We've accepted #terrorists into all nations.
It's mearly a question of flavors and devalueing humanity using terrorist methods of #martyr and #hostage. No one is really safe from #terrorism anymore, anywhere.
"Such beauty! This is what happens to whoever brings food to Hamas" Judeonazi settlers in West Bank blocked two Palestinian trucks, claiming they carry Gaza aid, threw rocks at the drivers, wounding one of them, and destroyed goods. No arrests were made. State-backed terrorists. https://x.com/ireallyhateyou/status/1790807200933318876
Woman pleads guilty to conspiring with neo-Nazi leader to attack energy grid
A Maryland woman admitted to scheming with a neo-Nazi leader from Florida to destroy electrical substations surrounding Baltimore in an attack that she told a confidential FBI source would be “legendary” and “probably permanently completely lay this city to waste.”
Settlers mobs south of #AlKhalil in the #WestBank set fire to the aid trucks that they stopped and damaged this afternoon, which were loaded with aid and headed to the #Gaza Strip.
No sign of Israeli police of IDF to protect the convoy or stop the terrorists settlers from destroying aid packages, mostly baby formula, diapers and medical equipment.
Earlier today, Israeli settlers launched an attack on the #UNRWA headquarters in occupied #Jerusalem, setting fire to its surroundings. Israeli authorities have not intervened or made any arrests among the Israeli attackers.
That's why normalized #terrorism is pushing hard on social media the past decade. Building tunnels.
The sympathy terrorists will be ready to take hostage and use martyr, extracting demands as we collectively accept the devalue of #humanity.
New News: A new lawsuit alleges that people in the US with longstanding ties to Hamas have formed shell groups that are supporting US campus protests.
The lawsuit is filled with explosive allegations and seeks compensatory damages.
DEFENDANTS: The two groups named in the lawsuit -- American Muslims for Palestine (AMP) and National Students for Justice in Palestine (NSJP) -- are being sued by 9 American and Israeli victims. The lawsuit alleges that AMP and NSJP are effectively the same entity -- and, unbeknownst to many US student activists, are acting as a propaganda arm to Hamas.
It was filed by a legit law firm.
They claim to have written, admissible-in-court evidence of one of the groups acknowledging they have to be careful not to be seen supporting terrorism.
Through this lawsuit we could learn more about sources of funding tied to student protests.
TERROR TIES INQUIRY: The case was brought in Virginia, where the plaintiffs say that AMP operates (Falls Church). The suit alleges that AMP formed and raises funds through AJP Educational Foundation (AJP), a U.S.-based non-profit. In October 2023, the Commonwealth of Virginia began to investigate that non-profit, AJP, for “”potential violations of Virginia’s charitable solicitation laws,” including “benefitting or providing support to terrorist organizations.””
STUDENTS FOR JUSTICE IN PALESTINE: The lawsuit alleges that NSJP (the national entity) receives funds through a fiscal sponsor, Westchester People’s Action Committee Fund (“WESPAC”), a New York-based non-profit. Plaintiffs claim that, “This arrangement enables NSJP to collect and distribute funds without transparency.”
ALLEGATIONS: One of things they cite is an NSJP toolkit that they say was disseminated on October 8, one day after the October 7 massacre. They claim the toolkit contained “a manifesto” and “materials that appear to have been created before the [october 7] attack.” They allege the groups “identify themselves as “PART of” a “Unity Intifada,” governed by Hamas’s “unified command” of terrorist operations in Gaza.”
QUESTIONS: Just to be clear, there is no allegation in the lawsuit that student protesters are aware of any alleged direct ties to any known terror organization.
I have many questions: How strong is the evidence of direct ties, is it more than circumstantial? Do these plaintiffs have standing to bring this suit? If these allegations are true, this is a very big idea - so who else knew? Who is financing these groups and are they under investigation beyond what’s already public?
Threats from drones must cause headaches for security people at all large public events nowadays , technology developed on the battlefields of Ukraine can easily be applied by terrorists in an urban context. #drones#geopolitics#terrorism
