9/11 Victim’s Son Who Slammed Omar Says People Called Him A Racist. He Fires Back.

On Wednesday at the annual 9/11 memorial at Ground Zero in New York City, Nicholas Haros Jr., who lost his mother in the 9/11 attacks, bluntly addressed Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN), who had cavalierly dismissed the attacks by saying, “Some people did something.” Haros stated, “Good morning, brothers and sisters in good faith — listen, some people did something … Some people did something, said a freshman congresswoman from Minnesota, to support and justify the creation of [the Council on American Islamic Relations (CAIR)] — today I am here to respond to you exactly who did what to whom. Madam, objectively speaking, we know who and what was done. There is no uncertainty about that. Why your confusion?”

On Tuesday night, Haros Jr. joined Sean Hannity on Fox News to discuss his comments earlier in the day, asserting that had received hate mail and intimating that people had called him a racist. He fired back, “If she were a Martian and were green it would not make a difference. That she is a woman doesn’t make a difference. That she is a Muslim doesn’t make a difference. These are Wikipedia facts that have to be said and she needed to respond.”
