Again, criticism of Israel doesn’t make someone a Jew hater. But, when that’s all you have, when you can’t even condemn radical Islam, and cannot denounce Jew hatred, what you’re left with is hatred of Jews. When you have to defend the indefensible, well, here we go
Dem Whip: Omar’s Experience More Powerful Than Holocaust Survivors
House Majority Whip Jim Clyburn (D-SC) claimed the media was treating Rep. Ilhan Omar(D-MN) badly for making several anti semitic comments. Clyburn defended Omar in an interview with The Hill this week. In fact, Clyburn said that Omar’s experience as a refugee was more empirical to the experiences of holocaust survivors.
“I’m serious about that. There are people who tell me, ‘Well, my parents are Holocaust survivors.’ ‘My parents did this.’ It’s more personal with her,†Clyburn told The Hill. “I’ve talked to her, and I can tell you she is living through a lot of pain.â€
Heck, if even newly converted Leftist nutjob S.E. Cupp can see it
Call me naive, but I never expected “Well, the Holocaust was a long time ago” defense of @Ilhan. But here we are. https://t.co/haYJE70vjF

As Seth Mandel notes, this is like telling Holocaust survivors to “check their privilege.”
Not even trying to hide it.
Democrats have a huge problem on their hands and only themselves to blame. https://t.co/0kzU4Gd9pY

The Dems are apparently “tweeking” their condemnation of pretty much everything to now include Latinos specifically, to go with a resolution “released earlier today mentioned several groups including African Americans, Native Americans, Jews, Muslims, Hindus, Sikhs, immigrants.”
They seriously can’t just condemn anti-Semitism without going full on identity politics. If the GOP is not ready to run ads in 2020 highlighting the Democrats as the party of Jew hatred, then they deserve to lose. You can bet one thing: Team Trump will be ready on this.
