More people need to step up to combat antisemitism: Ex-FBI agent

() Mohamed Soliman, the man accused of injuring 12 people during an event for Israeli hostages, is being held on a $10 million cash bond and is charged with a federal hate crime.

According to court documents, Soliman had planned the attack for more than a year and waited until his daughter graduated to do so. He also said he wanted to kill all Zionist people and that the attack was needed to stop Zionists from “taking over our land,” referring to Palestine.

Noa Tishby, author and Israel’s special envoy for combating antisemitism, told ‘s Elizabeth Vargas she is not surprised by this attack because she and others have warned about antisemitic incidents becoming more violent over the years since the Oct. 7 attacks and subsequent protests.

“This is what they meant when they chant ‘globalize the intifada,'” Tishby said. “We have warned of violence, and it’s here now. This should be of grave concern to every American. We are not surprised, but we must fight against this.”

Retired FBI agent Bobby Chacon said attacks carried out by lone actors are very difficult to detect and prevent.

“Where it needs to stop is that community leaders, politicians and even the media need to step up,” Chacon said. “The responsibility of stopping the next attack comes to them.”
