Piracy – Winds of Jihad

Somali Rat Watch: ‘She’s Never Answered These Questions’

Feds Refer to Rep. Ilhan Omar as ‘Ilhan Nur Said Elmi,’ Renewing Allegations She Married Her Brother

In an interview with MS NOW’s Chris Hayes on Wednesday evening, Omar was asked if she was related to her ex-husband. Omar responded, “Not to my knowledge,” a reply that has since gone viral online. Bizarre!

The most stunning part of the Rep. Ilhan Omar search warrant comes from an unusual place… the name.

The search warrant names her as Congresswoman Ilhan Nur Said Elmi aka Ilhan Abdullahi Omar.

What does this mean, why is it a big deal and why does it matter?

Ilhan Omar’s Sweaty and Nervous Interview

“Congresswoman Ilhan Omar is under investigation for potential immigration fraud that could have major consequences, and Senator Slotkin of Michigan is warning Republicans not to work for Trump, or they might be investigated,” asks Peter Schweizer. “Is this political targeting? Is it all the same?”

Officials with the United States Attorney’s Office for the District of Columbia refer to Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN) as “Ilhan Nur Said Elmi” in their latest filing, renewing allegations and rumors that have circulated for years that the Somalia-born congresswoman married her brother.

Peter Schweizer Goes Through the Immigration Issues Ilhan Omar Dodged for a Decade

Talk about suicidal empathy – turned massive grift.
Two church non-profits — Catholic Charities and Lutheran Social Services — raked in at least $62 million in government contracts to establish the Somali community in Minnesota in the 1990s — leading to the rise of Ilhan Omar and $9 billion stolen in the largest welfare fraud in US history
They picked Minnesota because it had extremely generous state social safety net policies and welfare programs

UK History: Barbary Raiders Were a Real, Persistent Threat

Update:

A United Nations agency told countries to “strongly discourage” merchant ship crews from acquiring firearms to defend against piracy, despite 90 sailors being held hostage by Somali pirates.

The UN is a disgrace.

The Strait of Malacca and the waters around Singapore saw the most attacks or attempted attacks, accounting for 122 of the 171 incidents, according to the annual report. The narrow waters, large amount of traffic and the numerous islands, inlets and coastal areas that can provide concealment and escape routes for pirates contributed to the frequency of attacks in that region, according to a Security Outlines report.

Pirates Flew the Flag of Islam Over British Soil. It Took Years to Get It Down.
In 1625, the Mayor of Bristol sent an alarming report to the English
government: three Turkish pirate ships had seized the island of Lundy, in
the Bristol Channel, carried off its inhabitants to be sold as slaves, and
were now threatening to burn the nearby town of Ilfracombe unless a large
ransom was paid.

THE ISLAND

Lundy sits directly in the shipping lanes leading in and out of the
Bristol Channel, small, remote, and difficult to reach, making it an
ideal hideout. For a time, contemporary reports describe Barbary corsairs
using the island as a base, with the flag of Islam raised over its stone
castle in place of an English one.

Worth being honest here: modern historians have pushed back on just how
continuous this occupation actually was. An English naval officer at the
time, Thomas Harris of HMS Phoenix, denied the initial reports outright,
and a government inquiry turned up conflicting accounts. What isn’t in
dispute is that Barbary raiders were a real, persistent presence in the
Bristol Channel for years, using Lundy and nearby waters to strike the
English and Welsh coastline again and again.

THE RAIDS

From this base, corsairs terrorized the coasts of Cornwall, Devon, and
Dorset for years. In one especially brazen raid, Dutch convert Jan
Janszoon, known as Murat Reis the Younger, led his men into a church
mid-service on a Sunday and dragged sixty worshippers straight out of the
congregation into slavery.

WHAT’S LEFT

It took years, and eventually a dedicated English naval expedition under
Captain John Penington, to finally clear the corsairs from Lundy for
good.

Even then, reports of Barbary ships using the island resurfaced as
late as 1635
