He is just some guy, not very bright who had a mental breakdown/tipping point. Again, moral injury, not terrorism. It's important to stop being cartoonish Amercians and get that. Always flattening everything into Good vs. Evil. Not every act of violence is calculated and ideological. Sometimes, it's psychological collapse after too much unprocessed/unprocessable shite. It's adult school shooting, not 9/11.
The Egyptian news outlets are stating the Colorado terrorist is associated with the Muslim Brotherhood. As a reminder, Hamas emerged as a breakaway group from the Palestinian branch of the Muslim Brotherhood in the late 1980s. The Muslim Brotherhood is a banned terrorist group in Egypt. Keep in mind however that US investigators have provided no finding tying Soliman to the Muslim Brotherhood at this point in time. Some Egyptian news outlets paint connection between Colorado attacker and Muslim Brotherhood US President Donald Trump echoed the theme on Truth Social, writing that the attack showed why “the Muslim Brotherhood must stay banned and its sympathisers removed.” https://www.jpost.com/international/islamic-terrorism/article-856304
Yeh well, the 5000 per day who were actually coming across the border was more than just a "distraction." Visa overstays are a huge problem but what do you expect when overstays are just released into the community and then given work permits rather than deported outright. Which is how Camp Biden handled Jihad Muhammed there. But you can't deport him because the lefties will cry and Biden didn't know what month it was.
First, and this does not diminish the murders, just for accuracy of record and because some commentary says Jewish and some Christian, the man Yaron Lischinsky who was shot with his Jewish girlfriend in Washington was not strictly Jewish as mainstream would recognize, being from the frowned on Messianic Jews. He was in one view a German Christian who had served in the IDF and a somewhat fringe Jew. I can't imagine Elias Rodriguez knew this, just that the were Israeli embassy staff. "Messianic Jews maintain the holiness of both the Bible and the Gospel but place an emphasis on the Jewish identity of Jesus, whom they refer to by his Hebrew name, Yeshua. While many adherents considered themselves part of the Jewish people, the movement is considered outside the fold by all mainstream Jewish denominations, as believing in Jesus is considered to run counter to the key tenets of Judaism." https://www.timesofisrael.com/for-m...yaron-lischinskys-murder-was-a-personal-loss/ As this manifesto available now, its worth examining. He was clearly involved in research, the title "Explication" giving this away as not a word many would recognize, typical of literary theory, philosophy, or advanced academic writing. He remarks that in 2014 such an action would have seemed “insane” but today it is “legible.” This is deeply Foucauldian or post-structuralist language, treating public perception and historical narrative as shifting frameworks. Meaning more people today are likely to understand the meaning or motivation behind his actions than they would have in the past before Gaza became a very hot potato. The document is not just a "rant" basically. It bears resemblance to the writings of politically motivated attackers across history, from John Brown to Frantz Fanon, Ted Kaczynski, and Anders Breivik; though their moral justifications and politics differ wildly. Summary of the "Halilintar" Manifesto by Elias Rodriguez (May 20, 2025) Attached as PDF. 1. Central Thesis: The manifesto condemns Israel's actions in Gaza, describing them as a genocide with mass civilian casualties, especially children. It accuses the U.S. government and Western powers of enabling or abetting these acts through support or silence. 2. The Role of Media and Numbers: The author asserts that Israel has effectively destroyed the mechanisms for accurately counting the dead in Gaza and likens the current underreporting to the Saudi-led bombing in Yemen, claiming both conflicts involved systematic cover-ups and dramatic undercounting of civilian deaths. 3. Justification of Armed Action: The manifesto attempts to morally justify a violent act—not as military aggression but as "armed demonstration". The author draws on historical examples of symbolic or disruptive violence against powerful figures (e.g., Vietnam-era Secretary of Defense Robert McNamara) to argue that symbolic violence can puncture the illusion of impunity held by powerful actors. 4. On Humanity and Accountability: Rodriguez rejects the idea that perpetrators must be "inhuman monsters," arguing that ordinary, complex humans are capable of great evil and should still be held accountable. He suggests that violent resistance is morally valid, and no longer “illegible” (incomprehensible) to the public given the current scale of suffering. 5. Personal Notes and Martyrdom: The document ends with personal farewells and a declaration of love to family. There’s also a reference to Aaron Bushnell (a U.S. airman who self-immolated in 2024 in protest of the Gaza war), portraying him and others as having sacrificed themselves with purpose. 6. Tone and Style: Literary and rhetorical: Includes historical references, emotive imagery, and moral absolutism. Uncompromising: Rejects incremental reform or rhetorical support as insufficient. Tragic and revolutionary: The tone frames the author's own death as inevitable or necessary, in line with historical martyr figures. Anti-Israel, Not Overtly Antisemitic The text is strongly anti-Israel, focusing on: The Israeli military's actions in Gaza (described as genocidal), The perceived complicity of Western governments, especially the U.S., A call to action rooted in outrage over Palestinian suffering. However, it does not explicitly attack Jews as a people, religion, or ethnicity. There are no racialized, religious, or ethnic slurs, nor does it engage in classic antisemitic tropes (e.g., global Jewish conspiracies, financial control, blood libel, etc.).
