Van Krikorian, the cochair of the Armenian Assembly of America, told Axios that Omar's "votes and actions ... do not represent the best of American or Muslim values."
He added, "Innocent people were and are being slaughtered, and there is a universal need to defend the victims of genocide and ethnic cleansing, not to stand with or defer to the murderers."

How about Turkey invading Syria after US withdrew troops? Do you think they should have received a rebuke for that?


Yeah?

Then that should make for 2 errors that Omar has committed.

Did you know that she personally met with Ergodan? Receives money from an Erdogan-ally lobbyist? Etc.

Are those not considered "mistakes/errors" to you?

I don't get why peeps even like Omar. All I see her do is have stupid opinions. Where even near the entirety of her own party say she has the wrong take. All. The. Time.
