Ilhan Omar Tries to Quell Furor Over Tweet on U.S., Israel Bloomberg 59 mins ago © Photographer: Drew Angerer/Getty Images Ilhan Omar GETTY sub (Bloomberg) Representative Ilhan Omar tried to head off a growing furor over a tweet suggesting she equated the U.S. and Israel with the Taliban and Hamas that drew condemnation from some Democrats as well as Republicans. A dozen of Omar’s fellow House Democrats denounced Monday’s tweet in which she said there were “unthinkable atrocities committed by the U.S., Hamas, Israel, Afghanistan, and the Taliban.” Representative Bradley Schneider of Illinois and 11 other Democrats called the statement “as offensive as it is misguided,” and said such “false equivalencies give cover to terrorist groups.”
