NOT ONLY is Minnesota Congressmuslim, Ilhan Omar, a virulent antisemite, she petitioned a US judge for compassion for 3 Somali Muslims convicted in an ISIS terror recruitment case
by BareNakedIslam
Convicted in what is still considered the nation’s largest probe of ISIS (Islamic State) terror recruitment, Mohamed Abdihamid Farah, Abdirahman Yasin Daud and Guled Ali Omar were the only three of nine defendants in the case to stand trial. Ilhan Omar’s request wasn’t based on their innocence, but on her perception that it wasn’t really their fault, it was their youth and their environment.

TheLid In her letter to the judge, the future Minnesota US Congresswoman Ilhan Omar wrote:

"As you undoubtedly deliberate with great caution the sentencing of nine recently convicted Somali-American men, I bring to your attention the ramifications of sentencing young men who made a consequential mistake to decades in federal prison. Incarcerating 20-year-old men for 30 or 40 years is essentially a life sentence. … Such punitive measures not only lack efficacy, they inevitably create an environment in which extremism can flourish, aligning with the presupposition of terrorist recruitment…"

Despite her plea, a federal appeals court has upheld lengthy prison sentences for three Twin Cities Somali Muslim men who were convicted in 2016 of plotting to join the Islamic State group to fight in Syria and k**l on behalf of the terrorist group. The 8th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals on Friday rejected challenges by Guled Omar, Abdirahman Daud and Mohamed Farah, who had sought to have their convictions overturned.
A three-judge panel wrote that the evidence against the three was overwhelming. U.S. District Judge Michael Davis sentenced Omar, who at one time was the group’s leader, to 35 years in prison. Farah and Daud each got 30 years.

This woman is a disgrace. Minnesota should be kicked out of the union. (After I go on a fishing trip there this summer).

How does any of this have anything to do with antisemitism?

In a small city in WA state gangs started moving in from larger cities and one night a 20 year old drove down main street and fired a gun out the window . He didn't hit anyone but the judge gave him 93 years and let me tell you that sent a message .
Gang activity went way down the kid appealed the case and lost!
So when he's 113 years old he will be free.

He should appeal it to the next higher court which will overturn his sentence. (It is the 9th Circuit after all) I am very conservative and strict about fitting the punishment to the crime but 93 years is just insane and does not fit any sentencing guidelines that I know of. If he had actually been shooting at a person, even if he hit that person, it would be attempted murder at most which is 20 yrs. He should have been charged with reckless endangerment or discharging a firearm in the city limits etc. but I would love to know what charge brought about a 93 yr sentence?
