Ilhan Omar 'Qatari asset,' Florida court hears

Ilhan Omar was recruited by a foreign government, received funding from a foreign government, and passed sensitive information through intermediates to Iran, a Florida court has been told.

The claims came during testimony by Kuwati-born Canadian businessman Alan Bender, who was giving evidence in the trial of Sheikh Khalid bin Hamad al-Thani. The Qatari emir's brother stands accused of ordering his American bodyguard to murder two people, and of holding an American citizen hostage. His deposition, obtained by Al Arabiya English, was authenticated by the attorney for the plaintiffs, according to the publication.

...
Bender testified that the officials asked him to recruit American politicians and journalists as Qatari assets, and that when he objected, was told that several prominent figures were already on the payroll. US Congresswoman Omar was described as the "jewel in the crown," he said.

Qatar “recruited Ilhan Omar from even way before she thought about becoming a government official. […] They groomed her and arranged the foundation, the grounds, for her to get into politics way before she even showed interest. They convinced her,” he added.

If there were indisputable proof, I'd say try her for treason and execute her, since as far as I know there's no proof at all, this is just bad PR and we can hope the upcoming election takes care of the issue.


Kind of like the Trump impeachment.

TREASON. A breach of allegiance to one's government, usually committed through levying war against such government or by giving aid or comfort to the enemy. The offense of attempting by overt acts to overthrow the government of the state to which the offender owes allegiance; or of betraying the state into the hands of a foreign power. Treason consists of two elements: adherence to the enemy, and rendering him aid and comfort. Cramer v. U. S., U.S.N.Y., 325 U.S. 1, 65 S.Ct. 918, 932, 89 L.Ed. 1441. See 18 U.S.C.A. § 2381.
A person can be convicted of treason only on the testimony of two witnesses, or confession in open court. Art. III, Sec. 3, U.S. Constitution.
- - - Black’s Law Dictionary, Sixth Ed., p. 1501

Two witnesses?

That would seem to me, to be treason......would it not?

murder is a criminal trial. the plaintiffs would be the prosecutor, the government. If this is in FL court, is it somehow a closed tial?

Default Ilhan Omar Accused Of Being A Paid Agent Of Qatar

Wonderful. If true, a crime worthy of public execution. But not for a Democrat.
