Omar Backs Boycott of Israel, Compares It To Nazi Germany

Radical left-wing Democrat Ilhan Omar introduced a resolution this week aimed at enabling the boycott of Israel, while also comparing the stalwart American ally to Nazi Germany. As Fox News reports:

U.S. Rep. Ilhan Omar proposed a resolution this week supporting the right to boycott Israel, likening the boycott of the Jewish state to boycotts of Nazi Germany and the Soviet Union.

Omar’s resolution seeks to push back against U.S. laws banning the boycott of Israel and affirms the right of Americans to organize boycotts of foreign countries if they so wish.

While the resolution doesn’t explicitly name Israel or the pro-Palestinian Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions (BDS) movement, she told media outlets that the resolution concerns the Jewish state.

“We are introducing a resolution … to really speak about the American values that support and believe in our ability to exercise our First Amendment rights in regard to boycotting,” Omar told Al-Monitor.

The far-left BDS movement has been widely recognized as being anti-semitic, why then has Omar’s motion not been more vehemently condemned by her fellow Democrats?
