“Why do you hate Christians?”

Representative Ilhan Omar, D-Minn., Expressed outrage at a video of Christians singing on a plane, prompting many Republicans to attack her for what they believe is anti-Christian bigotry.

Omar shared a video Saturday night in which a guitar worship leader sang Christian music for worship on a plane.

“I think my family and I should have a prayer the next time I’m on a plane,” Omar, a Muslim, wrote in the video. “How do you think it will end?”

Many Republican candidates responded by suggesting that Omar had expressed hatred or bigotry against Christians.

“Why do you hate Christians, Ilhan?” asked Vernon Jones, pro-Trump, a former Democrat who is running to represent Georgia in the US House of Representatives. “If the freedom of religion we enjoy here in America bothers you, don’t hesitate to pack up and return to Somalia, Sudan or wherever you are. Take your brother with you.

“In America, Muslims can and can pray in public,” tweeted Jose Castillo, a Republican candidate running for Congress in the 9th Congressional District of Florida. “If she wants a country where Christians are not allowed to do the same [Omar] she has to return to her own country, “he added, probably referring to Somalia, where she was born. (Omar is a naturalized citizen of the United States.)

“Qatar, a country you are very familiar with, is performing Islamic prayers on the intercom before their planes take off,” tweeted Cicelli Davis, a Republican primary candidate in the 5th Minnesota Congressional District, which Omar represents, in response to your opponent. “They have a certain prayer area and the coordinates for Mecca are published on the screens. No problem. The problem is that you hate Christians, Jews and many Muslims.”

Royce White, another Republican candidate in the Minnesota 5th District of Congress, also ran.

“I’m coming for your seat,” White tweeted in response to Omar. “Do not neglect Christianity!” You are a globalist scam. You can’t pray in Pelosi’s office! The democrats you serve do not believe in God. Their platform is openly against God. Minneapolis will not become Mogadishu. We will not bend the knee. “

The original context of the video remains unclear. Omar took it from his Twitter account @ davenewworld_2, which is called “Fifty Shades of Whey”. Reports say the video was shot by Jack Jens Jr., who leads a group called Kingdom Realm Ministries. However, it appears that the original post has been deleted.

Neither Omar’s campaign office nor its spokesman immediately responded to a media request after working hours from Fox News Digital, but Omar retweeted Deadspin sports writer Chuck Modi, who responded to Omar’s responses on social media.

“Ilhan Omar: This is very reasonable,” Modi wrote. “The right, which hates Ilhan Omar: ‘You are attacking Christianity because I am stupid or dishonest or just succumbing to my fanatical base.'”
