Washington, DC (AP) — After thousands of mourners marched in a Baghdad funeral procession for Iran’s top general and Iraqi militant leaders killed in a U.S. airstrike, Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN) suggested retaliation against whatever Islamic sect she disagrees with.
“America is the Great Satan, but Muslims have been retaliating against other Muslims for at least 1,388 years,” Omar said. “Funerals are often our prime targets, so I don’t understand why the dictator Trump didn’t bomb the funeral in Baghdad.”
Omar declined to state which sect of Islam she belongs to, leaving Sunnis to call for attacks on Shiites, and Shiites to call for attacks on Sunnis.
