The son of a 9/11 victim who slammed Minnesota Rep. Ilhan Omar during the annual Ground Zero memorial service on Wednesday just doubled down on his comments, saying the congresswoman “tore my heart apart” when she belittled the 2001 terrorist attacks.

The New York Post reported that during an interview with Fox News host Sean Hannity, Nicholas Haros Jr. said that he “doesn’t remember” where he was when he first heard that Omar described the September 11 attacks as “some people did something.”

“But,” he said, “It tore my heart apart and it tore my mom’s heart apart with the thought that such a great loss, the individuals could be so insensitively expressed and that hurt.”

Haros is the son of Frances Haros, a 76 year-old woman who was killed while working in the south tower of the Twin Towers as a receptionist on 9/11. While reading the names of the dead at the memorial ceremony, her son held nothing back when he addressed Omar directly.

“Madam, objectively speaking, we know who and what was done. There is no uncertainty about that. Why your confusion?” said Haros as he wore a shirt with Omar’s infamous words emblazoned on it. “On that day, 19 Islamic terrorist members of al Qaeda killed over 3,000 people and caused billions of dollars in economic damage. Is that clear.”

Nicholas Haros Jr. lost his mom on 9/11.

Omar made her infamous comments back in March while speaking at a banquet held by the Council on American-Islamic Relations in California. There, Omar said that the group “was founded after 9/11, because they recognized that some people did something and that all of us were starting to lose access to our civil liberties.”

During his interview with Hannity, Haros said, “I am a victim’s son and I decided to take 9/11 as my one day of perhaps credible standing, which many people have told it represented their views.”

He went on to say that he has received some hate mail over his comments during the solemn ceremony.

“Maybe the worst thing that was said about me today was that I was cranky old man with a bad haircut,” Haros said.
