Gunman who shot Jewish man near Chicago synagogue is illegal migrant who targeted victim in antisemitic attack
New York Post ^ | October 30, 2024 | Jennie Taer and Joe Marino

Posted on 10/31/2024 7:10:24 AM PDT by PBRCat

The gunman who opened fire on a Jewish man walking to synagogue in Chicago is an illegal migrant from West Africa who was released into the US last year — and he targeted the victim because of his faith, law enforcement sources tell The Post.

Sidi Mohamed Abdallahi, 22 — who hails from Mauritania — crossed into San Diego in March 2023 and was screened by border agents, who quickly released him into the US, officials said.

Federal investigators believe Abdallahi was specifically targeting Jews in an antisemitic attack when he ambushed a 39-year-old Orthodox Jewish man in the city’s West Ridge neighborhood — which is home to several synagogues, sources said.

The gunman was then reportedly caught on video shouting “Allahu Akbar” before opening fire on police — who critically wounded him in a shootout.

The Cook County prosecutor has sparked outrage from the Windy City’s Jewish community after Abdallahi was not charged with a hate crime.

“… who hails from Mauritania…”

1. Can one actually “hail” from Mauritania?
2. Mauritania is actually the leading country involved in the modern slave trade.

Biden-Harris clowns have been importing Jihad into America. As if we didn’t have enough headaches. How inept and reckless the Democrats are!

Before you said it was a country I would have bought someone telling me it was one of the sister ships of the Titanic that also sank.

I officially could not find it on a map.

Biden/Harris were furthering Obama’s policies in doing so. Barack Hussein Obama wanted to spread Islam in the USA.

“Biden/Harris were furthering Obama’s policies in doing so. Barack Hussein Obama wanted to spread Islam in the USA.”

In his pre-teens He was raised and educated as a Muslim, while living in Indonesia. So what can one expect? I am still amazed that Americans went so soft, to elect this foreign Muslim saboteur, 7 years after the 911 attack.

In his school in Indonesia the students were a mix of religions. Obama went to Islam class at least once a week. Others students went to Catholic class etc.

Far Left Anti-Semitic WGN [Channel 9] reported the story as a Police Shooting - did not mention the Illegal shooting at a Jewish man until the end of the story.

I hope this wasn't a surprise to "law enforcement sources".

There’s another legitimate reason to claim one was facing persecution in Mauritania. I had female genital mutilation, apostasy from Islam, being homosexual. And now, escaping slavery.

Mauritania is not a country in conflict.

And anyone who makes it here has some resources, so he is not an escaped slave.

90% or more have to be young men looking for adventure and wealth, practicing Muslims claiming their bit of ground.

Unfair. He should have ambushed a 39-year-old Liberal -- or at least Reformed -- Democrat-voting Jewish man.

That would be karma.

“Mauritania is not a country in conflict.”

I think compared to its recent past, that is true, but it’s hardly stable.

It’s really been a dump since the Arabs invaded in the 1600s. During the middle ages, it was a bit of a shinning star for Africa. After the Arabs came in, not so much.

Every single one of these “Illegal migrant kills innocent American” stories have lost their shock value. When I see another one published, the only question that springs to mind is: “So? What is ANYONE going to do about it?” :: crickets ::
