ICYMI: Ilhan Omar’s daughter fundraises for Columbia activist in custody who endorsed Oct. 7 attack

Hirsi similarly promoted a fundraiser last month for Mahmoud Khalil, a fellow protest leader and encampment negotiator facing deportation.

Isra Hirsi, the daughter of “Squad” member US Rep. Ilhan Omar (D., Minn.), promoted a fundraiser supporting Mohsen Mahdawi, the Columbia University student activist facing deportation over his support for Hamas.

Hirsi, a far-left activist, anti-Israel agitator, and Barnard College senior, posted a screenshot of the GoFundMe with a link on her Instagram story on Tuesday evening.

At the time, the fundraiser had collected just over $9,000. By Wednesday afternoon, that ballooned to more than $42,000.


The GoFundMe was launched after ICE detained Mahdawi, a Jordanian native, following the revocation of his green card on Monday.


The fundraiser has a $100,000 goal to cover his legal fees and other expenses while in detention.

Originally, the page said the proceeds would also help Mahdawi “achieve his quest for US citizenship,” but that language was scrubbed on Wednesday afternoon.

“It also seeks to further his advocacy for building understanding between Israelis and Palestinians for the traumas that each has experienced to bring peace and justice to each,” an earlier version of the GoFundMe page read.

But the fundraiser still portrays Mahdawi as an “advocate for peace and justice,” though the Columbia graduate student has repeatedly expressed support for Hamas.


Just two weeks after the terrorist group killed nearly 1,200 Israelis during its Oct. 7 attack, Mahdawi told a New England newspaper that “Hamas is a product of the Israeli occupation.”

According to the newspaper, he also helped pen an Oct. 14, 2023, statement that anti-Israel groups at Columbia issued arguing that the “Palestinian struggle for freedom is rooted in international law, under which occupied peoples have the right to resist the occupation of their land.”

Aliza, that is my hope, too. Omar has allegedly committed numerous crimes, yet for some reason, she remains protected.

I hope that Ilhan Omar, and her daughter, would find themselves on the plane supporting terrorism.

I hope that the Home Land Security Pam Bondi would send Ilhan Omar to Mogadishu Somalia with her daughter to wherever she came from.
