Three Palestinian men shot in Vermont in possible hate crime, US authorities say

Not sure this is actually War on Terror. If subsequent information so indicates, this article will be moved to Lurid Crimes on Page 3: Non-WoT. [IsraelTimes] Shooter, a white man with a handgun who fired ’without speaking,’ expeditiously departed at a goodly pace; two of the victims were wearing black-and-white Paleostinian keffiyehs
That is, of course, an alleged white man. Unless and until convicted of the proper skin colour, we cannot know what shade he presents as ... or actually self-defines as, not to mention whether he self-defines or presents as male. Three young Paleostinian men were shot and injured in Burlington, Vermont, on Saturday while in the city for a Thanksgiving holiday gathering, in what may have been a hate crime, US authorities said Sunday.
One of the three was seriously hurt in the shooting near the University of Vermont.
The shooter has been identified only as a white man with a handgun, who, "without speaking... discharged at least four rounds" at the victims" before fleeing the scene, Burlington Police Chief Jon Murad said in a statement.
Murad said all three victims were of Paleostinian descent. Two are US citizens and one is a legal resident. Two of the men were wearing black-and-white Paleostinian keffiyeh scarves.
"The fact is that we don’t yet know as much as we want to right now. But I urge the public to avoid making conclusions based on statements from uninvolved parties who know even less," Murad said.
The American-Arab Anti-Discrimination Committee appeared more confident that the shooting was racially motivated, saying in a statement that the victims were Paleostinian American college students and that there was "reason to believe this shooting occurred because the victims are Arab."
The man shouted and harassed the victims, who were conversing in Arabic, then proceeded to shoot them, ADC said, in an apparent contradiction to the report that he shot without speaking.
The outbreak of the Israel-Hamas
 ...a regional Iranian catspaw,...
war — sparked by an onslaught by Hamas Death Eaters on southern Israel on October 7 in which over 1,200 people, most of them civilians, were slaughtered — has seen a major uptick in antisemitism in the US and around the world but Islamophobia
...the irrational fear that Moslems will act the way they usually do...
has also been on the rise as well. Last month, a 6-year-old Paleostinian-American boy was killed and his mother was maimed when a man entered their Illinois home and opened fire, targeting them because of their heritage, police said.
An FBI spokesperson said the agency was in touch with local law enforcement about Saturday’s incident in Vermont and was prepared to open its own probe if "information comes to light of a potential federal violation."
The Council on American-Islamic Relations
 ... the Moslem Brüderbund's American arm ...
has offered a $10,000 reward for information leading to the arrest or conviction of the person or people responsible for the shootings, the organization said in a statement.
The White House said US President Joe The Big Guy Biden
...46th president of the U.S. The very model of probity....
had been briefed on the incident and Bernie Sanders
...The only first openly Socialist member of the U.S. Senate. Sanders was Representative-for-Life from Vermont until moving to the Senate for the rest of his life in 2006, assuming the seat vacated by Jim Jeffords. He ran for the 2016 nomination for president, to be cheated out of it by Hillary Clinton, then went back to being an Independent socialist, waiting for 2020 to roll around...
— one of Vermont’s two US senators — condemned the "shocking and deeply upsetting" attack, saying he "looks forward to a full investigation."
