The Florida branch of the American Council on Islamic Relations (Cair-Florida), the state’s largest Muslim civil rights agency, filed a federal hate crime charge Monday after the arrest of a suspect allegedly fired on a Miami vehicle I called out to. After the beach, it was reportedly seen that he thought he was “two Palestinians.”
Mordechai Brafman, 27, stopped in front of the vehicle and reportedly made a U-turn to film “stricken both victims 17 times,” and then went on to the 2nd time. He was charged with attempted murder. Police said while he was in custody, Brahman said “he saw two Palestinians and shot and killed both.” One of the victims was shot in the shoulder and the other arm was grazed with a bullet.
“We are urging state and federal law enforcement agencies to raise accusations of hate crimes in this case based on perpetrators’ statements against police reportedly showing anti-Palestinian motives. What the gunman reportedly reportedly reportedly is not the actual ethnicity of the victim, but should be a deciding factor in the charges of this disturbing incident.”
He asked earlier this month to blame Palm Bay City Councilman Chandler Ranjbin for his inflammatory and xenophobic anti-Muslim remarks that Muslims claimed “do not belong” He added.
Last year, Cair-Fl has called for more murder after posting an anti-Muslim tweet celebrating the murder of Turkish-American human rights activist Aysenur Ezgi Eygi It looked like that.
Ruiz said that between January and June 2024, Cair recorded 4,951 bias complaints nationwide, up 69% in 2023 over the same period.
Last year, Cair’s National Office released its 2024 Civil Rights Report. The report entitled “Fatal: Resurrection of Anti-Muslim Hate” recorded 8,061 complaints. Almost half of all complaints received in 2023 were reported during the last three months of the year.
