Trump warns attacks on Jewish interests 'WILL NOT BE TOLERATED'

State criminal charges are being filed by prosecutors against Mohamed Sabry Soliman, the 45-year-old Egyptian national who is in the United States illegally and is accused of launching a flamethrower and Molotov cocktail attack on participants of a "Run for their Lives" event in Boulder, Colorado, in support of the hostages held by the terrorists in Hamas.

Now he's facing a federal "hate crime" charge, too.

Soliman was taken into custody immediately after the attack on marchers in Boulder Sunday, who had been protesting in support of the hostages in the Middle East.

Authorities in Boulder said the suspect arrived at the rally after noon on Sunday, "waited for participants to begin their walk," then throwing incendiary devices at them, "igniting a fireball that left multiple victims with serious burns.

He also allegedly had an improvised flamethrower to use, as well as 16 additional unlit Molotov cocktails and a backpack sprayer filled with gasoline in his care.

A Washington Examiner report said Soliman is being charged with "violating 18 U.S.C. §§ 249(a)(1) and (a)(2), federal hate crime statutes involving acts of violence motivated by actual or perceived religion or national origin"

Various state charges also are pending.

Twelve people were injured as they were attacked by a suspect shouting "Free Palestine."

The report said, "According to an FBI affidavit filed Monday, Soliman confessed after his arrest that he researched how to make Molotov cocktails on YouTube, purchased the materials, and traveled to Boulder specifically to attack the event."

"He stated that he wanted to kill all Zionist people and wished they were all dead," the affidavit said.

President Donald Trump said such hate "WILL NOT BE TOLERATED" in the U.S., blaming Joe Biden's open borders strategy for allowing him in.

Assistant Attorney General Harmeet Dhillon told the Examiner, "The Department of Justice has swiftly charged the illegal alien perpetrator of this heinous attack with a federal hate crime and will hold him accountable to the fullest extent of the law. Our prayers are with the victims and our Jewish community across the world.":

Soliman came into the U.S. on a tourist visa in 2022, and then sought asylum while staying in the country illegally. The Biden administration later gave him a work permit.
