Rep. Ilhan Omar’s mysterious marital life has been much written about. Was she a bigamist? Was she married to her brother? It’s unclear, but not unlikely. At a minimum, she seems to be playing musical husbands — or is it lovers? The latest seems to be this fellow:
A Washington, DC, mom says her political-consultant husband left her for Rep. Ilhan Omar, according to a bombshell divorce filing obtained by The Post.
Dr. Beth Mynett says her cheating spouse, Tim Mynett, told her in April that he was having an affair with the Somali-born US representative — and that he even made a “shocking declaration of love” for the Minnesota congresswoman before he ditched his wife, alleges the filing, submitted in DC Superior Court on Tuesday.
The physician, 55, and her 38-year-old husband — who has worked for left-wing Democrats such as Omar and her Minnesota predecessor, Keith Ellison — have a 13-year-old son together.
Uh-oh. Holy Anna Karenina, is adultery in the air? How many times with how many people? When does this woman have time to legislate? She’s only been in Congress (excuse the double entendre) for months. And most of the time she’s in front of a TV camera. I thought Rep. Omar was a devout Muslim.
No wonder she was (or pretended to be) so upset when that unruly crowd of “deplorables” chanted “Send them back!” Going back to Somalia would definitely spell big trouble for Omar. (Israel would have been a better and much safer choice. Too bad about that.) To wit:
Somalia’s Islamist group al-Shabaab has publicly stoned a woman to death in a town in the south for cheating on her husband, an official told Reuters.
Al Shabaab, which has been waging a war for years to topple the Horn of Africa country’s western-backed government, seeks to bring in rule based on its strict interpretation of sharia law.
Sheikh Mohamed Abu Abdalla, al-Shabaab’s governor for Somalia’s Jubba regions in the south, said Habiba Ali Isak, a 30-year-old mother of eight children, was killed by stoning in Sakow on Thursday afternoon.
Phew! Omar only has three children. Maybe they’d go easy on her. And her marital situation has, as I noted, been unclear for some time (as well as have her immigration and tax statuses). Not so her paramour Mr. Mynett. He was definitely married — after his fashion. A trip to the Somalian homeland (for a new honeymoon or even a tryst) would not be advisable for him either:
MOGADISHU (Reuters) – Somali Islamist insurgents stoned a man to death on Sunday as punishment for alleged adultery, they said, a reminder that the militia is still strong enough to carry out public executions despite losing its grip on most towns and cities.
Hundreds of witnesses watched the death of 44-year-old Dayow Mohamed Hassan in Ramo Adey village in the south-central Bay region, the regional governor representing the al Qaeda-linked insurgency said.
Moalim Geedow told Reuters that Hassan was buried neck-deep in a hole then pelted with stones.
In case you’re interested neither of these events occurred in the ninth or even the twelfth centuries. Both date from 2017.
Roger L. Simon is a great writer as is the Powerline writer who has been keeping us up on the trials and tribulations of Ilhan Omar.
But there are things in Islam that go right over their heads.
Hizb ut-Tahrir is a pan-Islamist organization.
In it a person can drink alcohol, marry an infidel, engage in homosexual activity and do any other forbidden thing as long as their goal is to further Islam on the earth.
The 9-11-01 bombers were Hizb ut-Tahrir.
Huma Abidin/Weiner is one.
Looks like Ilhan Omar is one, too.
The video of her out to get (or keep) this man shows her covered BUT wearing skin-tight pants!
Totally unIslamic!
Unless you are Hizb ut-Tahrir.
That said, her marriage to her brother after she and her hubby had a spat so her husband said, “I divorce you,” three times, is actually demanded in Islamic canon.
A divorced woman* can only get back with her husband AFTER she has had sex with some other man, in order to humiliate her.
Usually that man is a relative and the sex is violent.
*Saying “I divorce you,” three times is a valid Islamic divorce …..for the man.