Another murderous antisemite. Michigan antisemite plotted to massacre kids at Jewish daycare, tried to buy assault weapons to use for ‘God’s wrath’: feds https://nypost.com/2025/06/02/us-ne...tted-to-massacre-kids-at-jewish-daycare-feds/ A Michigan antisemite was plotting to massacre kids at a Jewish daycare and tried to illegally buy assault weapons after hurling threats at the preschoolers, federal prosecutors have revealed. Hassan Chokr, 35, was out on bail when he drove through the parking lot of Temple Beth El in Bloomfield Hills, outside Detroit, and shouted antisemitic slurs and threats as parents dropped off their kids in December 2022, authorities said. He pleaded guilty to federal gun charges on May 28. US Attorney Jerome F. Gorgon Jr said Chokr’s attempted gun purchase was part of what authorities believe was a larger plot “to follow through on his menacing threats against parents and preschoolers as they walked into a place of worship.” Hassan Chokr, 35, was out on bail when he drove through the parking lot of Temple Beth El in Bloomfield Hills and shouted antisemitic slurs and threats. Shortly after his antisemitic rant, he drove to a gun shop in his nearby hometown of Dearborn. Immediately after his antisemitic rant, he drove to a gun shop in his nearby hometown of Dearborn — which is home to the country’s highest portion of Arab Americans — and tried to buy three semiautomatic weapons. The Michigan man lied on the gun application, stating that he wasn’t convicted of a felony and didn’t have any pending felony charges, according to the Department of Justice. But Chokr was already convicted in 2017 of felony theft. He also had a pending assault with a dangerous weapon charge. While awaiting the results of a background check during the firearms purchase, Chokr stated “It ain’t a fair fight out here” and that he was “going to even the score” and “even the playing field real soon brothers, real soon,” according to court documents. The gun store owner also overheard Chokr say that he intended to use the weapons for “God’s wrath.” The federal background check detected the felonies, and he was denied the purchase. The feds showed surveillance images from inside the store where he tried out a Del-Ton AR-15-style assault rifle, a Landor Arms automatic shotgun and a Glock pistol. Prosecutors previously said Chokr had “posted videos and statements on Instagram where he talks about buying guns.” One of the posts said “‘Your Jew tactics will only backfire on you, you have no place on this earth, Jew [expletive], Jew mother [expletives]. A storm is coming to wipe you all out of our lives,'” according to prosecutors. At a court appearance after his arrest, Chokr pulled down his pants and exposed his rear-end to the judge to protest his arrest. He now faces up to ten years in prison and a fine of up to $250,000.

The antisemitic terrorist waited until his daughter graduated high school before executing his attack. Now she and the entire family is on the fast track for deportation. Some favor he did her. Boulder suspect's wife, kids in ICE custody: DHS The suspect, 45-year-old Mohamed Soliman, faces federal and state charges. https://abcnews.go.com/US/boulder-g...nic-attack-unfolded-theyre/story?id=122442349 The wife and children of Boulder, Colorado, terrorism suspect Mohamed Soliman are in the custody of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement and the family is being processed for expedited removal, according to the Department of Homeland Security. "We are investigating to what extent his family knew about this heinous attack, if they had knowledge of it, or if they provided support to it," Secretary of Homeland Security Kristi Noem said Tuesday. "I am continuing to pray for the victims of this attack and their families. Justice will be served." Soliman -- who was arrested after allegedly throwing Molotov cocktails in an "act of terrorism" during a pro-Israel demonstration on Sunday -- has been in the U.S. on an expired tourist visa, officials said The father of five was granted a work permit, but that had also expired in March. Soliman was born in Egypt and lived in Kuwait for 17 years before moving to Colorado Springs three years ago, court documents said. Secretary of State Marco Rubio wrote on social media on Monday, "In light of yesterday’s horrific attack, all terrorists, their family members, and terrorist sympathizers here on a visa should know that under the Trump Administration we will find you, revoke your visa, and deport you." Soliman allegedly said he had been planning Sunday's attack for one year but waited until his daughter graduated from high school last Thursday to carry it out, state and federal documents said. Omer Shachar, a co-leader of Run for Their Lives in Boulder, told ABC News he was standing in front of the group outside the Boulder courthouse Sunday afternoon when a man threw a Molotov cocktail under their legs. Shachar felt "panic right away" as his friends caught fire in front of his eyes. "They're literally on fire," he said. "I don't know if I can express it enough -- literally on fire and trying to pull my friend out of the fire." "Once someone could help her, I was reaching out to the [attacker] and try, I don't know what I thought, but maybe to tackle him ... but we saw that he's approaching to a container full of bottles and realized that it's not a good idea, so we stepped back," Shachar said. "We're trying to keep people away as much as possible, although some of them couldn't walk. One of them was on the ground where the fire is." Shachar said passersby stepped in with water bottles to try to help put out the blaze. Twelve people were injured, officials said. Two victims remain in the hospital. Authorities are reviewing a newly released video showing the chaos and panic in the attack's aftermath. Soliman, who allegedly disguised himself as a gardener during the attack, told police "he wanted to kill all Zionist people and wished they were all dead," court documents said. "SOLIMAN stated he would