Ruba Almaghtheh - Domestic Terrorist

From Breitbart:
An Indiana woman was arrested Friday night after backing her car into a building used by a Black Hebrew Israelite hate group, thinking she was attacking a Jewish school on behalf of “her people back in Palestine.”

Ruba Almaghtheh, 34, was charged with criminal recklessness after being triggered by the Star of David on the building. The Jewish symbol has also been appropriated by the Black Hebrew Israelites.

...Some branches of the movement are explicitly antisemitic, the Times of Israel notes: “Extremist Hebrew Israelites can be found on street corners literally shouting their doctrine, which can include Holocaust denial, misogyny and anti-LGBTQ invective, at passersby.” Other parts of the movement are not antisemitic, and one branch settled in Israel in the 1960s.

The Indianapolis building was used by the Israelite School of Universal and Practical Knowledge, which the Anti-Defamation League calls an “extreme and antisemitic sect” of the movement.

Indianapolis-area WXIN Fox 59 reported:
Almaghtheh told officers she was watching news coverage of the Israel-Hamas war on television and decided to plan an attack on the building because she was offended by the “Hebrew Israelite” symbol on the front of the building.

Police said Almaghtheh passed by the building a couple times and called it the “Israel school.”

IMPD said she made reference to “her people back in Palestine” and told officers, “Yes. I did it on purpose.”
Good thing Biden and Harris are developing the "first-ever U.S. National Strategy to Counter Islamophobia in the United States."
