This Ilhan Omar is not only an anti American, anti capitalist, anti Israel congress critter herself, but she even goes on trips with groups that are the exact same. In December, before officially joining congress, Ilhan Omar decided to go on a trip with “Witness for Peace” to failing country Honduras that are sending all their rejects here. The group Omar traveled with to Honduras was quoted as as calling for the “eradication of Israel.”

Omar praised leftist activists who were creative in their work “dismantling patriarchy” in Honduras, and vowed to “continue their fight on American soil.”
“I went as part of a Witness for Peace Midwest delegation, I helped lead an all-female delegation to Honduras,” Omar said at a press conference in March 2018 in the Minnesota state House, where she introduced her legislation to end U.S. military aid to Honduras, a position shared by the radical group Code Pink.
Omar said she traveled with Witness for Peace for over two weeks, coinciding with the Honduras elections in the fall of 2017, which she called “illegal.”
The Trump administration recognized the election of Juan Orlando Hernández, an ally to the United States who sided with America at the United Nations by standing against an anti-Israel resolution that condemned the recognition of Jerusalem as Israel’s capital.
Omar has repeatedly made anti-Semitic remarks on social media, including calling the only democracy in the Middle East “evil,” and said Israel “hypnotized the world.”
Witness for Peace also has numerous members of its board that have expressed hostility towards Israel, including accusing Israel of inflicting “institutionalized racism that equates to modern day apartheid,” and another who was recognized as a “Gaza donor” who supported sanctions against Israel. Another board member has ties to a group founded by a Palestinian activist who called for the “eradication of Israel.”
