Rep. Ilhan Omar’s father was a “feared” colonel in the Somali National Army (SNA), far from the “educator” he was presented to Americans as, a veteran who served in his regiment claimed to The Post. Nur Omar Mohamed has been accused of hiding his military past from US authorities when he arrived and claimed asylum with his family in 1995 — which could have disqualified him from claiming refugee status. A retired military officer still living in Somalia has spoken out for the first time to shed light on the “career soldier” who was a trusted operator in dictator Siad...

Feds building case to deport Ilhan Omar as new details emerge about DC home raid Rep. Ilhan Omar and her husband were at their Washington home Monday morning when federal agents executed a search warrant, taking the Minnesota Democrat’s cellphone, notebooks, personal computers and her passport, according to a new report. The “Squad” member is the target of separate federal investigations, The Post confirmed Wednesday, with prosecutors in Minnesota probing potential immigration fraud, while the office of DC US Attorney Jeanine Pirro is pursuing an inquiry into the finances of Omar and her husband, Tim Mynett. The Wall Street Journal,...

The children of bloodthirsty Somali dictator Siad Barre, whose rule left as many as 200,000 people dead, are quietly living in the US — alongside victims of his regime. The Post located the despot’s “right-hand man” son Ayanle and daughter Deka Mohamed Siad, in Columbus, Ohio, where they lead unassuming suburban lives. However, among the wider Somali community, their presence is a painful reminder of the regime and some are calling for US authorities to investigate. “Siad Barre and his men committed so many war crimes so I was shocked to see his son [Ayanle] in the mosque enjoying his...

In this new video, Victor Davis Hanson dismantles New York City Mayor Mamdani’s divisive Fourth of July speech, exposing the glaring hypocrisy of a multi-millionaire bicoastal elite lecturing the working class on systemic exclusion. Hanson pulls back the curtain on how his successes completely undermine his tribalist narrative. Don’t miss it. Victor, let's take the most controversial one that's gotten some attention, though I don't know how widespread this is, and this is New York City Mayor Mandami's prepared remarks for the 4th of July. And here, if I just bear with me, here's what he said. Um -- I'm...

"Iran and Cuba, in cooperation with each other, can bring America to its knees. The U.S. regime is very weak, and we are witnessing this weakness from close up."

Israel has taken the controversial decision to recognise the breakaway state of Somaliland as an independent nation, sparking condemnation from many other countries. China is the latest to condemn the decision, with its foreign ministry spokesperson Lin Jian telling reporters: "No country should encourage or support other countries' internal separatist forces for its own selfish interests." China outlined its position ahead of the UN Security Council holding an emergency session to discuss Israel's decision. Israel on Friday became the first country in the world to acknowledge Somaliland as a standalone republic, more than 30 years after the region declared independence...

It is no longer the 19th century, and so British recognition of a Palestinian state, let alone that of Canada and Australia, means absolutely nothing. Contrary to arguments that Israel “occupies” Gaza, the would-be state has never been a stand-alone entity. Control over disputed territories passed from the Ottomans to the British to the Jordanians and Egyptians. It is telling that neither Jordan nor Egypt recognized the West Bank and Gaza as a Palestinian state. Most Palestinians came from outside the region, as early 20th-century censuses show. If Canberra, Ottawa, and London — the Axis of Pandering — wish to...

Staff. July 25, 2025 Ilhan Omar’s Father and the Isaaq Genocide: The Truth Revealed. Between 1987 and 1989, the Somali military in which Colonel Nur Omar Mohamed, Ilhan Omar’s father, served as a senior officer executed a brutal and systematic campaign of genocide targeting the Isaaq people of the modern day Republic of Somaliland. This dark chapter in Africa’s history, which was known as the Isaaq Genocide, was a merciless military campaign that resulted in the killing of over 200,000 Isaaq civilians. It also involved widespread forced displacement, scorched‑earth destruction of the second and third largest cities (Hargeisa and Burao),...

MOGADISHU, Somalia - A fundamentalist Muslim who is listed by the U.S. State Department as a suspected al-Qaida collaborator was named Saturday as the new leader of an Islamic militia that has seized control of Somalia's capital. The militia, which changed its name Saturday from the Islamic Courts Union to the Conservative Council of Islamic Courts, said in a statement it had appointed Sheikh Hassan Dahir Aweys as its new leader. The Bush administration says Aweys was an associate of Osama bin Laden in the early 1990s. The Islamic militia seized control of the capital Mogadishu and much of southern...
