USAID paperwork found in car of ‘terror’ suspect who targeted Jews

Court filings regarding the Egyptian national suspected of perpetrating an antisemitic attack in Colorado noted an unspecified detail about a federal agency accused of fraud and abuse.

On Sunday, in Boulder, Colorado, illegal alien Mohamed Sabry Soliman was arrested before being charged with a federal hate crime alongside numerous state charges for allegedly attacking a group raising awareness about Israeli hostages held by Hamas. Along with a reported admission that he would commit the crime again, the affidavit indicated Soliman’s car contained papers with the words “Israel,” “Palestine,” and “USAID.”

The affidavit explained the 2015 Toyota Prius registered to Soliman contained “red material consistent with the rags found in the black plastic container [near where the suspect was arrested that held Molotov cocktails]; a red gas container;” and the paperwork of which no further explanation was provided.

After eight people were injured in the attack, the suspect was charged with a federal hate crime and state charges that included 16 counts of attempted first-degree murder, six counts of first-degree assault on an at-risk victim, two counts of possession of an incendiary device, and 16 counts of attempted possession of an incendiary device

“He specifically targeted the ‘Zionist Group’ that had gathered in Boulder, having learned about the group from an online search,” read the federal affidavit that reported Soliman had said he left his smartphone hidden with messages to his family and that there was a journal at his house. “He stated that he wanted to kill all Zionist people and wished they were all dead.”

While it remains unknown what if any connection the suspect may have had with the U.S. Agency for International Development — and a State Department official told Fox News Digital Soliman was not employed by the agency — it is known that Soliman entered the U.S. on a visa in 2022 and did not leave after it expired in February 2023. Instead, he filed a claim with U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services in March 2023 that authorized him to work until March 2025.

White House Deputy Chief of staff Stephen Miller described the situation by stating, “He was granted a tourist visa by the Biden administration, and then he illegally overstayed that visa. In response, the Biden administration gave him a work permit. Suicidal migration must be fully reversed.”

As it happens, the report of paperwork denoting USAID discovered among the suspect’s belongings came only days after U2 frontman Bono was called out over his claim that shutting off USAID funding resulted in the deaths of 300,000 people.

While podcast host Joe Rogan asserted, “It was a money laundering operation,” others pointed out that the figures were speculative about the potential impact, not literal.

Now, as Soliman is being held on a $10 million bond, reactions to the affidavit details couldn’t help but remind that the wannabe-assassin of Butler, Pennsylvania, who fired upon President Donald Trump and his supporters, killing rally-goer Corey Comperatore, had once appeared in a BlackRock advertisement.
