Rep. Ilhan Omar slammed President Trump’s “hateful policies,” which she believes are fomenting hatred and division in the United States after the president ordered the killings of Iranian Gen. Qassem Soleimani and Iraqi militia leader Abu Mahdi al Muhandis last week.

“When the United States enters conflicts with Muslim-majority countries, it destabilizes nations and infringes upon human rights,” tweeted the Minnesota Democrat. “It also riles up Islamophobes and racists at home.”
