American Thinker-
Last week the House voted overwhelmingly (405-11) in favor of formally recognizing the Armenian Genocide, which was perpetrated by Ottoman Turks. Among those miniscule few to vote “present,” thereby abstaining from voting, was Minnesota Democrat Ilhan Omar. Her logic was expressed in a tweet:
A true acknowledgement of historical crimes against humanity must include both the heinous genocides of the 20th century, along with earlier mass slaughters like the transatlantic slave trade and Native American genocide, which took the lives of hundreds of millions of indigenous people in this country.
Such a statement is disingenuous on several levels. For starters, since when did resolutions that deal with specific historical events — in this case, the Armenian Genocide — need to chronicle “earlier mass slaughters”?
One also wonders if the resolution was about, say, condemning the transatlantic slave trade or treatment of Native Americans — or anything else that depicts Americans negatively — would Omar have then abstained, arguing that a “true acknowledgement of historical crimes against humanity must include” the Armenian Genocide? read more
“… took the lives of hundreds of millions of indigenous people in this country.”
Really?
Sources, please.
Not only were there NOT “hundreds of millions” of “indigenous” people there was NO genocide. Nor was the trans-Atlantic slave trade (a product of moslem expansion) genocidal, in and of, itself.
So … Fuck Off, Eat Shit, and Die!

Because Putin doesn’t mak’em math.
“Hello Genocide. We recognize you.”
What an absolutely worthless thing for a national governing body to bother doing.
She should be declared a domestic enemy, and ejected from this country!
Lowell, it’s better than proclamations about baseball or apple pie.
Boy how our wish my generation had the brass to tar’n’feather just one of these weasels.
Something much more serious was the banning of “memes,” and therefore free speech.
Ilhan and everybody else who does not embrace the melting pot culture of America totally must be deported. “A house divided cannot stand.”
Maybe someone should point out to this room-temperature IQ Islamozoid all the States and Counties named out of respect and tribute to Native American Indian lore!
I’d be willing to bet good money she hasn’t one single clue about any of that!
Catch a plane plane to Greece and spew that bile. Leftist MP Christos Giannoulis would welcome Omar with a hug. He’s flouncing over a planned bbq and alcohol party outside one of the ObamHillMerkSoros refugee camps.
