Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., and Rep. Rashida Tlaib, D-Mich., have both jumped to the defense of their under fire fellow freshman Democrat Ilhan Omar, saying Thursday her comment in reference to 9/11 has been wildly taken out of context.
Omar, D-Minn., is facing backlash after a speech at a Muslim rights group’s event in which she described the September 11, 2001, terror attacks as “some people did something”.
Tlaib, when asked by MSNBC if Omar should have rethought her words, said that she had been taken out of context.
“They do that all the time, especially women of color, they take our words out of context because they’re afraid because we speak truth, we speak truth to power,” Tlaib said.
“My sister Ilhan Omar, what she was talking about, was uplifting people by supporting their civil liberties and civil rights. She has always, always condemned any strategy, especially of a person directly impacted by being a refugee herself.
“The fact that people are taking those words out of context and endangering the life of Rep. Omar is immoral, it’s wrong and it needs to be called out by many colleagues in saying they need to stop, stop targeting her this way. It's absolutely putting her life in danger.”
Ocasio-Cortez went the way of Twitter, condemning the Post's cover as "horrifying" and "hateful"
The cover was hateful. The 3,000 dead were some people doing something
Like Hondo, she is a fucking liar who loves to claim she was taken out of "context" when she was quoted word for word. The last time she tried to use the "taken out of context" dodge was when she bad mouthed Obama and the reporter had her recorded saying exactly what they had claimed she had said.
In 2019, some low level dem staffer can create Cleetus Redneck on twitter and send death threats to a lib representative. Saying "life is in danger" shit is just asinine. If you are in the spotlight, some nutjob is going to want you dead somewhere, whether youre Trump or Scalise or MLK or JFK.
Fear mongering is the geateat asset the left has besides "free shit", and lemmings lap up every drop...unless it's Trump being rushed on stage by a guy or Scalise getting fucking shot. Then it's just some people doing something.
Taqiyya: Deception and Lying in Islam https://www.thereligionofpeace.com/pages/quran/taqiyya.aspx They take seriously the part of Sharia that says "it is permissible to lie if attaining the goal is permissible and obligatory to lie if the goal is obligatory". The goal being the ascendency of Islam (and Sharia itself) on the American landscape.

Minimizing terror uplifts people