do it (conduct an attack) again." He "said this had nothing to do with the Jewish community and was specific in the Zionist group supporting the killings of people on his land (Palestine)," documents said. Shachar said Run for Their Lives holds a peaceful walk every Sunday to raise awareness about the hostages who remain held in Gaza by Hamas since Oct. 7, 2023. Participants include those who are "Jewish and non-Jewish, right and left, Israelis and non-Israelis, Americans and non-Americans," he said. "And people are coming for the same cause -- to bring those hostages back home." Shachar said he hopes the group can return to their walks soon. "At the moment, Run for the Lives, the international group, asked to stop walking until we understand better safety arrangements and security arrangements," he said. "However, personally, I will say that as long as we can do it, and as long that we're working with the police and we can do it, I will walk until the last hostage is back home." Soliman had taken a concealed carry class to learn how to fire a gun, but "had to use Molotov cocktails [for the attack] after he was denied the purchase of a gun due to him not being a legal citizen," state court documents said. Sixteen unused Molotov cocktails were within "arm’s reach" of the suspect when he was arrested, FBI Denver Special Agent in Charge Mark Michalek said on Monday. The unlit Molotov cocktails were "comprised of glass wine carafe bottles or Ball jars containing clear liquid and red rags hanging out of the bottles," court documents said. Police also found a "backpack weed sprayer, potentially containing a flammable substance. The clear liquid in the glass bottles and weed sprayer were determined to be 87 octane gasoline, which was determined to contain xylene." Soliman has been charged with a federal hate crime and state charges including 16 counts of attempted first-degree murder, according to court documents. He appeared in court virtually on Monday. He has yet to enter a plea.
Biden-appointed judge blocks deportation of Boulder attack suspect's family despite visa violations Republicans slam Democrats for putting 'illegals ahead of Americans' https://www.foxnews.com/us/biden-ap...ttack-suspects-family-despite-visa-violations In an emergency ruling, a Biden administration-appointed federal judge in Colorado halted the deportation of the wife and five children of Mohamed Soliman, the Egyptian national under federal investigation for the Boulder firebombing attack on Sunday. The temporary restraining order (TRO), issued by U.S. District Judge Gordon P. Gallagher, prevents federal immigration authorities from removing Soliman's wife, Hayem El Gamal, and the couple's five children from the country — at least for now. "Defendants are temporarily restrained and enjoined from removing Hayem El Gamal and her five minor children from the State of Colorado or the United States," Gallagher wrote in the order. The ruling will remain in effect until a scheduled hearing on June 13. The order came after El Gamal's friend, Susanna Dvortsin, sought emergency legal protection for the family. She argued that the family faced imminent deportation by the Trump administration without the opportunity to present their case in court. Gallagher agreed, writing that the family's deportation would cause "irreparable harm." The judge ruled that Dvortsin must submit a supporting legal brief by June 6, with government attorneys required to file a response by June 11. A hearing is set for June 13 at the Byron G. Rogers Courthouse in Denver. According to Fox News correspondent Bill Melugin, citing sources, El Gamal and her five children have all overstayed their visas. However, an asylum application had already been submitted on their behalf by Soliman. The central question is whether deportation should move forward in spite of the family's pending asylum claim. Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem has publicly addressed the detention and potential deportation of El Gamal and her five children. In a social media video on Tuesday, Secretary Noem confirmed that U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) had taken Soliman's family into custody. "Mohamed's despicable actions will be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law, but we're also investigating to what extent his family knew about this horrific attack," Noem said in the X post. "If they had any knowledge of it or if they provided any support to it." The Boulder attack triggered a political firestorm in Washington and Colorado, as Republican lawmakers have slammed it as a lack of immigration enforcement through sanctuary policies and poor management during the Biden administration. "This is a direct result of failed sanctuary states like Colorado and California," Rep. Gabe Evans, R-Colo., said in the aftermath of the attack. "For the sake of our state, Democrats MUST stop putting illegals ahead of Americans. There are lives on the line." Meanwhile, Colorado Gov. Jared Polis’ office said they were never aware of any threat from the suspect. "The reality is that Colorado is not a sanctuary state and state, federal and local law enforcement work together closely to apprehend criminals, whether they are from this country or not," a spokesperson for Polis’ office told Fox News Digital, adding that the governor "expects to see the suspect prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law." "There were no requests from federal law enforcement agencies regarding this individual, and if there had been then the state would have eagerly cooperated. Reports indicate that this person’s legal presence ended in March, nearly three months ago, and we are not aware of any attempt by any federal agency to deport him," the spokesperson added. In addition, some Democrats in Colorado also faced scrutiny for attending a fundraiser with Rep. Ilhan Omar, D-Minn., in nearby Denver roughly 30 minutes after the attack, as she has had a past history of anti-Semitic remarks and intense criticism of Israel.
