Texas synagogue hostage taker demanding release of imprisoned sister
The Times of Israel ^ | 1/15/2022 | JACOB MAGID

Posted on 01/15/2022 1:34:18 PM PST by Brown Deer

The suspect in an apparent hostage situation at a Texas synagogue is identified as Muhammad Siddiqui by ABC News, which reports that he’s holding the rabbi of the congregation and three others hostage.

Siddiqui claimed during the livestream to be the brother of Aafia Siddiqui, a Pakistani national who was convicted in 2010 by a New York City Federal Court of attempting to kill US military personnel. She is currently serving an 86-year sentence at Federal Medical Center, Carswell in Fort Worth, Texas.

ABC, citing a source at the scene, says Siddiqui is demanding his sister’s release.

They’ve had at least three wars between. Neither can quite get the advantage over the other, however.

Release her after she’s served a nice, tasty pork BBQ.

Thanks for this pertinent info, which MSM will try to bury.

This concerned “brother” is no run-of-the-mill nutcase.

Since this is in Texas, maybe Dubya and Laura can provide some words of wisdom to this member of the “religion of pieces”.

The Falsifiers, Bolsheviks, and Imbeciles are all low-IQ tools of Satan.

They are as inherently dishonest as they are dangerous, and seek only to terrorize and attack We The People.

They are to their pedophile in the White House as the Securitate were to Ceaucescu.

May the Divine Wrath of Almighty God Smite them all straight to Hell for their evil ways.

Congressman says terrorists are crossing border ‘at a level we have never seen before,’ DHS says that’s ‘inaccurate’

Oct 30, 2021 5:00 pm By Robert Spencer 16 Comments

DHS Counterterrorism Coordinator John Cohen says: “It is just factually inaccurate to frame the southern border as a place where we are seeing a significant number of al-Qaida or ISIS-related terrorists or foreign terrorists.”

How many is “significant”?

“Official Slams Claims of Terrorists Infiltrating US From Mexico,” by Jeff Seldin, VOA News, October 28, 2021:

WASHINGTON — Fears the Taliban takeover of Afghanistan could reinvigorate terror groups like al-Qaida and Islamic State, and lead to a surge of attempted infiltrations along the southern U.S. border have not been realized, a top counterterrorism official said, dismissing claims to the contrary as “factually inaccurate.”

For months, mostly Republican lawmakers have warned of an unprecedented number of encounters by law enforcement and border patrol agents with known or suspected terrorists trying to enter the United States from Mexico.

One fact sheet distributed earlier this week by Republican Representative John Katko, the ranking member of the House Homeland Security Committee, warned terrorists “are crossing the border ‘at a level we have never seen before.’”

But the Department of Homeland Security’s top counterterrorism official rejected such allegations Thursday, telling an online forum there is no evidence to back them up.

The pedophile is too busy trying to remember what day of the week it is.

How could he possibly figure out what is going on in Texas, let alone know where Texas is?

Good question. Furthermore, he also has reportedly a brother here, an architect. Why bring them here?

Biden’s FBI will take this very seriously, since the victims likely are a part of his voter base.

Why Most Jews Voted for Biden
Nov 7, 2020, 12:21 AM

Because they are educated and informed. Because they leave QAnon and conspiracy theories to the uneducated and uninformed. They don’t eat what Fox News tells them and go to sleep happy, but check other sources and watch other channels. Democracy is important to them above all else. They cherish basic decency in human interaction. They oppose fascism and racism. They believe that immigrants should get a fair shake at the American Dream. They rather have peace than go to war. Freedom and liberty for all isn’t just a slogan for them, but a belief. They would like to exercise freely their religion, not suffer from anti-Semitism constantly. And so on.

All these things are basic beliefs for them and come even before Israel. Important as Israel is to them, it‘s no longer the sole reason for their existence. What the current occupant of the White House (not for long, the way things look now) fails to understand is that while moving the American embassy to Jerusalem was generally a cause of guarded joy and satisfaction to most American Jews, it did not alter their negative view of him. Nor, they realized, did it solve or advanced the cause of peace with the Palestinians, or generate an avalanche – to say the least – of other countries moving their embassies to Jerusalem. It changed nothing.

The same holds true in regard to declaring Israel’s sovereignty over the Golan Heights. Other than gaining Trump a place to call ‘Trump Heights’ with a nice golden sign but no houses or people living there, it has achieved nothing. It changed nothing. It didn’t bring closer an agreement between Israel and Syria not one inch. As with Jerusalem, it simply created a momentary cloud of ‘golden’ dust, avoiding the real issue: The conflict between Israel and the Palestinians. Jews are not stupid, as implied above, and they saw it right away.

Just as they saw and realized that the semi, ‘fake peace’ with the United Arab Emirates, Bahrain, and other such sheikdoms – which were never at war with Israel in the first place, and for quite some time entertained close links with Israel – will fail to advance the cause of peace with the Palestinians, or push them closer to an acceptable resolution. It’s all sand in the air, not supported by the majority of these undemocratic countries and their oppressed citizens. Likewise Sudan, which was blackmailed to sign the deal (as reported in The Guardian by Nesrine Malik, 10/25/20), and in return was taken off the list of state sponsoring of terrorism, together with the promise of billions of dollars. Not surprising, therefore, as reported here yesterday, that all three states joined a UN General Assembly resolutions critical of Israel.

It’s the same way Trump deals with the coronavirus pandemic: treating cancer as if it was an ulcer. Avoiding the real issue and throwing empty promises in the air. Most Jews realized that from the outset and behaved responsibly, suffering minimal casualties as result, other than the ultra-orthodox communities (Trumps’ greatest supporters). His other fervent supporters, among America’s ‘white supremacy’ throngs, didn’t and still don’t realize that – i.e. the full severity of the global pandemic – and as result, they are paying a hefty price for it. This president, an imbecilic dictator-in-the-making, has no business leading the most powerful country – if it’s still the most powerful country – in the world.
