Federal Officials Provide New Details In Colorado Attack

Mohamed Sabry Soliman, the man accused of setting fire to peaceful demonstrators in Boulder, Colorado, is now facing a stack of felony charges—including two counts of first-degree murder, despite no confirmed fatalities. The attack, described by the FBI as a “targeted terror attack,” left eight people injured, one critically, and has reignited fierce scrutiny over immigration enforcement and rising antisemitic violence in the U.S.

These evildoers are emboldened by Donald Trump and Pam Bondi’s declaration of war on the Rule of Law…

They’ve made heroes of J6 terrorists and the Tate rapist brothers, arresting and threatening judges who don’t capitulate. These are their radicalized MAGA. This is their doing…

The gravity of the charges reveals the calculated nature of Soliman’s alleged actions. Prosecutors have charged him with:

  • First-degree murder – deliberation with intent
  • First-degree murder – extreme indifference
  • Crimes against at-risk adults/elderly
  • First-degree assault – non-family
  • First-degree assault – heat of passion
  • Criminal attempt to commit class one and two felonies
  • Use of explosives/incendiary devices during a felony

While no victims have died, according to the Boulder Police Department, the murder charges suggest that authorities believe Soliman acted with deadly intent and with total disregard for human life.

Patriarchy. Just men wrecking the world. Under the banner of whatever religion or ideology... just men wrecking the world. On repeat throughout history.

The attack targeted a local chapter of Run for Their Lives, a non-partisan, humanitarian movement that gathers weekly to raise awareness about the Israeli hostages still held in Gaza by Hamas. Victims ranged in age from 52 to 88, making the charge for crimes against vulnerable adults especially relevant.

FBI Director Kash Patel confirmed the agency is treating the incident as an act of terrorism, and his deputy, Dan Bongino, categorized it as “ideologically motivated violence.” Eyewitnesses heard Soliman shouting “Free Palestine” and other inflammatory slogans during the assault, which took place in broad daylight near the county courthouse on Pearl Street.


What’s more alarming: Soliman was in the United States illegally.

Records confirm that he entered via LAX on a non-immigrant visa on August 27, 2022, which expired on February 2, 2023. Instead of leaving, Soliman filed a claim with U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services on September 9, 2022—just days after arriving. Despite overstaying, he was granted work authorization in March 2023, valid through March 2025.


This timeline reveals a systemic lapse in immigration enforcement: an individual who violated his visa terms not only remained undetected but was also granted the ability to work legally in the U.S.—and went on to commit a potentially deadly terrorist attack.

Boulder Police Chief Steve Redfearn confirmed that Soliman was arrested on the scene and transported to a hospital with minor injuries before being booked into Boulder County Jail, where he remains on a $10 million bond.

The case has prompted strong reactions from local, federal, and international figures:

  • FBI and DHS are jointly leading the investigation.
  • Colorado Governor Jared Polis condemned the incident as a “heinous act of terror.”
  • Jewish advocacy groups, including the ADL and the Simon Wiesenthal Center, warned that the attack is the product of unchecked antisemitic propaganda and political radicalization.
  • Security has been heightened in Jewish communities across the U.S., including enhanced patrols in New York City for the Shavuot holiday.
