Illegal migrant accused of shooting Jewish man heading to Chicago synagogue charged with hate crime, terrorism
|
[NYPost] The illegal migrant who allegedly opened fire on a Jewish man walking to synagogue in reliably Democrat Chicago, aka The Windy City or Mobtown
...home of Al Capone, the Chicago Black Sox, a succession of Daleys, Barak Obama, and Rahm Emmanuel...
last weekend was hit with new hate crime and terrorism charges on Thursday, according to authorities.
Sidi Mohammed Abdallahi, 22, was slapped with the additional charges after he allegedly shot and maimed a 39-year-old Jewish man Saturday morning in the city’s West Ridge neighborhood — and then got into an ensuing shootout with authorities leading up to his arrest.
Just before he exchanged gunfire with police, the alleged gunman reportedly shouted "Allahu Akbar." He was critically maimed in the shootout where medics were also caught in the crossfire. Abdallahi remained hospitalized on Thursday.
The victim fortunately did not sustain life-threatening injuries and no first responders were hurt.
Abdallahi was initially charged with counts of attempted murder, attempted murder of a police officer, aggravated battery and aggravated discharge of a firearm.
The lack of hate crime charges at the start of the case infuriated members of the Jewish community. But Snelling said Sherlocks needed time to firm up the felony count as a hate crime and terrorism charge.
"There must be sufficient evidence to support hate crimes and terrorism charges and it was important we took our time to thoroughly investigate and confirm that this was indeed a crime of that nature," he said. "We did not secure these charges because of public pressure or media attention."
Detectives combed through the suspect’s phone which showed he planned to target Jewish community members leading up to the shooting, Snelling added.
”Note to self: Make sure all I kill are actually juices, and not just Jooish looking Italians or Arabs or Russians. It’s really hard to tell sometimes — some of them look almost human.” A terrorism charge is rarely lodged, Cook County State Attorney Kim Foxx
...one of the so-called Soros DAs, though other Progressive Very Rich People also donate to the project... noted.
"We underscore the gravity of targeting specific communities with violence intended to intimidate or terrorize," she said. "This charge sends a clear message."
Mayor Brandon Johnson
...Hizzonner da Mare of Chicago. He was elected in April 2023 to replace the disastrous Lori Lightfoot and immediately set about out-Richtering her. A member of the Democratic Party (naturally), Johnson previously worked as a social studies teacher in the city's stellar public schools system. He helped organize the 2012 teachers strike. Prior to becoming Da Mare, he served on the Cook County Board of Boodlng Commissioners from 2018 to 2023...
, who was blasted earlier the week for not acknowledging that the victim was Jewish in an initial statement, called the hate directed at the Jewish community "hideous."
"There is absolutely no place in Chicago for antisemitism," Johnson said during the presser. "There’s no place in our city for hatred toward the Jewish community."
Sure there is. If there weren’t, you wouldn’t have equivocated in your first response. Abdallahi, who is from the West African country Mauritania,
…good to know. The initial description of his homeland as western North Africa was awfully vague… entered San Diego in March 2023 and was screened by border agents before he was released into the country, officials previously told The Post.
They do that a lot under the current administration. That’s why their union endorsed President Trump. When the migrant was caught at the border last year, authorities didn’t find any criminal or terrorist histories linked to him, sources said.
Except that he broke the law when he entered the country… Abdallahi was due in court on Tuesday, but that’s been delayed because he remains in the hospital, Foxx said.
About anti-semitism in Chicago: | Newly appointed president of Chicago education board resigns amid uproar over antisemitic social media posts
[IsraelTimes] The newly appointed president of the Chicago Board of Education has tendered his resignation after coming under fire for past antisemitic and conspiratorial social media posts.
The Chicago Sun Times reports that Rev. Mitchell Johnson’s decision came at the request of Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson (no relation).
A day earlier, the Chicago mayor had defended the embattled CBE president, saying he had “expressed sorrow and is seeking atonement.”
But the mayor apparently shifted his approach after Illinois Governor JB Pritzker joined the super-majority of Chicago council members who called for Johnson’s ouster.
Many of Johnson’s most controversial posts — uncovered by Jewish Insider — came amid Hamas’s October 7 onslaught and the ensuing war in Gaza.
“People have an absolute right to attack their oppressors by any means necessary,” he wrote in one post.
“My Jewish colleagues appear drunk with the Israeli power and will live to see their payment,” Johnson said in another.
Johnson had been sworn in by the Chicago mayor just last week.
