Ilhan Omar’s daughter applauds anti-ICE riots, urges ‘Death’ to ‘Colonial Empire’: U.S. and Israel ‘One Oppressor’
“From L.A. to Rafah, there is one common oppressor — Death to the colonial empire,” warned Isra Hirsi, daughter of Minnesota “Squad” member Rep. Ilhan Omar, in a viral Instagram post praising anti-ICE riots in Los Angeles while linking U.S. immigration enforcement with the Gaza conflict, and casting both the U.S. and Israel as colonial powers to be violently dismantled.
As radical protesters clashed with police and ICE agents in downtown L.A., far-left activist Isra Hirsi publicly endorsed the unrest and connected it to the war in Gaza, stating: “From L.A. to Rafah, there is one common oppressor. Death to the colonial empire. Life for our children.”
The message, calling the USA and Israel part of the same “colonial oppressor” system, drew sharp criticism for glorifying violence.
Her post reflects a growing far-left trend of linking U.S. law enforcement to global causes like Gaza — alarming critics who see it as a veiled call for violent domestic uprising.
The matter comes as rioters in Los Angeles — many waving Palestinian flags and chanting for an “intifada” — turned protests over ICE raids into coordinated violence, fueled by pro-Hamas rhetoric under the banner of “anti-colonial” resistance.
