An Open Letter: We are Jews Who Stand with Representative Ilhan Omar

As Jews with a long tradition of social justice and anti-racism, AIPAC does not represent us. #WeStandWithIlhan

We are Jews who stand with Representative Ilhan Omar. She has been falsely accused of anti-Semitism since tweeting that GOP threats against her and Representative Rashida Tlaib for criticizing Israel were “all about the Benjamins baby.” When asked to clarify who is paying members of Congress “to be pro-Israel,” Omar replied, “AIPAC!”

There is absolutely nothing anti-Semitic about calling out the noxious role of AIPAC (the American Israel Public Affairs Committee), which spends millions each year to buy U.S. political support for Israeli aggression and militarism against the Palestinian people. As the NYC chapter of Jewish Voice for Peace summed up:

Accurately describing how the Israel lobby works in this country is not anti-Semitic. The never-ending smear campaign against Ilhan Omar is racism and Islamophobia in action.”

There is no denying that money rules U.S. politics, and that powerful lobbies from the NRA to the fossil fuel lobby to AIPAC play destructive, anti-democratic roles in our political system, wielding money for legislative influence. The pro-Israel lobby has played an outsized role in producing nearly unanimous congressional support for Israel.



It has organized a national campaign to suppress Palestinian activism on campuses, made the Israel Anti-Boycott Act a legislative priority, and for decades has boasted about their power to make or break political careers. To point out this reality is not anti-Semitic.

Genuine anti-Semitism and the growth of white supremacy are indeed growing concerns in Donald Trump’s America. Omar and Tlaib, the first two Muslim congresswomen in this country’s history, are not part of this ugly growth of white supremacy.

Instead, they are part of movements which seek to confront it. For that, and for their courageous support of the Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions (BDS) campaign, they are being smeared by a racist and Islamophobic chorus, including the House Democratic leadership itself.

As long as the Israeli state continues to militarily besiege, economically choke, and incessantly dispossess the Palestinian people, and as long as it does so with the full backing of the United States government, we need to speak out against these crimes.

We thank Ilhan Omar for having the bravery to shake up the congressional taboo against criticizing Israel. As Jews with a long tradition of social justice and anti-racism, AIPAC does not represent us. #WeStandWithIlhan

  1. She is just a beauty. My personal opinion is: Netanyahu is scared to death that Americans will discover how beautiful Arab Woman and Children are and quit their genocide against them. The UN gave out a dismal report yesterday on the genocide of Syrian Woman and Children due to US/Israeli bombings.
    Not even mentioned on MSM.
    Meanwhile the IDF and “Squatters/Settlers” continue their “Nazi/ General Model scorched earth policy” in Palestine: Destroying Olive Groves, Shooting Women and Children,Poisoning water and crops. Genocide.
    Again no mention on the MSM.

    • Oh I said “Arab Women and Children: Addendum to that:
      About 35% of Palestinians are Christian.
      About 40% of Syrians are Christians.
      Reference: “Syria: The Home That Was My Country” by Alia Malek.
      Next time an Evangelical tells you “There is a war on Christians” reply:
      “Yes there is and you are supporting it when you send money to Israel.”

    • “goodANDDevil”:

      I used to accept the conventional “wisdom” about David Duke — until I went to his website and saw what he actually says.

      I don’t agree with him about everything, I’m not even religious. But I can’t think of anyone (alive today) who’s been more unfairly targeted by Israel lobby war criminals.
