Treachery at Home As Biden Tours Middle East
Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN) wants to start up a new “Office of Global Criminal Justice” within the U.S. State Department to address atrocities and war crimes around the world. But Omar’s true purpose is clear: She wants to build institutions that can be used like cudgels to bludgeon Israel—a nation Omar accuses of “crimes against humanity.”
As an ardent and outspoken Israel hater, it is no surprise that Omar has introduced resolutions in Congress to make the U.S. a full member of the International Criminal Court—a tribunal that has become one of the Palestinian Authority’s favorite forums for lodging false accusations against Israel.
Infamous for smearing Israel for its “evil doings,” “ethnic cleansing,” “crimes against humanity” and “unthinkable atrocities,” Omar now wants to enlist the International Criminal Court against America’s close friend and ally.
Omar’s H.Res.1058 calls on the U.S. to “become a full member of the International Criminal Court”—a notoriously anti-Israel body now prosecuting the Jewish state for alleged “war crimes.” And that’s not all. Omar has also introduced HR 7522, a measure to form a new Office of Global Criminal Justice within the State Department.
Both measures are naked attempts to enhance or create institutional cudgels with which the enemies of Israel—Omar included—can decimate the Jewish state on the international stage.

Despite this demonization, wonderful things are happening inside Israel—a nation that God has returned to the land He gave them, just as He said:
I will restore the fortunes of my people Israel, and they shall rebuild the ruined cities and inhabit them; ... I will plant them on their land, and they shall never again be uprooted out of the land that I have given them (Amos 9:14-15).
Israel is now a country of 9.5 million people, a flourishing high-tech nation, the lone Middle East democracy and is forging ties of friendship with Arab states.
But Israel has many enemies. And one of the most poisonous is Ilhan Omar—who brands Israel an “apartheid” state and a “human rights abuser.”
Omar and fellow “Squad” members like Rashida Tlaib and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez are fierce opponents of Israel. They use their platform in Congress to throw rhetorical firebombs and to legitimize and empower institutions like the ICC to attack the Jewish state. Don’t let them.
