"In her remarks, she has branded every Muslim in America as an antisemite, and this is absolutely unacceptable and un-Islamic," Ahmed said.Some of the interview focused on the comments Ilhan Omar made about AIPAC, in which she hinted that American politicians are paid off or bribed for their support of Israel. Ahmed further explained that there is an "incredible bias that is disturbing," and that Omar fails to mention that Muslim nations such as Saudi Arabia and Qatar spend "tens of millions of dollars more on lobbying than AIPAC does" to push their agenda within the US government each year.
Ahmed said she believed that Omar should be ejected from the House of Foreign Affairs Committee immediately because anything that the Minnesota Representative now proposes can be "interpreted through the lens of antisemitism.""Also very concerned, I am, that she is affiliated with the Boycott, Divestment and Sanction movement, which is legitimizing and normalizing antisemitism. It's a movement that calls for the eradication of the State of Israel, which is unacceptable. It's disguised as a human rights movement, but it's actually antisemitism," Ahmed explained.
Ahmed added that this is the new form of antisemitism, and that this bias is infecting the Islamic community. She quoted a Washington Post op-ed, which claimed that antisemitism is carried through Islam whether Muslims like it or not. Ahmed said that this is anti-ethical to true Islamic beliefs and that American Muslims must reject this notion. …. continued ...

And with that, the tide should be turning.
But will it?
I would suggest to Dr Ahmad to exercise hers and the Committee's Authority
to EXPEL the 'Yasmin of US' oracle from their midst and get on with the job of
repairing American Dream.
Muslims of America will be grateful.
Awaken their voices.
Australia has for some time now enjoyed YAM's re-location to Britain.
Though plenty of mirth is still steered her way.
How can we forget????
