A would-be Palestinian suicide bomber was met with raucous applause as she appeared before University of California Berkeley law students.
Israa Jaabis, who was released from an Israeli jail in 2023 as part of a prisoner exchange for 26 hostages taken on October 7 of that year, made the virtual appearance as part of a 'teach-in' organized by the student-run UC Berkeley Students for Justice in Palestine.
The event, which came just one day before Israeli Independence Day, was described as a chance 'to hear experiences of Palestinian torture survivors and prisoners of conscience.'
But Jaabis was accused in 2015 of trying to ignite a gas tank in Jerusalem.
A police officer said at the time he spotted Jaabis driving in a commuter lane with no passengers, and when he spoke to her about the odd sight, Jaabis reportedly acted suspiciously, the Jerusalem Post reports.
The subsequent explosion then left Jaabis disfigured and the police officer burned.
An ensuing investigation revealed that Jaabis shouted 'Allahu Akbar' before the explosion and that she had handwritten notes showing support for people she described as 'Palestinian martyrs,' Israeli authorities said.
The officer involved in the attack even went as far as to call the incident an act of terrorism, according to the New York Post.
'You always hear of terrorist attacks and suddenly I am in one - boom - that's how it is,' he said.
The Palestinian Authority, however, claimed at the time that Israeli police fabricated the story as an excuse to attack the woman.
Jaabis also denied the charges as her family claimed that the fire started because of a faulty engine.
In a video from her speech on Monday, Jaabis told the students that their attendance at the event 'makes us hopeful that here remains some humanity.

A suicide bomber shows up ... kinda an oxymoron. She showed up in pieces?
I can’t imagine the contempt these terrorists must feel for the useful idiots applauding them.
Mind-boggling isn’t it?
Paging SoS Marco Rubio ...
Political Prisoners my ass. They are murderers, torturers, and rapists.
We don’t need RE-education camps. Just EDUCATION camps. Universities turning out such idiots should be ashamed of themselves.
“I can’t imagine the contempt these terrorists must feel for the useful idiots applauding them.”
I am sure Karl Marx is laughing in his grave at the useful idiots we called Fellow Citizens. Sometimes I wonder if the Founding Fathers ever considered that IQ’s would drop sharply and Communist Propaganda would rise exponentially.
IDIOTS! Strap a bomb to all of them and send them over there...
How did she get in the country?
virtual appearance
There’s good reasons to call that school “beserkeley.”
That was the first mistake.
In jail in Israel but is a celebrity in Kommiefornia. Yes. Typical. I hear Angela Davis is doing quite well, btw. Also in The People’s Toilet of Kalifornia.
bezerkeley has more evil per square mile than almost anywhere

What was she hoping from this? To become one of 72 virgins for a Muslim man?
