Ilhan Omar Has A Problem With Jews Opinion

Despite her repeated denials and the rush to circle the wagons from some left-wing Jews, there’s an undeniable pattern. The latest iteration came earlier this week, when Omar was asked by CNN’s Jake Tapper about her past statements. “Do you understand why some of your fellow House Democrats, especially Jews, find that language antisemitic?” Tapper asked. “I’ve welcomed, you know, anytime my colleagues have asked to have a conversation, to learn from them, for them to learn from me,” Rep....

Ilhan Omar S Soviet Anti Semitism Opinion

Fifty years later, Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN) has perfectly mirrored this strategy in fending off attacks on her own legitimacy. In recent campaign literature, Omar went to town on her primary opponent, Antone Melton-Meaux, for being “in the pocket of Wall Street” and “special interests.” When it came to naming individuals to whom Melton-Meaux is allegedly beholden, the only people identified by first and last name are Jewish: Stanley Weinstein, Jonathan Gray and Seth Klarman....

At the end of the day, we are counting eligible votes, cast by voters,” Schmidt told 60 Minutes’ Bill Whitaker, as staff continue to count provisional ballots. “The controversy surrounding it is something I don’t understand....

Imagining The Day After

Back in Washington, U.S. officials who are quietly–and gingerly–making plans for postwar Iraq dismiss comparisons to the imperial MacArthur. The last thing they want to emulate in Iraq is the seven-year occupation of Japan. In fact, some officials at the Pentagon and State Department tell NEWSWEEK they hope to be able to withdraw U.S. troops in as little as 30 to 90 days after President Saddam Hussein’s ouster–if Iraq’s military can be swiftly purged of his henchmen and turned into a pro-Western security force....

Improving Batshuayi Will Get A Chance At Chelsea Conte

Morata suffered a hamstring strain against Manchester City two weeks ago and Batshuayi will likely get the call as his replacement. Batshuayi has struggled to hold down a starting spot despite his impressive goal record since joining last season. The 24-year-old has a goal every 67.6 minutes, but Conte is most impressed by improvements in his all round game. “I think if you compare Michy with last season he has improved a lot and he understood this league because it is not simple,” Conte said at a news conference at Cobham Training Centre....

In Defense Of Cheering

Bring it on? Modern cheerleaders do, with a vengeance. There’s a lot more to cheering than short skirts and “fight, fight, fight!” says Kate Torgovnick, author of “Cheer.” Torgovnick spent a year following three groups—a four-time championship team, an all-girls squad and an all-African-American team—none of which fit the stereotype of vapid blondes doing splits on the sidelines. Instead, she discovered, competitive cheerleaders are more like extreme athletes: daredevil adrenaline junkies who often perform exhausted or hurt and love their sport with an addict’s devotion....

Speaking with The Jerusalem Post at the end of this week’s visit to Israel, Pompeo said the U.S. sympathized with the Palestinian people but was critical of their leadership, expressing hope that the long awaited but widely panned Trump peace proposal could still one day succeed.

The report does have its critics. “This is a statistical association, not a cause and effect,” says University of Wisconsin pediatrician Frank Greer. But the major formula companies aren’t contesting the findings. “We’ve always said bottles in the crib is a bad idea,” says John Vanderhoof, medical director for Mead Johnson. “You have to hold babies when you feed them.” Now it’s the weary parent’s turn to cry.
