Mamdani-Endorsee Finds It Reprehensible to Apologize for 'A Terror Attack That a Couple People Did'

Remember back in 2022 when Rep. Ilhan Omar was speaking to a gathering of CAIR and referred to 9/11 as the day that "some people did something"? Now, a woman whom New York City Mayor-Elect Zohran Mamdani, whose father's second cousin was afraid to wear a hijab on the subway because of that something, has endorsed for the New York State Assembly a woman who describes 9/11 as "a terror attack that a couple people did." We wonder 1) how old she was on September 11, 2001, and 2) what university she graduated from, because she hits all the talking points: capitalism, racism, white supremacy, colonialism, etc. And why should anyone apologize for 9/11 when America and the West haven't apologized for all of the genocides they've caused?

How does one earn a master's degree in Islamic Liberation Theology? Who offers that as a major? Probably a lot more schools than we suspect.

That's one pretty good way to interpret it.

If America is so capitalistic and racist and white supremacist and Islamophobic, you should probably find a better country to live in.

And people vote for it. All of these people were elected to office.

The terms "college-educated liberal white women" and "suicidal empathy" spring to mind.

It certainly does seem to resonate with a lot of New York voters.
