    You go!!! This demon was squirming in the hot seat!! Pride, Arrogance, Hubris, Hatred.

    Also maybe this below is part of Plan B or maybe not ( not sure of the quality of the source but the claim was also made on RT Espanol today

      I was disappointed when Omar went to water after the Zionazis and Sabbat Goyim of the Democrat hierarchy savaged her for telling the truth about the Jewish Lobby buying US politics. But here, in the face of Evil as dire as any German Nazi, she shows real grit. Abrams is a devil incarnate, and he had a suitable mate. His late wife, Rachel, on the occasion of the swap of Palestinians for Gilad Shalit, observed, nicely, that,
      ‘He’s free and he’s home in the bosom of his family and country. Celebrate, Israel, with all the joyous gratitude that fills your heart, as we all do along with you.
      Then round up his captors, the slaughtering, death-worshiping, innocent-butchering, child-sacrificing savages who dip their hands in blood and use women-those who aren’t strapping bombs to their own devil’s spawn and sending them out to meet their seventy-two virgins by taking the lives of the school-bus riding, heart drawing, Transformer doodling, homework-losing children of Others-and their offspring-those who haven’t already been pimped out by their mothers to the murder god-as shields, hiding behind their burkas and cradles like the unmanned animals they are, and throw them not into your prisons, where they can bide until they’re traded by the thousands for another child of Israel, but into the sea, to float there, food for sharks, stargazers, and whatever other oceanic carnivores God has put there for the purpose’.
      The sheer fulminating hatred and crude psychological projection are pretty typical of the most hate-crazed Zionazis, and what a suitable partner for Elliott she must have been.

    Abrams is a war criminal, just like all the Washington scum that came before and after him.

    Luckly they will have to answer for their crimes against humanity once their souls have departed from their bodies. Just like all of us will have to answer for our deeds.

      “The Charlie Rose Show” with investigative journalist Allan Nairn has been shared widely.
      In the video, Nairn says Abrams should be tried for war crimes.

      From the program Charlie Rose, Allan Nairn accuses guest Elliott Abrams of Crimes Against
      Humanity.

        New Attorney General William Barr is proud he helped Elliott Abrams get
        a pardon for Iran-Contra
        Kudos from colleagues are nice. An attorney general who already helped you
        cover up crimes in Latin America once is even better.

    Yeah, she ripped him a new one. Omar is also under fire for criticizing AIPAC. Wow, have we now got two US Congresspeople that are criticizing the MIC? I guess it’s better than zero.

    • Debs on February 15, 2019  ·  at 12:57 am EST/EDT

      When was it ever zero?

      -In 2012, I voted for Rep. Ron Paul for President
      -In 2008, I voted for Rep. Cynthia McKinney for President.
      -I recently saw that Rep. Walter Jones has recently passed away, so all of his good work needs a mention.
      -Rep. Barbara Lee cast the only vote against the Afghan War, and is still in the House.
      -By the time to the vote on the Iraq War, she wasn’t alone any more.
      -Obama was too scared to follow the Constitution and allow a vote on the Libya War. Obama was pressured to slightly obey the Constitution and was going to have a vote on the Syria War, but he had to pull the vote because of opposition and the fact that he was certain to lose.
      — Rep John Lewis, former aide to Dr. Martin Luther King, opposes wars.
      -Rep Tulsi Gabbord has regularly opposed and criticized the Syria invasion, and is running for President in 2020.
      — I’m rather certain that the above list is not complete, and that I’ve left names off of it.

      When was it ever zero?

      If brave people are going to stand up and buck the Empire, then the least we can do is to take notice.

      Interesting that they are both women, the guys always cave or get bought off

  4. Taras 77 on February 14, 2019  ·  at 9:18 pm EST/EDT

    I have noted a fair amount of defense for abrams in some of the blogs, with extensive supporting comments, prob organized by AIPAC, et al.

    Just an aside, also noted max boot jumping in on wapo, where else, with an article which goes over the top with hypocrisy and lies in defense of abrams.

    Then you have browder’s boy menendez going to senate floor accusing trump of being an agent for putin.

    One might ask as to why one would go there and it is a valid question but some of their coverage of sports themes is ok.

    Just saying-hard to find decent entertainment these days.

