WATCH: Politically-Charged Fairfax, VA School Board Member Sparks Outrage Among Parents

The Fairfax County, Virginia, School Board meetings have become much more enjoyable as of late. Fox News reports that one individual has drawn a lot of controversy in particular. That person is Fairfax County Public Schools (FCPS) board member Abrar Omeish.

Omeish has courted much controversy by commenting on topics such as capitalism, white supremacy, racism, and American History.

Fox News reports that Omeish commented at the recent school board meeting that the 28-year-old stated that the Battle of Imo Jima was "evil" and "unfortunate" while discussing the Day of Remembrance at the most recent school board meeting. That invasion occurred on February 19, 1945.

Omeish said: "Just a few days ago was Japanese Day of Remembrance," and "Something for us to certainly reflect on … the days when, you know, Iwo Jima unfortunately happened and set a record for really what, I hate to say, human evil is capable of."

In this battle, nearly 7,000 American troops died for the cause of freedom. Despite this, the school board member believed it appropriate to say that this battle was evil and unfortunate.

Despite this, Omeish is trying to back away from her comments now. She released a statement stating that she regrets that her comments were "misrepresented." She told Fox News Digital the following: "I would like to set the record straight,"

"Before the battle at Iwo Jima in Feb 1945, Japan knew it could not defend the island, but its Government still demanded its military forces to fight to the death. Even though Lieutenant General Kuribayashi knew there was no possibility of winning the battle, Prime Minster Hideki Tojo sent him on a suicidal mission to inflict as many casualties as possible on allied forces and to never surrender. The unnecessary spilling of blood was not right."

Whatever the case, she has certainly managed to draw attention to herself. Perhaps that was her intent, and perhaps it wasn't. Regardless, the point is that she certainly put a significant spotlight on these school board meetings and seemed to throw a wrench in things, as her comments often derail these school board meetings. It is something that many people recognize as the outcome of the various comments made by the school board member.
