Omar Snaps at 'Appalling Question' Asking Her to Condemn Female Genital Mutilation
I've never heard her denounce it, and I still haven't.
She avoided the topic by showing her animosity that she's even been asked
And why does she always include the whole muslim community, when she's asked about her personal stance on a subject?
And why is Al-Qaeda, and Hamas always on her lips?
Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-Ill.) snapped at a progressive Muslim who asked her at a conference on Tuesday if she could make a public statement condemning female genital mutilation, calling the question "appalling" and "very frustrating."
"Should I make a schedule, like, does this need to be on repeat every 5 minutes? Should I be like, so, today I forgot to condemn Al-Qaeda, so here's the Al-Qaeda one. Today I forgot to condemn FGM so here it goes. Today I forgot to condemn Hamas so here it goes. You know, I mean, it is a very frustrating question that comes up. You can look up my record. I've voted for bills doing exactly what you are asking me to do. I've put out statements upon statements," Omar said at the Muslim Caucus Education Collective's 2019 Conference.

As Hundreds of Missiles Rain Down on Israel, Facebook Still Hosts Pro-Hamas Content
Even as Facebook claims it is removing “extremist” personalities and content from its platform, pages expressing support for Hamas, a terrorist group that has killed civilians, remain fully active.
Facebook cited its policy on “dangerous individuals and organisations” which bans users from the platform who engage in the following behavior;
– Terrorist activity
– Organised hate
– Mass or serial murder
– Human trafficking
– Organised violence or criminal activity
However, Hamas, an Islamist fundamentalist organization whose members are currently firing hundreds of rockets into Israel which have caused numerous injuries and fatalities, still has numerous pages active on Facebook where users express support for the group.

Pro-Israel Language Removed From Democratic Party Platform
I think "We" as a country need to ask ourselves why these issues are worthy of either sides platform of presentation to the American people.
When did it go from being about America and the problems that "We" need to resolve, to being about every other foreign country and their brother?
Perhaps it's time (actually well past time) to begin focusing on the repeal of NAFTA and CAFTA, so that the United States can once more again build it's manufacturing base back to a sustainable size in which to support our country and it's "people" again. Our people need the jobs back that NAFTA and CAFTA took away.
When George Herbert Walker Bush formed the policy on what Bill Clinton would eventually signed, our Nation was one of hope and prosperity.Our children didn't worry about having employment opportunities, because "We" still had a manufacturing base.
Now there is no hope for them, because there is no sustainable employment in which to plan a future let alone a life upon.
The leaders of our Nation sold us out long ago, to fill their own pockets in their efforts to advance the "elite"

Several pro-Israel sections of the 2008 Democratic Party platform have been removed from the 2012 platform—on Jerusalem, Palestinian refugees, and Hamas. The new platform represents another shift by the Obama Democrats toward the Palestinian position on key issues in the peace process.
For Jerusalem, the new platform has been brought into line with the Obama administration’s policy of not recognizing Jerusalem as Israel’s capital and supporting its division. Jerusalem is unmentioned in the 2012 document, whereas the 2008 and 2004 Democratic Party platforms declared “Jerusalem is and will remain the capital of Israel…It should remain an undivided city accessible to people of all faiths.” The Obama administration’s refusal to recognize Jerusalem has been a point of significant controversy in recent months.
On the issue of Palestinian refugees, the new document has removed language from the 2004 and 2008 platforms specifying that Palestinian “refugees” should be settled in a future Palestinian state, not in Israel.
The 2004 platform:
