Attack in Boulder, Colorado, burns 12 people at march for Israeli hostages, officials say; suspect charged
colorado
Updated on: June 2, 2025 / 3:19 PM MDT / CBS Colorado
A suspect is in custody after what the FBI is calling a "targeted act of violence" during a peaceful march in support of Israeli hostages at the outdoor Pearl Street Mall in Boulder, Colorado, on Sunday.
Witnesses said the suspect used a "makeshift flamethrower" and threw Molotov cocktails that burned multiple victims, police and the FBI said. Boulder police initially said eight people were injured; they raised the total to 12 on Monday afternoon after officials said four more people with less serious injuries came forward.
The suspect was identified as 45-year-old Mohamed Sabry Soliman, FBI Special Agent in Charge Mike Michalek said Sunday evening. Soliman was allegedly heard yelling "Free Palestine" during the attack, according to Michalek, who said that it was "clear this is a targeted act of violence" and it is being investigated as an act of terrorism.
Soliman has been charged with multiple felony counts, including attempted murder, and a federal hate crimes charge.
Soliman learned how to make Molotov cocktails after he was “denied the purchase of a gun due to him not being a legal citizen.” He had previously taken a concealed-carry class and learned to shoot a gun.
Soliman was born in Egypt but lived in Kuwait for 17 years, according to the warrant. He moved to Colorado Springs three years ago. He was in the US illegally, according to the DHS.
The victims: Authorities said the number of victims has risen to 12 after four additional victims came forward. Two people remain in the hospital, they added.
Soliman has been charged with multiple felony counts, including attempted murder, and a federal hate crimes charge.

AI Overview
The US-Mexico border is commonly referred to as "the border" or "the U.S.-Mexico border". It's also sometimes called "the Mexican border". In the state of Texas, a significant portion of the border is defined by the Rio Grande river. The Rio Grande forms a natural boundary, with the border following the river's middle channel.

I was down on the border you speak of, not too long ago. Didn't see any real problems. Heavier police presence than there used to be. Other than that, business as usual.
The term "Crisis" that you love to throw around doesn't seem to apply. There are some problems, no doubt, but not insoluble ones. The "Crisis" seems to be mainly the usual paranoid right-wing make-believe. Create an imaginary problem, and then get people to hate their neighbours who are supposed to be at the root of the imaginary problem.

House Republican Leadership Statement on Senate Immigration Bill
February 5, 2024
WASHINGTON, D.C. — Conference Chairwoman Stefanik, Speaker Johnson, Majority Leader Scalise, and Majority Whip Emmer issued the following statement regarding the Senate’s immigration bill:
“House Republicans oppose the Senate immigration bill because it fails in every policy area needed to secure our border and would actually incentivize more illegal immigration.
“Among its many flaws, the bill expands work authorizations for illegal aliens while failing to include critical asylum reforms. Even worse, its language allowing illegals to be ‘released from physical custody’ would effectively endorse the Biden ‘catch and release’ policy.
The so-called ‘shutdown’ authority in the bill is anything but, riddled with loopholes that grant far too much discretionary authority to Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas – who has proven he will exploit every measure possible, in defiance of the law, to keep the border open.
“The bill also fails to adequately stop the President’s abuse of parole authority and provides for taxpayer funds to fly and house illegal immigrants in hotels through the FEMA Shelter and Services Program.
“Because President Biden has refused to utilize his broad executive authority to end the border catastrophe that he has created, the House led nine months ago with the passage of the Secure the Border Act (H.R. 2). That bill contains the necessary components to actually stem the flow of illegals and end the present crisis. The Senate must take it up immediately.

There was NO ERROR by me on the English and grammar of my posts or the Title in recent days. There are SEVERAL CRISES caused by Biden's policies, actions, and Executive Orders. And further, the crisis initially caused by Biden's (essentially) open US-Mexico border allowed OTHER CRISES to develop, grow, and metastasize under Biden and Mayorkas and Kamala.
By the way, O wise one, I passed my English Proficiency Exams; they are called the SAT and the GRE.
Continued to be annoyed because YOU made at least one error; Jesus noir needs to check for HIS errors.

Your country spends $100 billion a year on all aspects of the border issues, including policing and incarceration, as well as some half-hearted assistance to the migrants.
You spend more than $1 trillion (about 10 times as much, in case you've forgotten your math) on military preparations to destabilize regimes you don't approve of and bomb helpless villagers in Third-World countries.
If you're worried about homeless veterans, maybe buy a couple fewer nukes this year and put up a couple of subsidized apartment buildings.
You could EASILY buid housing for every single unhoused person in your country, hell, in the entire Western Hemisphere. You CHOOSE to spend the money on weapons of mass destruction.
It's not a "Crisis", it's a matter of priorities.
AI Overview
Estimates for the number of undocumented migrants in Canada vary, but range from 200,000 to 700,000. Some sources suggest it could be as high as 500,000. These individuals are often employed in sectors like construction, caregiving, and domestic services.
In 2023, Canada welcomed 471,808 immigrants, a 7.8% increase from 2022. Immigrants now make up 23.0% of the Canadian population, the highest share in over 150 years. This rise is largely due to a record number of recent immigrants between 2016 and 2021, despite border restrictions in 2020.

