Ilhan Omar still calls Somalia her country
American Thinker ^ | 07/24/2019 | Thomas Lifson

Posted on 07/24/2019 11:05:17 AM PDT by SeekAndFind

Does Ilhan Omar represent the Fifth Congressional District of Minnesota?  That's her official job.  But buried in the back of her mind, ready to spring out in unguarded or stressful moments, seems to be the notion that her real country is Somalia.

Streiff of Red State notes that there is a pattern of her speaking of Somalia, which she left at about age 8, as her country, not the nation from which she draws a substantial salary and whose constitution she is sworn to protect.

Chris Berg on Twitter spotted a Freudian slip that Omar quickly caught, when she returned to MSP Airport last week, to be greeted by 100 or so cheering supporters.  The fact that she corrected herself is significant, indicating that she realizes that she must present a false front to her ostensible constituents in Minnesota.

LISTEN CLOSELY to @IlhanMN freudian slip here when she got back to MSP last night.
So does she identify as an American or a Somalian?

And Streiff posts another example from 2015 in which, speaking to the "Revolution Somali Youth League," she called Somalia "our nation."

Ilhan Omar addressing the Revolution Somali Youth League in 2015:

You guys have the ability to impact where our nation is headed....

So, when President Trump tweeted about going back, perhaps he referred to the back of her mind.

“Natural born citizens are born here of two citizen parents.”

Parents don’t need to be NBC, then?

Some of these kids are NBC under those criteria, as are Omar’s kids.

Depends on when her husband got citizenship.
Her brusband never did.
He is still using a UK passport.

Not so common for those who arrive here when they are eight years old. 0mar has an unusual affinity for a country that she probably can barely remember. That suggests something more is going on with her than simply a fond memory of the place she came from.

Every South American I’ve ever known when he says, “ my country “ is referring to where he came from regardless how long they’ve been here.

Everything 0mar says about her roots is faked....she says these things to those who vote in her district and keep the revenue flowing by those outside the country supporting her.

Her family were elites in Somalia....she is well connected with muslim leadership here and abroad now.

OF course, makes sense.

“The universalism of Islam, in its all-embracing creed, is imposed on the believers as a continuous process of warfare, psychological and POLITICAL, if not strictly military. . . . The Jihad, accordingly, may be stated as a doctrine of a permanent state of war, not continuous fighting.”— Majid Khadduri

Jihadis have made tremendous gains around the world and in the U.S.A. since 911.

Yep, that is the “something more” that’s going on. She is an activist indoctrinated from birth. :)

Ms. Omar is a well coordinated plant by her unseen handlers.

Interesting that they can have pride of their homeland but if I have pride in the USA which is my county of birth I get called names and such.

Did she travel as a representative elect before she was 8? No, of course not.

I don’t know if you are really that obtuse or just looking for an argument.
Either way you can continue your nonsense without me.
