Muslim immigrant running to unseat Ilhan Omar, speaks out from Israel: 'We are not like her'
A Muslim immigrant and Minnesota Republican congressional candidate joined "Fox & Friends" to call out far-left Democrats for their failure to stand with Israel against Hamas terrorists.
"I'm telling you, Hamas is a terrorist group and whoever supports these terrorists don't belong to the United States of America, the land of the free," said Dalia al-Aqidi, who is running to unseat Rep. Ilhan Omar, D-Minn., whom she called the "No. 1 antisemitic lawmaker in the United States."
"When they call for a free Palestine and call ‘from the river to the sea,’ this is a call for a genocide. Black Lives Matter and all these far-left progressives have no clue what they're chanting about."
Al-Aqidi, speaking from Israel, said she traveled there three days ago to "show my support and solidarity with the Jewish people," declaring that the people of Minneapolis – where Omar was raised – support Israel.
"We are not like her (Omar). We support the Jewish people and we are fighting the same fight," she told host Ainsley Earhardt, explaining that Omar's district has become "ground zero for antisemitism" under her leadership.
During her time in Israel, al-Aqidi said she has seen firsthand the atrocities of Hamas terrorists
"I've seen the houses, the burnt houses. You can smell it. It's a place of destruction. And whoever says that Hamas, that these people are freedom fighters. No, freedom fighters don't do that."
Al-Aqidi said the reports were accurate about the atrocities committed by Hamas against women, children and the elderly.
"Freedom fighters don't hunt kids, don't hurt women and the elderly from house to house and room to room. I've seen it. I bear witness to what happened in the kibbutz. So that's why I'm here to say, no, this is not fake news."
"These people with a Islamist radical Islamist ideology, they don't care about their lives, what they care about is death," she said.....
=======================
She has gone to Israel and has seen the brutality of Hamas. I sincerely hope this isn't who American Muslims are. I think she is right but the Squad gives me doubt.
