Antisemitic !??

So is the IDF daily killings of Palestinians in Palestine.

The killing or harming of any human being is WRONG, CRUEL, and DISGUSTING, this coward attacked other human being for what ever reasons he had and has NOTHING to do with Semitics simply because all Arabs are Semites.

Of course, when you have open borders for years, many bad "hombres" including terrorists now roaming streets of America, not to mention gang members, drug dealers and many other hardened criminals etc.

Gangs like TDA, now designated as terrorists, had a huge presence in Colorado. Trump Admin now busy rounding up and deporting these bad hombres and naturally, they're not all simply waving white flags!

Hamas supporting terrorist.

-15 ( +8 / -23 )

All very vague stuff here with some nasty aspersions cast. Could even be a false flag fire? Certainly the claim that there's been a "spike" in antisemitic violence in the US merely based on one attack in Washington seems without merit. The spike we all can see is actually in Gaza.

The people who are marching for the hostages are protesting Netanyahu and his removal from office. These are not the ones rallying for genocide

A large Muslim organisation has called for a fatwa against Israel.

Other Muslim groups , including a major and influential group based in Egypt are calling for restraint.

BTW why didnt this group attacked in Boulder Colorado, do their protesting outside Israeli embassies and the like ?

Israel is conducting a full blown genocide and ethnic cleansing....the whole world is angry to the point of being inflammable.

Not good, but thats the way things are.

And dont involve children in demonstrations where the potential for violence is high.

disgusting victim blaming.

Cool, coddle the suspect and blame the victims set on fire because of their beliefs. This is the type of World we live in I guess.

-1 ( +9 / -10 )

And of course the usuals are here supporting such a person by trying to justify what he has done 

There is no justification for terrorism, just as there is no justification for genocide.

The left supports and glorifies violence against people who don’t share their beliefs or politics.

whatever happens is seen as “deserved” and justified. If only you didn’t think “wrong” or if you “werent there” it wouldn’t have happened! Even violence against American citizen kids.

it’s sickening.

The fascist supports and glorifies violence against people who don’t share their beliefs or politics. It is sickening.

Islamic terrorist hate attacks like this are based on religion and not on left or right politics. He didn't have a gun or use a car like in other attacks. The use of Molotov cocktails as a weapon is rare. Naked waist up. Mental problems, maybe.

It can take much longer to recover from severe burns than from a gunshot wound.

All terrorist attacks and all hate crimes are wrong and not acceptable in our society.

Run for their lives....OK organisation focused SOLEY on Israeli hostages., silent on the Palestinian hostages and silent on the carnage being waged by Israel

Now, we have seen what happens when US citizens and others protest the events in Gaza.

Secretive Jewish groups take images of the protestors , forward these to agencies like ICE or Uni admin and call for expulsion or deportation.

Anyone one else see the double standard that enables Jews protesting over others ?.

Right wingers statistically more violent and more likely to justify political violence.

Run for Their Lives is an organisation that runs to bring attention to the Israeli hostages in Gaza. Many countries with members. On this day, they were standing around and not running when attacked. How did the attacker know they would be there?

his daughter is a supposedly college student there in Colorado.

wonder what her visa status and her own “affiliations” might be?

Terrible.

Blame Israel.

All they have to do is stop the genocide.

“The Boulder terror suspect is an Egyptian national in the U.S. illegally as a visa overstay who entered the U.S. during the Biden administration,” Melugin reported.

So the Trump administration was too incompetent to catch him?

during the Biden administration

The man who is accused of the Boulder terror attack was in the U.S. illegally and entered into the country under the Biden admin on 8/27/22 through LAX

”Colorado man”?

Seems like the Biden administration let another one slip through the cracks, but he’s in custody, thank the lord!

All my comments mention Colorado, terrorism and rapidly rising US crime due to Biden's Admin's Open Borders, including terrorism.

It's number 1 reason Trump was elected in Nov, as US citizens want secure borders and vetted immigration, just like ALL other countries.

US has MANY global enemies and thus faces far more terrorism risk than almost any other country,

People of US remember September 11th well, thus understandable they want POTUS to take border security and terrorism seriously, including people of Colorado

So he had to do the damage before the useless Trump admin could find him?

Not very good at this, are they.

"The Boulder terror suspect is an Egyptian national in the U.S. illegally as a visa overstay who entered the U.S. during the Biden administration,” Melugin reported."

Letting all those illegal gangs was not a mistake but a deliberate move. They are used as the armed wing of the Democrats and without record they do what they are commanded to do by their handlers who holds their papers.

Trump has stated that fixing and securing the border is EASY, but arresting and deporting unvetted illegal aliens, especially criminals & terrorists DIFFICULT, takes time and entails serious risk to those in US Govt. doing so.

Terrorists now in US, including gang members, feeling huge pressure due to massively stepped Trump Admin immigration law enforcement and thus we can expect many more terrible crimes and terror to occur as a result, just like this Colorado incident or even sadly far worse.

Congress now deeply investigating how US borders were opened up illegally in the Biden Admin as a result, as US citizens want both Public SAFETY and ANSWERS

So he had to do the damage before the useless Trump admin could find him? Not very good at this, are they.

Kind of hard to do, Colorado being a sanctuary state and all.

SB 19-054 (2019) – Prohibits local law enforcement from holding individuals solely on immigration detainers without a warrant signed by a judge.

HB 19-1124 (2019) – Prevents state and local law enforcement from honoring ICE detainer requests or sharing personal information (like release dates) for immigration enforcement purposes.

Driver’s licenses for undocumented immigrants – Colorado allows undocumented residents to apply for a special type of state-issued driver’s license.

So yes, Biden’s disastrous immigration failures over the last 4 years are Trump’s mess sadly to fix.

So you hated deportation a week ago and now you are angry about it. Gotcha!

Now the 70000 women and children slaughtered along with the hundreds of thousands maimed and seriously wounded in Palestine won’t matter…Scum like Netanyahu must be laughing with glee at this attack!

Stupid move on the attackers behalf but with the western world just sitting by and letting the war criminals in Israel slaughter hundreds on a daily basis it is not in expected!

Sanction Israel Now!

Netanyahu to The Hague Now!

They could cut out the middleman and just turn their space lasers loose on the protestors.

Hopefully a lot more seriously than the government (was it red or blue?) of the day did when allowing those Saudis in to learn how to fly passenger jets but having no interest in learning how to land them.

Sadly, expect more lone-wolf and other terrorist groups to act within US sooner rather than later, as the Trump Immigration enforcement 'noose' is tightening fast

-5 ( +5 / -10 )

Interesting how none of those critical of my posts, or those extrapolating into "USA First, foreigners out " have bothered to comment on the 30 plus DEATHS, not possible burns , caused by IDF snipers targeting starving people seeking food in Gaza, on another story.

Some people not worthwhile it seems

Former FBI Director Wray was for YEARS talking in public to Congress about the elevated US terror risk, due to Biden open borders, so nobody should be surprised about Colorado, just drop in US 'terror' bucket

-7 ( +4 / -11 )

Director Wray stated MANY times in his many decades long career at FBI, that US terror risk during the Biden Admin was FAR higher than at any time in US history.

So many terror sleeper cells in the US, scary stuff indeed

-7 ( +4 / -11 )

There is a very simple way to end this. Israel should stop their genocide on Palestinians.
