Anti-Zionist-not-antisemitic congresswoman Ilhan Omar has retweeted the following:
Given her well-known disdain for AIPAC and her accusation that AIPAC pays off politicians to be pro-Israel, one can surmise that her reason for retweeting this is one or more of the following:
- Haha, you all had it coming (Divine punishment?)
- To spread more distrust and hatred towards AIPAC and AIPAC attendees
- The part about 2/3rds of Congress being there, to reinforce her accusation about AIPAC buying support for Israel
I think we can all agree it was not to wish any of those affected a speedy and full recovery.
Sure, coronavirus is a huge concern and is spreading rapidly. But so is antisemitism – and Ilhan Omar is one of the main carriers.
