In defending the repeated anti-Israel, anti-Semitic things freshman Rep. Ilhan Omar, D-Minn., keeps blurting out, Rep. James Clyburn, D-S.C., touched on something no one is bothering to ask: Why does Omar hold these views about Jews?

Omar has accused Israel, which is Jewish, of having “hypnotized the world.” She keeps talking about Jews and their money. Her sympathies with Iran, a U.S. adversary and a hostile state to Israel, are well documented.
