tantamount to endorsing them, which I believe they do. And still I'd be willing to wager that democrats will heavily carry the jewish vote in 2020 again. So why not openly insult them, there's nothing to lose in telling the truth about hating jews if you're a democrat.

Anyway blaming a magazine now is silly, there is a whole political party that

Omar and Tlaib have actually exposed the rampant anti-Semitism on the Left as much as caused it.

Now that there are few people alive who actually remember WWII find it cool to hate on Jews again. There’s been a major shift in Europe which has worked its way to North America. The Democrats are chock full of it. Jew-hating is not just for skinheads and Neo-Nazis anymore. It is rampant in the DNC.

My pastor has been doing a study of the end times and he says that since the creation of a nation-state of Israel, that God has been in the process of returning all the Jews back to the homeland to fulfill prophecy. It’s possible that the flood of Muslim immigrants and the new wave of anti-Semitism in the West is part of His plan to push Jews into returning to the relative safety of the homeland as a prelude to Armageddon.

The Media myrmidons typical support. Omar uses bigoted terms in her speech.

Somalia is one of the worst, if not THE worst, sh!thole countries on the planet. This spawn of the sh!thole is proof. She is no more American than the child molester she worships. She’s a perfect democrat.
