Washington, December 7 (RHC)-- The Guardian reveals Congresswomen Ilhan Omar of Minnesota and Rashida Tlaib of Michigan were targeted by a mysterious Israeli-based Facebook group in a far-right campaign to spread misinformation and Islamophobic attacks against the two Democratic congresswomen. 

Ilhan Omar and Rashida Tlaib are the first Muslim women to serve in Congress.  They have been subject to racist insults from President Trump and Islamophobic rants from Trump supporters and other political opponents.  They have both also received violent death threats.
