Video: Ilhan Omar Cites ‘Right-Wing Attacks,’ Greets Suspended Daughter at Columbia’s ‘Anti-War Encampment’

Ilhan Omar (D-MN) was seen on social media Thursday greeting her daughter during an anti-Israel protest at Columbia University, saying she was there with students in solidarity against “right-wing attacks.”

A video uploaded to her Instagram and X accounts shows her meeting with Isra Hirsi’s friends, including one Jewish pro-Palestinian activist wearing a yarmulke, the Times of Israel was the first to detail.

Hirsi was one of several students suspended after more than 100 anti-Israel protesters were detained by police last week at Columbia, as Breitbart News reported.

Since Hamas, a U.S.-designated Islamic terror group attacked Israel on October 7, leaving 1,200 Israelis dead and more than 200 people taken hostage, anti-Israel protests have increased at campuses around the country

Omar previously posted a statement on X, showing “solidarity” with the students participating in the Columbia anti-Israel encampment.

“Columbia has always had an incredible history of students fighting for a more just world and it’s good to see that tradition continue,” Omar wrote.

“As NYPD surrounds young activists, I hope their concerns are heard by school administrators and they not be criminalized. In solidarity.”