    • Internal Exile USA on February 15, 2019  ·  at 2:59 pm EST/EDT

      Zerohedge yesterday was pounced on by (perhaps) “Club ’82” within mere seconds (I assume) of posting this subject; donzens of the usual charming Zionist “arguments” comparing Omar with a monkey, insulting her as a muslim, woman, both together, as an unclean animal, (insert-sex-nastiness-whenever-possible), etc. On ZH for a few years running, on Chosen Subjects, one can watch the trolls show up for work as it were, as they take their morning stimulants, get comfortable in their gutter, and congratulate each other.

      Oh yes, I almost forgot, and defending the magnificence and honor of Elliot Abrams; a tell-tale sign of ideological (and real-world) origin.

      I personally wonder a little bit what happened to ZH, did they sell the farm to interests unknown or just get careless.

    Toward the end of her questioning of Abrams, he says that USA’s motive in Venezuela is to establish democracy to which she responds “No one is denying that.” That statement betrays her apparent militancy. She is dumb and weak

    • romar on February 15, 2019  ·  at 12:07 am EST/EDT

      How about ironic – rather than dumb? Like, “Yes, yes, we all know the mantra…”
      As for weakness, I am yet to meet a weak Somali – man or woman.
      But perhaps you’re upset she is upsetting the apple cart? Saying what no one in Washington ever says?…

      • Anton G. on February 17, 2019  ·  at 1:33 am EST/EDT

        Recently, Omar tweeted “No one is defending Maduro”. Where’s the irony? She is disgusting!

    • Katherine on February 15, 2019  ·  at 10:47 am EST/EDT

      “Toward the end of her questioning of Abrams, he says that USA’s motive in Venezuela is to establish democracy to which she responds “No one is denying that.” That statement betrays her apparent militancy. She is dumb and weak”

      I noticed this and was disappointed to hear her parrot that canard.
      It seemed to reduce her challenging Abrams to a purely personal level (attacking him personally),
      insted of seizing the moment—useing her five minutes—to wrap up her interrogation with a challenge to that
      piece of propaganda.
      All she would have had to say was:
      Overthrowing legally elected governments is NEVER democracy.
      Period.

      So, she kind of caved there—perhaps because she had not written a script to respond.
      She is young; hopes she learns quickly to think on her toes.

    No doubt Greg Hunter of Watchdog ‘fame’ will be a supporter of Abrams as well, since he supports everything Trump does no matter how idiotic the appointments and actions happen to be. Abrams could be the Grim Reaper incarnate but as long as he was part of Trump’s team it would get this dim-witted sycophant’s blessing.

    Cheers

      I love the fact that I don’t have any idea of what either of you are talking about.

      It just goes to prove that turning them all off works very nicely. Plus it hits them in their bank balances!

      There is lots of entertainment out there beyond America. I’ve had nice full and enjoyable days watching the Champions League games. And watching the English shoot themselves in the foot over Brexit has been the best comedy that I’ve seen in years!

    • Taras 77 on February 15, 2019  ·  at 12:26 pm EST/EDT

      Indeed remarkable in that people are defending this monster because either he is part of the trump team of psychopaths or because the attacker is a MOOOSlum-we are indeed a nation of sheep.

      Breitbart of all places has an article defending abrams and notes that her information came from Al Jazeera. It also quotes a right wing institute that the full details about the el mozote massacre did not come out until 1992 although it occurred in 1981 and abrams testified (lied) about it in 1982.

      Well, enough, I guess but when it comes to abrams, I am prepared still to argue that he is absolute evil, he dserves no defense despite what that idiot max boot says, and that he is part of the us govt making policy against a legimate govt-he is responding to mossad and cia directives.

    I wonder if this evil one has laced the biscuits that Bolton was waxing poetic over a la ‘Clockwork Orange’? :

    https://sputniknews.com/latam/201902131072390442-bolton-biscuits-for-venezuela/

    “vellocet (Russian for amphetamines), synthemesc (synthetic mescalines), drencrom (adrenochrome). For the ingredient drencrom, he uses the phrase (drink the milk) “with knives in it,” as it “would sharpen you up and make you ready for a bit of the old ultra-violence”. ”

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Korova_Milk_Bar

    Just the thing for civil riot and insurrection so loved by the likes of thuggish warmongers Bolton and Abrams.

