The New York Post hit back at recent comments by Representative Illhan Omar which trivialized the terrorist attacks of 9/11.
According to The Daily Caller:
The New York Post’s front cover Thursday gave a blunt response to Democratic Minnesota Rep. Ilhan Omar’s characterization of the 9/11 terrorist attacks as “some people” who “did something.” The headline in large white font reads, “Here’s Your Something,” coupled with an image of the World Trade Center being hit by a plane in the background.
Omar delivered a speech March 23 — surfacing on Twitter just this week — at a Council for Islamic Relations (CAIR) fundraiser event, where she used non-specific terms to describe the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks: “some people did something.” She seemed to be trying to make the case to a majority-Muslim audience that the attacks didn’t warrant restricted “access” to the “civil liberties” of Muslims.
“CAIR was founded after 9/11, because they recognize that some people did something and that all of us were starting to lose access to our civil liberties,” Omar said in her speech.
The New York Post was making a clear gesture against Omar’s comment in their Thursday, April 11 cover, with a subtitle reading “2,977 people dead by terrorism”.

The article published by the New York Post is highly critical of Omar’s comments and blasts her for trivializing such a tragic event.
