Tristan Alexander Anderson, 22, of Hooksett, N.H., was arrested last month and accused of threatening to kill New Hampshire Gov. Kelly Ayotte, a Republican, with “my weapon of mass destruction” and of saying that Jews must die.

Per court documents, which JNS viewed, Anderson was arrested on Aug. 28. He allegedly stated that “these Jew feds” need to die and referred to the “Israel deep state.”

The accused also allegedly stated that Jews created polygamy. Police said that he owned guns and materials to make bombs.

“The charging by the FBI of Haverford College associate professor Guangtian Ha for harassment and intimidation of a Jewish Israeli professor closes the dotted line between verbal acts of harassment and actionable violence which, when Jews are the recipients, is far too often ignored,” Lori Lowenthal Marcus, of the Deborah Project, told JNS.
Luis Har was freed from captivity in Gaza in a daring Israeli military operation 129 days after he was abducted during the Oct. 7, 2023, massacre.
The Jewish state lowered its flags to half-staff at 6:29 a.m. to launch commemorations honoring fallen soldiers and victims of the 2023 assault.
Three years after the Oct. 7 Hamas massacre, the families of Capt. Elay Adany and those he helped rescue remain bound by his final acts of courage.
