Pro-Israel protesters got a profane response when they suggested that Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN) “go to Gaza.”
It’s a sentiment that many conservative Americans share as some U.S. lawmakers show sympathy for unsavory factions in the Middle East. Omar, however, doesn’t appear to appreciate it.

“Go to Gaza, go to Gaza, sweetheart,” one man is heard saying.
Right before the elevator doors close, Omar can be seen and heard telling the man “F**k you.”
This was the ending of a tense confrontation by pro-Israel supporters who tried (and failed) to get Omar to condemn terror group Hamas.
“Why do you stand with Hamas? Why don’t you condemn Hamas?” asked one protester. “Do you like Hamas and Hezbollah?”

X users were quick to call out the behavior of a sitting member of Congress:

Yep.. that sounds like what she would say! She does NOT DESERVE TO BE IN OUR COUNTRY OR BE PART OUR GOVERNMENT IN ANY WAY! Domestic terrorist who supports Hamas and Iran

Why are terrorist supporters even allowed in this country, yet alone in the government? She needs to be removed from office.
