«Ильхан Омар отправился в Вашингтон, чтобы встряхнуть статус-кво, а не попугать его. Так почему же она пытается доказать свою добросовестность, приняв дискредитированное «решение двух государств», которое является причудливым способом сказать о расовой сегрегации и апартеиде? »- палестинский журналист Али Абунима
