#411 โ€“ Omar Suleiman: Palestine, Gaza, Oct 7, Israel, Resistance, Faith & Islam

It was actually their landlord. So Hanan, the mother, was at home with Wadir, six-year-old boy. Landlord comes in and with absolutely no emotion, just charges at her. Starts with her. She was able to fight him off. He stabbed her initially seven or eight times with a military grade knife. She fought him off, escaped to call 911. And while she's calling 911, she hears Wadir.

Wadir ran up to the man, calling him Uncle Joe. because the landlord prior to that had been kind to them. Used to give Wadir toys. Wadir had an infectious, beautiful smile. Every picture you see of that kid, beautiful, beautiful, beautiful smile. And so Wadir runs up to him, says, Uncle Joe, he runs up to him to give him a hug, even though he's carrying a military grade knife with blood on it.

Because Wadir doesn't believe that harm can come to him from that man. And Hanan didn't think that he would do anything to her kid. Even in that fit of rage, the last thing that she says she heard was, oh no. You know, Wadir says, oh no. And then he starts to stab him 26 times, says you Muslims must die. Usually in a scene like that, police are hesitant to classify something as a hate crime.

It was classified as a hate crime the very same day. The thing is, is that who's complicit in that hate crime? What filled that man's head for him to believe that he was doing an act of good by murdering a six-year-old Palestinian boy? And in reality, Uncle Joe was motivated by President Joe Biden, who repeated a debunked report that there were 40 beheaded Israeli babies.

And, you know, now, you know, just like any, any mom, you know, she hasn't moved the thing. His bike is still in the same place it was. Toys are still in the same place. She's left with this great void, this great emptiness. If that was the only crime, it would be enough. to wake this country up and say, oh no, this is not where we need to go. Oh no, right?

The last thing she heard him say was, oh no. If that was it, and I got the news, by the way, when I was ironically at a protest. We were protesting on Saturday, downtown Dallas, and I started getting all these texts about what happened in Chicago. Oh no, right? Like no Muslims attacked anyone. Media was in a frenzy over the global day of jihad.