    Does it get any more arrogant and inverted?

    “El Salvador has been a democracy to this day” according to Abrahams, What a lie! Murder and lier what else. El Salvador has been in chaos since then, practically a failed state. Where does the “mara salvatrucha” come from?

    • Tom Welsh on February 15, 2019  ·  at 9:48 am EST/EDT

      “El Salvador has been a democracy to this” only if you subscribe to Washington doublethink. Noam Chomsky explains:

      ‘[I]n a briefing for US ambassadors to Latin American countries in 1950, [George] Kennan observed that a major concern of US foreign policy must be “the protection of our [i.e. Latin America’s] raw materials”. We must therefore combat a dangerous heresy which, US intelligence reported, was spreading through Latin America: “the idea that the government has direct responsibility for the welfare of the people”.

      ‘US planners call that idea Communism, whatever the actual political views of the people advocating it. They can be church-based self-help groups or whatever, but if they support this heresy, they’re Communists’.

      In the US government’s lexicon, “democracy” means obedience to Washington – allowing the USA to plunder the country in question and impoverish its citizens.

      “Communism” or “ultra-nationalism” mean exactly the same in Washington: signs that a nation’s government is making attempts, however feeble, to stand up for its own national interests and those of its citizens.

    Will she some day raise the question of Saudi Arabia and it’s support and financing of ISIS ? If not, why not ?

  11. vot tak on February 15, 2019  ·  at 12:13 pm EST/EDT

    Good to see at least some of Omar’s recent actions covered here. RT has covered her quite well, both her important aipac revealing statements and abrams grilling. In fact, the importance of Omar’s recent actions dwarf Gabbard’s election posturing, especially her calling out aipac.

  12. Watcher on February 15, 2019  ·  at 5:59 pm EST/EDT

    Related information, providing background into Elliott Abrams’ bizarre idea as to democracy.

    “Rep. Ilhan Omar Went After Elliott Abrams for Lying to Congress. Then He Did It Again.”
    by Jon Schartz, The Intercept
    https://theintercept.com/2019/02/14/ilhan-omar-elliott-abrams-hearing/

    Abrams claimed that the 1984 election of Duarte, that El Salvador has been a democracy.

    Duarte had been on the CIA payroll. The USA pumped between $1 to $3 million dollars into his campaign. Note that these are 1990 dollars in an El Salvador where a dollar would buy a lot. The only opponent in the elections was the far right wing paramilitary leader who had just previously ordered the Assassination of Bishop Romero in the pulpit of his church. There were no candidates to the left of Duarte, as any who dared would have been highly likely to be assassinated.

    That’s Elliott Abrams idea of democracy. And the already proven liar to Congress lied again under oath to Congress in even pretending that these were free elections.

  13. GG on February 16, 2019  ·  at 10:25 am EST/EDT

    I admire Rep. Omar’s effort here, but the exchange would have been much more effective if Omar were more fluent in the English language. She begins by calling him “Mr. Adams”. She can’t pronounce the word “pardoned” says “thank you for your testimonies” and says “some of the troops bragged about raping a 12 year old girl before they killed them(sic).” The smile on Omar’s face when speaking of genocide and mass murder is also completely inappropriate here. She asked him about “uphold[ing] international(sic) and human rights,” as if there is such a concept as international rights. She looks like someone who barely comprehends the carefully scripted questions prepared for her.

    Even though I despise Elliott Abrams, Omar’s marginal reading aptitude and weak proficiency with the English language mean that Abrams dispensed with her effortlessly, even as Omar had to expend a great deal of effort and cognitive ability to read the questions that were written for her.

    • Trevor Hardy on February 18, 2019  ·  at 3:26 pm EST/EDT

      Actually, Abrams was squirming. Her very deficiencies, her bumbling manner worked to her advantage. Initially, Abrams had a look of bemused condescension but with abject horror it slowly dawned on him that she was scoring points. She’s the Lieutenant Columbo of politics, her maladroitness conceals her barracuda instincts.

    • Kemosabe on February 18, 2019  ·  at 3:35 pm EST/EDT

      she put an “s” on the “girl” raped to correct her mistake when she said “them”. you point out some valid if not impatient, criticisms. She would do well to go over her homework before the event, to avoid some of what you point out.
