MY SAY: ILHAN IS A SYMPTOM OF A MAJOR EPIDEMIC

Oooh….defenders of the Democrat party have their knickers in a knot….what to do about Ilhan Omar and anti-Semitic tantrums of other members of Congress. Their scoldings and her apology are perfunctory. I suggest they look for the locus of this resurgence of the ancient hatred of Jews which has seeped into the corridors of power in America.

Listen to the sermons in mosques throughout the nation. Read the New York Times. Check out the academics who teach “Mid-East Studies” in all the Universities in every single state in America. Their lectures are defined by MESA (Middle East Studies Association) which toes the line of Edward Said to schools which receive serious funding from the Arab Emirates.

And to legitimate their bias, there are myriad Jewish groups of “social justice warriors” who focus their hatred on Israel.

It is easy to target Ilhan, but difficult and not comfy to confront the disease and its promulgators. I call it the silence of the ostriches….rsk
