Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.) is “out of her mind” for accusing Israel of committing “an act of terrorism” by carrying out airstrikes against Hamas in the Gaza Strip, Sen. Marco Rubio (R-Fla.) said Wednesday.
The airstrikes came after Hamas and other Islamic terror groups launched hundreds of rockets into Israel, targeting cities including Jerusalem and Tel Aviv.
“Israeli air strikes killing civilians in Gaza is an act of terrorism. Palestinians deserve protection. Unlike Israel, missile defense programs, such as Iron Dome, don’t exist to protect Palestinian civilians. It’s unconscionable to not condemn these attacks on the week of Eid,” Omar tweeted Monday .
“This is a plan, OK? They do this knowing there’s going to be a response, knowing that innocents are going to be killed and civilians are going to be killed. They know it’s going to happen, and they deliberately want it to happen so they can get tweets like that and people around the world to take up their cause.”
On Wednesday, Israeli forces killed as many as 10 senior Hamas military figures and toppled a pair of high-rise towers housing Hamas facilities. Those offensives followed a night of rioting in the city of Lod, approximately 10 miles southeast of Tel Aviv, in which several vehicles and at least one synagogue were set ablaze.
“Islamic Jihad and Hamas, they have no problem putting the operation sites, the missile site, right next to a nursery or a hospital, or a residential building” Rubio said. “And so, at the end, yeah, I don’t care what happened on the ground in Jerusalem. The response cannot be 1,000 rockets fired into civilian areas.”

reason and intellect isn’t a muslim thug thing
How dare you fight back during a Mooselimb holy day.
She was out of her mind way before now.
She seems to be saying it’s ok to shoot missiles at Israel because they have Iron Dome.
It’s a ludicrous comment.
She is rabidly anti-Semitic.
Democrats are savages.
She should have been locked up or deported long ago. That she’s a sitting member of congress is a national disgrace.
So, since Israel has a missile/rocket defense system, it's perfectly OK to fire missiles and rockets at their population. I guess Ilhan Omar also believes that it's perfectly OK to shoot at cops, because they are wearing body armor, but the cops can't shoot back because the criminals don't have body armor.
western societies are importing or permitting or enabling mass influxes of people, some who are obvious or likely enemies of western society in general and the countries that host them in particular. we are witnessing, and experiencing, societal, national suicide
Muslims and Democrats are winning the propaganda war against Israel. Satan must be very happy
I am amazed at how many of my leftie friends think that way, even my well-educated Jewish friends.
Of course the MSM will pester President Biden with demands that he state whether he supports congresswoman Omar’s position.
>> Rubio: “out of her mind”
Truly a relief to have such men of courage fighting for what’s right — the statesmanship, the unambiguous fortitude, the conviction of conquest.
It is appalling to realize that our country rescued this (BLEEP) and her family from a refugee camp in Kenya, where they had fled to from Somalia. And brought this (BLEEP) here.
And THIS is her “thank you.”
Yeah, come on brainwashed leftist Americans, we need lots more just like her.
Ilhan Omar is a Muslim and antisemitic. What would Rubio expect her otherwise to say?
If I have a problem with Israel it’s that they don’t blast these Minions of Mad Moe back to hell.
Her family only fled when they were the murderous Marxists that had to flee the country for that reason. Her father worked for the bad guys.
she’s Il
Just deport her and get it over with.
She was elected illegally anyway even after she committed crimes here.
Plus she doesn’t meet the qualifications to hold ANY office here.
She was NEVER in her right mind. Her father was a Somali Marxist government official in the Barre’ dictatorship (as I recall) and flee justice when the dictator was killed as a result of fighting in a civil war.
Omar, like Tlaib and AOC, are the REAL ‘domestic terrorists-supporting threats’ to America.
