Minnesota Rep. Ilhan Omar’s daughter, Isra Hirsi, revealed Thursday that she has been suspended from Barnard College over her involvement in disruptive anti-Israel protests on Columbia University’s Morningside campus at which scores of demonstrators were arrested.

“I just received notice that I am 1 of 3 students suspended for standing in solidarity with Palestinians facing a genocide,” the 21-year-old wrote on X.

“I’m an organizer with CU Apartheid Divest @ColumbiaSJP, in my 3 years at @BarnardCollege I have never been reprimanded or received any disciplinary warnings,” she added.

Hirsi was one of more than 100 protesters who were hauled away in cuffs by the NYPD Thursday afternoon after they erected a tent city on the campus of the $90,000-per-year Ivy League school.

By late afternoon Thursday the protests had dispersed, and cleaning crews were brought in to disassemble and remove dozens of tents that littered the campus.

As the daughter of a controversial and outspoken congresswoman, whose own eyebrow-raising statements have led to accusations of being anti-American and anti-Semitic, Hirsi has spent much of her life attending demonstrations.

She attended her first protest at age six, according to Vice. In 2015, at 12, Hirsi joined her family at a Black Lives Matter protest that forced Mall of America to shut down and required over 200 police officers, including 50 riot cops to restore order.

On Thursday, Hirsi and the two other students – identified as Maryam Iqbal and Soph Dinu — received notice of their suspension from Barnard Dean, Leslie Grinage, the anti-Israel student group Apartheid Divest said in a statement.

Muslim man who made threats in an Anderlecht hospital

will not ultimately be interned 

Translated from “L’homme ayant proféré des menaces dans un hôpital d’Anderlecht ne sera finalement pas interné,” 

Belga News Agency, 

November 19, 2022

The man who made threats Friday at the Saint-Anne Saint-Rémi hospital in Anderlecht will not ultimately be forcibly interned in a closed psychiatric establishment, reports the Brussels prosecutor’s office on Saturday evening...

The man, Hamza, 24, presented himself armed with a knife on Friday morning at the emergency department of the Brussels hospital. He shouted “Allahu Akbar” (“God is the greatest”), then declared that he was going to die but that he would come back to “kill everyone,” according to witnesses.

Gives a new meaning to the word 'ghosting'!

The individual then left without causing any casualties. However, the police took the threat very seriously and immediately organized a manhunt. The Brussels public prosecutor’s office had been informed, as well as all the other police zones in the capital and all the hospitals in the Brussels region. The police in his town of residence, Martelange, in the province of Luxembourg, had also been notified.

Friday evening, the man could finally be arrested in Saint-Josse-ten-Noode. According to the police, this arrest took place without problems.

Of course, every devout Muslim is probably insane, according to Syrian psychiatrist Dr Wafa Sultan. See Islamic Insanity on the sidebar of my other blog.

Kevin McCarthy to pull Ilhan Omar from Foreign Affairs

committee over antisemitism

"We watch antisemitism grow, not just on our campuses, but we watched it grow in the halls of Congress. I promised you last year that as speaker she will no longer be on Foreign Affairs, and I’m keeping that promise."

House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) said Saturday that when he becomes the speaker of the House of Representatives in January he plans to remove “Squad” member Rep. Ilhan Omar, (D-MN), from the House Foreign Affairs Committee due to her "antisemitic" comments. 

When the Republicans take the majority in the House next year, McCarthy will likely become the next speaker, pending a vote for the position on Jan. 3.

Speaking at the Republican Jewish Coalition’s 2022 leadership meeting in Las Vegas McCarthy pledged to the audience "We watch antisemitism grow, not just on our campuses, but we watched it grow in the halls of Congress. I promised you last year that as speaker she will no longer be on Foreign Affairs, and I’m keeping that promise."

The room erupted in cheers in response. 

Since she was elected to Congress in 2018, Omar has had a history of making many comments against Jews and Israel and using antisemitic tropes. After being elected to Congress, she submitted a resolution to the House comparing boycotting the Jewish state of Israel to boycotting the Nazis.

In February 2021, 1,500 rabbis called on Congress to rescind the appointment of Rep. Ilhan Omar, (D-MN), to the position of vice chair of the House foreign affairs subcommittee based on her past anti-Semitic statements and behavior.

With her history, how did she get to be Vice-Chair of the committee? Democrats must like antisemites.

Omar has an extensive history of using anti-Semitic statements and tropes as well as promoting conspiracy theories about Jews. In a now-deleted tweet Omar wrote "Israel has hypnotized the world, may Allah awaken the people and help them see the evil doings of Israel. #Gaza#Palestine#Israel"

In another now-deleted tweet, Omar said Jews were buying political support tweeting, "It's all about the Benjamins baby."

According to The Daily Wire, in an interview, Omar suggested: "Israel should not be allowed to exist as a Jewish state, Israel is not a democracy, and compared Israel to Iran — which is the world’s leading state sponsor of terrorism."

Not to mention murderer of women.

Omar also embraced the anti-Semitic heads of the Woman’s March which included Linda Sarsour.

In 2021, several House Republicans began working to remove Omar (D-MN), from her committee assignments in response to Democrats’ removal of Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA), from her committee assignments in the wake of revelations of her past anti-Semitic comments and posting of conspiracy theories.

McCarthy condemned remarks made by Greene last year including when she said, "Vaccinated employees get a vaccination logo just like the Nazis forced Jewish people to wear a gold star," which many viewed as minimizing the Holocaust. 

Democrats removed Greene from her committee assignments over the comments. 

According to Fox News, McCarthy promised Greene he would reinstate her committee assignments when he's the speaker and Greene has stated that she plans to vote for him. 

The Dems were right to remove Marjorie Greene but wrong to promote Omar. McCarthy would be right to remove Omar from her post, but wrong to put Greene back to her committee assignments. Is it possible for the Speaker to actually do the right thing instead of the political thing?
