She said Omar&#8217;s remarks were hurtful to many of her Jewish friends.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt is very dangerous, very dangerous,&#8221; McCain added, &#8220;and I think we collectively as Americans on both sides, what Ilhan Omar is saying is very scary to me. It\u2019s very scary to a lot of people and I don\u2019t think you have to be Jewish to recognize that.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>But instead of responding directly to McCain, Omar retweeted a post that criticized McCain for &#8220;faux outrage&#8221; and referred to past statements attributed to McCain&#8217;s late father, U.S. Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz., who died last August at age 81.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMeghan\u2019s late father literally sang \u2018bomb bomb bomb Iran\u2019 and insisted on referring to his Vietnamese captors as \u2018g&#8211;ks&#8217;,&#8221; read the post by Medhi Hasan, an &#8220;Intercept&#8221; columnist and Al Jazeera host. &#8220;He also, lest we forget, gave the world Sarah Palin.
