No, CNN, representative Ilhan Omar did not downplay September 11

Omar, a Somali refugee, has not always succinctly and clearly expressed herself. she apologized for some statements that she said were misinterpreted, which is more than Donald Trump has ever done. Let's be clear: it is not anti-Semitic, as such, to be critical of Israeli policy towards its Palestinian neighbors and Palestinians in Israel. Many American Jews consider Israeli politics to be questionable and an obstacle to peace. The same goes for many Israelis. Nor is it anti-Semitic, as such, to ask questions about Israel's influence on American politics.