Do you want more, Duk? Do you want immigrants to vie or even take YOUR job? OR suppress wages further so you get paid LESS?

And do you advocate for OPEN borders, like Biden did for the US-Mexico border, so that you can hire a gardener or more hotel workers?
These claims were not simply untrue but preposterous.
Biden’s actual FY 2024 record of 272,000 removals was over twice DHS’s claimed number of 135,000 removals during its first 100 days. So by no means had this administration’s claimed record “already surpassed the entirety of Fiscal 2024.”
Feds: Tennessee Highway Patrol suspected Abrego-Garcia of being involved in human/labor trafficking
A couple hours later Attorney General Pam Bondi released several pages of documents she says proves Abrego-Garcia's MS-13 membership.
In those documents, a Prince George's County Police Gang Unit explained how Abrego-Garcia's wearing of a Chicago Bulls hat and hoodie, signifies a certain credo within MS-13.
"The meaning of the clothing is to represent "ver, oir y callar" or "see no evil, hear- no evil and say no evil," detectives wrote. "Wearing the Chicago Bulls hat represents that they are a member in good standing with the MS-13."
Thousands fill the streets, block freeway in Los Angeles after Trump deploys National Guard
Deployment follows days of protest
The arrival of the National Guard followed two days of protests that began Friday in downtown Los Angeles before spreading on Saturday to Paramount, a heavily Latino city south of the city, and neighboring Compton.
As federal agents set up a staging area Saturday near a Home Depot in Paramount, demonstrators attempted to block Border Patrol vehicles, with some hurling rocks and chunks of cement. In response, agents in riot gear unleashed tear gas, flash-bang explosives and pepper balls.
Feds mobilize the National Guard as riots over immigration raids wreak havoc on Los Angeles
Images and video showed a chaotic scene on Saturday as hundreds of protesters filled the streets and clashed with federal agents in riot gear attempting to impede apprehensions by Border Patrol in Paramount, California, near a Home Depot.
The dystopian scene showed the heavily armored agents firing teargas canisters in order to disperse demonstrators who raged for hours on Saturday in a messy and tumultuous street takeover.
One violent protester in a face-covering helmet hurled rocks at the windows of cars right outside the super store — cracking some Border Patrol pick-up trucks in the windshield, according to viral video.
ICE agents driving one of those vehicles suffered injuries after rocks left a huge gash in both the windshield and the hand of one of the federal law enforcement officials, video obtained by Fox News showed.
Border Patrol Chief Michael W. Banks reported that “several arrests” have been made for assault on a federal agent, according to a post on X Saturday.
Protesters arrested and cars set on fire as Los Angeles demonstrations intensify
What we're covering
• Protesters arrested: The Los Angeles Police Department began making arrests after declaring several protests “unlawful” assemblies and authorizing the use of “less lethal munitions.” CNN field crews have witnessed mounted officers working to disperse demonstrators as well as officers striking and pushing protesters and deploying flash-bangs and tear gas into the crowd. At least two Waymo self-driving cars have been set on fire.
• LA deployment: About 300 National Guardsmen are deployed at three locations around Los Angeles, the California governor’s office said this morning. It follows a presidential memorandum signed by President Donald Trump calling up 2,000 National Guardsmen to protect federal personnel and property at protests sparked by immigration raids – the first time a president has called in the National Guard without a state’s request or consent since 1965. And 500 active-duty Marines are “prepared to deploy,” NORTHCOM said.
• Immigration crackdown: Immigration authorities and demonstrators have clashed for three days in the Los Angeles area, with unrest beginning Friday after dozens of people were detained by federal immigration agents across different locations.
• Trump and Newsom: California Gov. Gavin Newsom called Trump on Friday, and they spoke for approximately 40 minutes, according to the governor’s office. Trump has claimed, without evidence, that he was forced to step in because California Democratic officials, including Newsom, were incapable of stopping the protests themselves.

White House: Trump 'rightfully stepped in to restore law and order'
The White House has said that President Donald Trump "rightfully stepped in to restore law and order because of Gavin Newsom's feckless leadership and his refusal to stop the violent attacks on American law enforcement".
White House spokesperson Abigail Jackson issued the statement after California Governor Gavin Newsom said that Trump's decision to deploy the National Guard to demonstrations was "purposefully inflammatory".
The White House statement continued: "It’s a bald-faced lie for Newsom to claim there was no problem in Los Angeles before President Trump got involved. Everyone saw the chaos, violence, and lawlessness – unless, of course, Gavin Newsom doesn’t think any of that is a problem.”
