Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN) called the Notre Dame Cathedral “art and architecture” in a tweet Monday, without referencing its name or significance to the Catholic religion. “Art and architecture have a unique ability to help us connect across our differences and bring people together in important ways. Thinking of the people of Paris and praying for every first responder trying to save this wonder,” she tweeted. The tweet sparked immediate criticism from those who noted that the historical Catholic cathedral was more than just “art and architecture.”

Oh yeah, how about I walk through your Great Mosque in Mecca in my muddy white man shoes? It´s just another building, right, Omar?

I am thankful for her prayers. The God who made her loves her and will listen. Thank you, Ilhan.

She´s a Muslim. She models her life upon the teachings of Mohammad. Whatever presents itself to her she says ´What would Mohammad say/do/think etc.´ What do you think Mohammad would ahve done if he had seen Notre Dame burn? Privately he´d dance on the ceiling. In public, depending upon his audience, he´d measure his taqiyya and tell just as much as a lie as he´d need to achieve his goals. Omar can´t say anything referring to how holy or how important a site like Notre Dame is to Catholics, just that, yeah, its a building. With art. And some people did something. Once. In NY. Yeah.

I despise this woman, esp. what she said about 9/11 but let´s not jump the shark. She referred to Notre Dame as art and architecture which is what it is to her. It is not a Holy site in her religion. She offered prayers for the responders. We should accept her statement at face value.

I´m Jewish. It´s not a holy site in my religion either but I recognize and acknowledge Notre Dame as a major Christian church. As for her prayers, I wouldn´t trust them.

The more Ms. Thing opens her yap, the fewer people will like her or take her seriously. She calls attention to the the essence of her soulless Democrat Party.

And it just accidentally burned because SOME PEOPLE DID SOMETHING?
In the USA you are innocent until proven guilty. Try that in France.

On this, I´m not going to criticize. She´s not a Catholic or a Christian, so to her, its an historic building full of art. I feel the same way about Al-Masjid Haram Sharif,Sultan Ahmed Mosque, Al Aqsa Mosque, Sultan Omar Ali Saifuddin Mosque....well frankly any mosque. I feel the same way about Buddhist, Hindu, Roman, Greek and Egyptian temples. These places of worship dont reflect my beliefs, but I appreciate their value, beauty, significance, etc.
If she couldn´t or wont acknowledge the religious significance to the cathedrals adherents, should have been better served by keeping her mouth shut. But then again, what can you expect from someone who boils down 911 to "some people did something that day"

Would a Muslim enter the building Notre Dame? If not, it´s because it´s not because of the art and architecture.

IMO we´re better off taking her statement at face value and moving on. She will continue to provide lots of material for legitimate criticism, so why go off on something like this that many people will see as sincere.

Much more than that, and it probably caused her pain to say that.

Oh, I’m going to criticize her alright. I think she stays up at night trying to come up with ways to insult America, Christians, Jews and conservatives. She is nothing less than evil and would kill every one of us if she could.
And as to taking what she says at face value... No one can take ANYTHING a Muslim says at face value. If you do, you are a fool.

In an effort to be fair I´ll try to meet Omar where she made that comment, intellectually speaking. After all, she´s nothing more than a skin sack of genetic junk and protoplasm...

She cannot call it a cathedral or ancient Christian house of worship, for that would go against the Islamic command that all houses of worship belong to “allah” (even if they don’t know it yet or haven’t been conquered, yet) and her friends in CAIR and the Muslim Brotherhood can’t have that. See: The former Hagia Sophia in what was once Constantinople and a sad percentage of the churches in Britain.

Her continually yanking of our chains is intentional. She craves attention, is getting it successfully, and will bring down the Dems in the next election. (Hooray!) Her craving for attention is so dramatic, she is oblivious to the end result.

Someone should remind this moron that Notre Dame is a house of worship. It is a Catholic church. On equal footing as her Mosque. You receive respect from people when you show respect. That´s not part of her make up. This woman is wearing out her welcome very fast in Washington. But there is a remedy. VOTE HER OUT.

There have been a LOT of church burnings in France lately. If they did find a mooslim started the ND fire I dont thing the government would have the stones to admit it.

Omar isn’t alone. Pretty much every social media post from every influencer / want to be influencer/ pop culture media source today has mourned the lost of architecture and art. No mention that it is actually a Catholic Church. No understanding that it is in fact sacred art and sacred architecture. They refer it with female pronouns, but only recognizing the building, not the Queen it was built for. So many seem to think is simply a museum. It isn’t. At least, not yet.

Welcome her prayers? Why? She prays to a false god. Her religion is a tool of satan. Our prayers reach the throne of God through the Name of Jesus. I doubt she prays in His Name.

I totally exonerate her as she is ignorant of history and empathy for others. Pathetic.
What I cannot excuse is her penchant for always seeking the limelight about issues she knows nothing about.

This is like a tag team. AOC can´t take criticism so JihadJane starts up and We have to pay for her security.
Always remember her BF LindaSarsour says she is running Washington now.

About what you would expect from Omar after she got done cheering that cathedral burned down. I bet she was hoping that her jihadi pals would replace it with a mosque and get the money from Soros and Piglousi (congressional fiat using taxpayer money).
