In reply to the discussion: Let's give it up for Rep. Ilhan Omar for her wonderful actions yesterday [View all]I was part of three human rights delegations to Guatemala in the early 2000s. I saw the direct results of Eliot Abrams policies. We interviewed survivors and survivor organizations, we visited graveyards, The Forensic Anthropology Center where we saw bones and scraps of clothing. The little caskets where the identified victums remains were to be sent home lined the entryway. Americans need to face up to facts about our foreign policy. It is beyond disgusting that Abrams is a free man and once again a spokesperson for the wrong side of history. Kudos to our true representative!!!!!

Knowing that Abrams viewed her with hatred and disgust, she handled it very well.
