'I'm fine': Tragic final words of Palestinian boy Wadea Al-Fayoume, 6, who was killed for being Muslim: Landlord is charged with stabbing him 26 times with 12-inch serrated knife

The heartbroken father of a six-year-old Palestinian boy stabbed to death by his landlord in a hate-crime fueled by the Hamas-Israel war has revealed that his brave son's final words were 'I'm fine.'

Wadea Al-Fayoume, six, was killed on Sunday, allegedly by landlord Joseph M. Czuba, 71, who was renting the family a room in his home in Plainfield, Illinois.

The boy's mother, Hanan Shaheen, survived the attack and told police later how Czuba appeared at their door spouting hateful, anti-Muslim slurs.

He tried to choke Shaheen, who fled inside and called 911, then produced a knife on the mother and son. He plunged the serrated, military-style weapon into Shaheen more than a dozen times, and stabbed the boy 26 times.

Czuba was arrested outside the house.

Wadea's father, Oday Al-Fayoume, has spoken out, explaining that his son and ex-wife knew the landlord and had even shared a 'good relationship' with him before the horrific attack.

'It is hard to picture this man holding a knife about to stab my son,' he said.

'I keep thinking that my son was probably running towards him before getting stabbed, trying to give him a hug.'

Paying tribute to his young son, Oday told The Daily Beast that Wadea was 'basically a small angel in the form of a person'.

Wadea's mom suffered more than a dozen stab wounds. She remained hospitalized Sunday but is expected to survive.

Speaking at a press conference on Sunday, the boy's uncle, Yousef Hannon said: 'We are not animals, we are humans.

'We want people to see us as humans, to feel us as humans, to deal with us as humans, because this is what we are.'

The family moved to the US from the West Bank twelve years ago. Wadea was born in the US.

I believe a man stabbed a child in Illinois

That’s about it.

Everything else the state-run media tells me is political spin, fake-narrative and BS, designed to elicit a very particular response

I wish we could get the full story

I have seen first hand how someone became addicted to pot and was very difficult to be around when said person had withdrawals.

that said, I sure wish I could access edibles for pain relief

What kind of sick POS murders a child.

Perp was a heavy pot smoker and on numerous occasions before this, was friendly to the child, often gave him toys to play with, etc.. (per interviews on the local Chicago news affiliates.)

Something snapped with this guy. One of the TV Stations (IIRC, WGN Channel 9) had a reporter stand on a latter in the boys back yard and take a shot of all the pot plants growing in the perps yard. Paranoia is one of the side effects from heavy pot smoking, as I've read.

(NOT a pot smoker here.)

There are no people here who think palestinian children should be executed for any reason. Stop making things up to make yourself look virtuous. Please provide examples of the shocking comments you have read if you intend to have credibility.

All the virtue signalling in the world isn’t going to keep the msm from having a field day with this.

Bidenflation made the murderer use a cheap knife, too bad I wasn’t there to take care of the perp like Bill Hickok would have.

The children are now innocent, however, what happens when they grow up? Do they become peaceful or do they carry on with the evil ways?

There are plenty of people here that believe innocent children in gaza should be executed if not jewish. it has been shocking for me to read these kinds of comments. I guess the thinking is that there are no innocent children in gaza. I just can’t follow that line of thinking.

What's to "follow"? The simple truth of the matter is, what this most recent atrocity in Israel has revealed is that there is a non-de minimis number of posters on this forum who are pretty much everything the Left imagines them to be -- i.e., grotesque, dumbshit, low-life racists whose blood is now up, and so they're vomiting out their vicious bile in self-satisfaction of their own bloodlust.

This disgusts me, but I don't find it "shocking" at all. Among my somewhat older boomer acquaintances (I'm in my early 60s myself), I see this sort of behavior, and hear this sort of ugliness uttered, whenever this sort of thing happens. They can't help but tell on themselves, even as they remain perplexed as to why the world seems to have now passed them by.

That's all that's going on here.

Killed a kid…..
What an @sshat.
Deserves death penalty, or worse.

No reason to kill a child for his religious affiliations, he isn’t of age of consent, unless he is trying to kill you.
