Al-Shabaab is a US Government-designated terrorist organization, and in August 2019, Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN) called for the protection of their financier and main backer, Hormuud Telecom, after they contacted the congresswoman and asked for assistance.
Judicial Watch A controversial Minnesota congresswoman known for her anti-American and anti-Semitic inflammatory views, has publicly declared her support for a terrorist organization in her native Somalia. Democrat Ilhan Omar is demanding that a telecommunications company founded and operated by a renowned terrorist financier, receive protection from that country’s government and peacekeeping forces.
On the 25th of August, Rep. Ilhan Omar made the following tweet:
The company, Hormuud Telecommunications, was created and is operated by Ahmed Nur Ali Jim’ale, a chief financier of al–Shabaab, an east African-based jihadist group that serves as Al Qaeda’s affiliate in Somalia. In her social media account, Omar writes that Somalia’s government and peacekeeping forces need to protect Hormuud and the Somali telecom industry as they make enormous contributions to the economy and provide vital services.
“During my visit to Somalia in 2011, I was surprised by the quick evolution of technology in Somalia,” Omar posts, indirectly praising the telecom firm with terrorist ties. The Israeli article includes the links to a pair of United Nations Security Council reports documenting Hormuud’s direct support for al-Shabaab.
According to the first U.N. report: “Ali Ahmed Nur Jim’ale (Jim’ale) has served in leadership roles with the former Somali Council of Islamic Courts, also known as the Somali Islamic Courts Union, which was a radical-Islamic element. The most radical elements of the Somali Islamic Courts Union eventually formed the group known as al–Shabaab.”
The document also identifies Jim’ale, a prominent businessman who controls Hormuud, as one of al-Shabab’s chief financiers. “Hormuud Telecommunications is a company identified as being one of the single largest financiers of al-Shabaab, which includes large lump sum payments to al-Shabaab in the hundreds of thousands of dollars and these payments toal-Shabaab were facilitated by Jim’ale,” the U.N. report says, adding that “Hormuud Telecommunications has provided key material and logistical support to al-Shabaab to include weapons, private fighters, and ammunition.”
The second U.N. Security Council report, published last year, links a terror attack that killed hundreds in 2017 to Hormuud. The event is described as the deadliest terror attack in Somalia’s history, carried out with a large vehicle-borne improvised explosive device.
“Two employees of the principal Somali telecommunications provider, Hormuud Telecom Somalia Inc., were also prosecuted in connection with the attack, for facilitating the entry of the large vehicle-borne improvised explosive device through the Sinka Dheere checkpoint on the outskirts of Mogadishu,” according to the U.N. report.
Considering this documented history of terrorist activity, it’s outrageous that Hormuud is endorsed by a member of the United States Congress. Omar has been plagued by controversy since becoming one of the first—along with Michigan Democrat Rashida Tlaib—Muslim women elected to Congress.
This is not the first time Rep. Ilhan Omar has tried to protect terrorist groups or their recruits. Previously, she had also asked a US judge for compassion and leniency when sentencing nine Minnesota men charged with planning to join ISIS.
The reality is that there is more than enough credible information for the Department of Justice (DOJ), Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and Internal Revenue Service (IRS) to open criminal investigations into Omar. Back in July Judicial Watch filed an ethics complaint with the U.S. House of Representatives Office of Congressional Ethics calling for a full investigation into potential immigration fraud crimes tied to allegations that Omar may have married her biological brother.
Three Americans have died in an attack on a US military base in the southern coastal region of Kenya. Islamic militants from the al-Qaeda-linked al-Shabaab group stormed Camp Simba’s Manda Bay Airfield in the country’s Lamu region on Sunday, a base used by US and Kenyan forces.
She should be hanged .
WICKED SATANIST Omar, the Adored Darling and Face of the Democrat/Marxist Party is an avid Supporter of MUSLIM TERRORIST Organization Al Shabaab.
Do the terrorists pay Evil Omar top dollars for her passionate support?

She,Omar, must start laughing so hard every morning when she looks in her bathroom mirror,puts on her head rag, and goes out into the World knowing that she is playing the American people for the fools she believes they all are.
And she is being paid by the very people she is playing for fools.
She thinks shes above it all.
only 50% are fools…and this is a LOT!
This is what President Trump must deal with besides Iran. I only would hope American patriots would deal with the enemies in American government. The past traitor Presidents knew what they were doing to bring America down.
” Technology in Somalia” What!!! When is she going to get kicked out for lying and stealing?
Omar is a Muslum terrorist plant.
I would have expected nothing differently. A woman who marries her brother while she is already married to another rag head can’t be trusted.The voters in Minnesota are too dense to vote her out.
Now that they have seen her in action, Let’s see what Minnesotans do in November. That will tell how smart of dumb they are.
They will re-elect her. Her district is Somali Muslim infested.
Omar’s district is populated by Somali muslims. As if they would vote one of their own out.
