Somali Muslim Legislator Votes ‘Yes’ to Allow Life Insurance Payouts to Beneficiaries of Terrorists

Minnesota – Somali Muslim, Ilhan Omar went from refugee to community organizer to state legislator representing Minneapolis and now she’s pushing for laws that favor Islamic terrorists.

Omar has been on our radar here at TGP for quite a while. We reported on her immigration fraud where she married her brother in order to help him gain entry to a U.S. University. We also reported on her getting sworn in on a giant Quran instead of a Holy Bible after getting elected to state legislator in Minnesota.

Now Omar is voting in favor of terrorists. Should we be surprised?

Leo Hohmann of WND reports:

Omar was one of only two members of the Minnesota State House to vote against a bill that would allow life insurance companies to deny payouts to the beneficiaries of terrorists who die in violent attacks on Americans

The House voted 127-2 to pass the bill, which now moves on to a vote in the State Senate.

Omar, who represents the heavily immigrant Cedar Riverside area of Minneapolis, was joined by fellow Democratic Rep. John Lesch of St. Paul in voting against the bill.

Omar’s vote sticks out because at least 42 Somali refugees have been confirmed by the FBI to have left the U.S. to join overseas terrorist organizations, including al-Shabab, the al-Qaida affiliate in Somalia, and ISIS in Syria and Iraq.

Dozens of other Somali-Americans have been tried and/or convicted of providing material support to overseas terrorists.

Before she was elected she was an activist who often lobbied the Minneapolis City Council on progressive issues.

Since her election as a legislator she:

Of course this bill supports terrorists just like similar ones do in Muslim regions…

Democratic Rep. Debra Hilstrom said the goal of the Minnesota bill “is to make certain that folks don’t benefit [from terrorism] and this limits the beneficiary to the premiums that were paid in. It limits the exposure for the insurance company when someone is committing an act of terrorism.”

Debra Anderson, leader of the ACT For America chapter in Minnesota, praised the legislators who voted for the bill Thursday.

“U.S. life insurance policies that pay out to the families of terrorists reminds me of Muslim regions, such as Palestine, that also make ‘life insurance’ payments to the families of jihadists who kill in the name of Allah.”

Anderson said Omar’s vote was reprehensible and shows where her allegiances lie.

This is how Islam takes over nations. Muslims emigrate to non-Muslim countries, infiltrate the government, military and the police force and slowly push for Sharia law. This is stealth jihad. When we allow Muslims to be elected to public office and get sworn in on a Quran, we shouldn’t be surprised when they push for laws that favor Islamic terrorists.
