Violent and anti-Semitic. Wow, I’m totally stumped. Is Khaled Awad a white supremacist? After all, what other ideology inculcates violence and anti-Semitism?
“College Roommates Of Khaled Awad, Suspect In Brighton Rabbi Stabbing, Say He Was ‘Very Much Anti-Semitic,’” by Kristina Rex, CBS, July 2, 2021:
BRIGHTON (CBS) – College roommates of Khaled Awad, the man accused of stabbing Rabbi Shlomo Noginski eight times outside a Jewish school in Brighton Thursday, say he was “violent” and “very much anti-Semitic”….
Prosecutors said Awad has no record in Massachusetts, but has faced charges of battery and theft in Florida and was sent to a mental health facility there….
His former college roommates and friends at the University of Southern Florida, where he studied chemical engineering until very recently, say Awad had showed a propensity for violence.
“He started becoming violent,” said Eric Valiente, a friend of Awad’s.
His roommate Aidan says he and Awad were friends until Awad attacked him in their shared kitchen on day, prompting Aidan to move out and get a restraining order.
“We were friends, to be honest with you. I’m Jewish. And he knew that since I moved in,” said Aidan Anderson, the suspect’s former roommate.
Aidan and Eric say Awad’s beliefs towards certain cultures became evident early on.
“He was very much anti-Semitic. He would say like all types of Jewish jokes. I thought he was joking at first and then I started to see seriousness in his comments,” said Eric.
After the assault in fall of 2020, the friend distanced themselves from Khaled, but still say they’re shocked he would go so far as to assault a stranger with a weapon.
“He disgusted me at that point. I wanted nothing to do with the guy. At this point, I was a little scared of him. I was scared of what he was capable of because I realize he was a very dark person,” said Eric….

Why didn’t he report his former roommate to the police? Had it been a white guy, there would have been no hesitation in reporting his behavior.

Meanwhile the mysterious freak who murdered two residents of nearby Winthrop, MA, apparently just because of their color is being roundly denounced as a “white supremacist”. Which he unquestionably was, given the material discovered in his apartment and a backpack.
But call Khaled Awad an “Islamic supremacist”? Fat chance.

Vicky,
The late Philip Haney wrote an excellent book regarding your point:
“See Something, Say Nothing: A Homeland Security Officer Exposes the Government’s Submission to Jihad” Hardcover – May 24, 2016
Very sad – but very true…
GreekEmpress says
I wonder if we’ll ever see Mr. Haney’s second book.
Or find out who really killed him

I imagine Eric Valiente would have been castigated as “Islamophobic” had he admitted at the time to being afraid of Awad..

Vicky : I am a Canadian Christian guy originally from Iraq and my ancestors said it hundreds of years ago “ If a Muslim is a piece of gold, then don’t put it into your pocket otherwise it will rip through “ meaning when the Muslim gets the chance and ability to harm nonMuslims, they would do it especially after taking Islam seriously abs Christian of Iraq after the fall of Saddam’s bloody regime are the best example of Muslims’ backstabbing Christians at the back . Any nice abs peaceful Muslim out there , they are nice and peaceful UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE ..

The awful and terrible reality is all those jihadist /Muslims who engage in brutal harsh murderous actions are not engaging in a “hijacked of warped” as the apologists for Islam always claim in an attempt to cover-up and hide the violent and deadly truth about this religion.
The hard fact is murdering jihadists acting in accord to the instructions of the Qu ‘ran to engage in violence and killing of “disbelievers” for Islam, as seen in ,for example, Surah 2:191. 4:89. 5:33.9:5, 111,112, 123. 47:4.
Therefore the claim that Islam is a non-violent peaceful religion is a false claim.
