A Palestinian man in Israel illegally was arrested in Tel Aviv on Saturday evening with loaded ammunition magazines.

Police detained the 22-year-old man on Rothschild Boulevard, one of the main streets in the city. He is a resident of Beit Ummar, located some seven miles northwest of Hebron in Judea.

He had in his possession three magazines loaded with bullets as well as “cannabis-type drugs.”

The suspect was taken for questioning.

Mohammad Baqer Saad Dawood Al-Saadi “directed and urged others to attack U.S. and Israeli interests and to kill Americans and Jews in the U.S. and abroad,” the Justice Department said.
One caller, who invoked Tucker Carlson, told Rep. Jared Moskowitz, a Florida Democrat, that “you’re the Hitler.”
“There will be ups and downs, but the potential for success is great,” wrote Yechiel Leiter, the Israeli envoy in Washington.
“I don’t want to quit. I’m not a quitter,” Steve Cohen said. “But these districts were drawn to beat me. They were drawn to defeat me.”
Federal prosecutors allege Elias Rodriguez carried out a premeditated terrorist attack motivated by “political, ideological, national and religious bias, contempt and hatred.”
“We shouldn’t host the relatives of people who attack our country,” said Sen. Tom Cotton.
