Colorado's hate-fueled firebomer: Letters

The Issue: An illegal migrant’s antisemitic terror attack on a rally for Israeli hostages in Boulder.

Mohamed Sabry Soliman is not a hate-fueled madman, he is a violent terrorist — nothing more, nothing less (“The man with an evil plan,” June 3).

How long will it take liberal Democrats in Washington to condemn this violence?

The liberal establishment in the country must now rise and publicly denounce antisemitism, and legacy media should follow suit. Remaining silent will only serve to bolster this animosity. Violence will inevitably occur, as predictably as night follows day.

Let Boulder not be forgotten; what happened there cannot be repeated elsewhere.

Sal Giarratani

Boston, Mass.

Again, this is cancerous hate manifested into an unspeakable act of terror. “Free Palestine” is now synonymous with “Kill Jews on American soil.”

Dave Charak

Boca Raton, Fla.

Unless more security is given to the Jewish community, I seriously doubt that the antisemitic attacks will end.

Even if Soliman is prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law, what good does it do?

He and others like him will gladly die for their cause — which is to exterminate all Jews and, if need be, die a martyr.

Can someone please tell me how to stop this madness?

JoAnn Lee Frank

Clearwater, Fla.

When US campuses reverberated with antisemitic chants, university presidents opted to hide behind the “free speech” argument. Now Soliman has traveled 100 miles to Boulder armed with Molotov cocktails, repeating those exact chants as he targeted Jews using a makeshift flamethrower.

Campus leaders failed to muster the courage to unequivocally and forcefully denounce calls for violence against Jews. Their silence did not signify neutrality — it provided individuals like Mohamed Sabry Soliman with tacit permission to commit such acts.

Todd Pittinsky

Port Jefferson

Four of the 9/11 hijackers overstayed their visas and were in the US illegally. The Egyptian who threw Molotov cocktails in Boulder, Colo. overstayed his visa and was here illegally.

Anyone who overstays their visa is a clear danger to the security of the United States and its law-abiding citizens.

Richard Sherman

Margate, Fla.

Everything happens in Colorado: The Columbine HS shooting, Tren De Aragua taking over an entire apartment building and now a lunatic antisemite throwing Molotov cocktails at a bunch of Jewish people.

In every instance, DAs and federal officials treat us to feckless speeches — but we want answers.

Was this perp ever surveilled? Did the police department ever even notify the feds that he was in Colorado, having violated his visa date?

The Issue: The Knicks firing Tom Thibodeau after their best season in 25 years.

The firing of the New York Knicks’ head coach was totally unwarranted

(“Raising the bar,” June 4).

Tom Thibodeau led the team to back-to-back 50-win seasons, then numerous playoff victories.

It took 25 years to find a successful coach for the Knicks. What about holding the players accountable for losing in the Eastern Conference finals?

The Knicks owner and team president Leon Rose should be ashamed of themselves for making this move.

Joseph Comperchio

Brooklyn

Are you kidding me? The classless Knicks fired their head coach.

Hey, James Dolan: Take your celebrity row and have a huge pity party.

I can only hope and pray the Knicks don’t see any hint of a championship for another 25 years.
