**Ilhan Omar Dodges Questions on Fatal Shooting of Israeli Embassy Staff: “I Thought We Were Talking About Pizza!”**
In a stunning display of political acrobatics, Congresswoman Ilhan Omar was spotted dodging questions about the recent fatal shooting of Israeli embassy staff with the grace of a gazelle on roller skates. When approached by reporters outside a local coffee shop, Omar reportedly exclaimed, “Wait, are we talking about the pizza place or the embassy? Because if it’s pizza, I’m all in!”
Eyewitnesses claim that Omar, who was last seen wearing a “Pizza is Life” t-shirt, quickly pivoted the conversation to her favorite toppings. “I mean, who doesn’t love a good pepperoni?” she quipped, while simultaneously ducking behind a large pepperoni pizza box. “I’m just here for the carbs, folks!”
When pressed further about the shooting, Omar’s spokesperson, a man named “Cheese” McCrust, stepped in to clarify. “Congresswoman Omar is committed to addressing all issues, especially those involving cheese. But let’s be real, who can focus on international relations when there’s a pizza crisis happening right here?”
Political analysts are baffled by Omar’s tactics. “It’s like watching a cat avoid a bath,” said Dr. Fumble McJumble, a self-proclaimed expert in political evasion. “You can’t help but admire the creativity, even if you’re not sure what’s happening.”
As the press conference continued, Omar was seen attempting to juggle three pizzas while simultaneously answering questions about foreign policy. “I’m just trying to keep all my options open,” she said, tossing a slice into the air. “And if anyone wants to talk about toppings, I’m all ears!”
In the end, the only thing that was clear was that Ilhan Omar had successfully dodged the questions, leaving reporters with nothing but a craving for pizza and a newfound respect for her culinary diplomacy.
