Original Social Media Post

"One more thing. Today is a mournful day for me. 12 years ago, my cousin, Mohammed Abu-Khdier, was kidnapped from his home in East Jerusalem by three Jewish settlers. He was beaten with tire irons, doused in gasoline, forced to drink gasoline, and then burnt alive. I’ll never forget his death, I remember the night when his body was discovered, Mohammad’s mother called my mother. We were both in the living room, and I could hear the poor woman shrieking and crying in grief from across the room. What is worse, is not just the murder, but the humiliations that the Jews brought to the family: within a week, Israel police had ‘leaked rumors’ to Israeli media that Mohammad was actually killed by his own family members for supposedly being a homosexual. Both claims being obviously untrue, and were very humiliating to his family. Then, during his funeral, IDF detained another one of his relatives, Tariq, an American citizen from Florida. They dragged him into an alley and stomped this poor 15 year old kid unconscious. We know about this because there is recorded video of them doing it, and Tariq was even interviewed by George Stephanopolous. I will never forget, I will never forgive. I wrote an article about his death on my substack two years ago, I hope you’ll read it, it’ll be below. May God have mercy on your soul, Mohammed." - Source
