Flotsam and Jetsam - Terror Attack in Boulder, Drone Attack in Russia

Yesterday afternoon, an Egyptian national, Mohamad Soliman, with an expired visa, attacked at group of pro-Israel protestors, silently parading in Boulder Colorado, to protest the hostage taking in Gaza with Molotov cocktails, seriously, perhaps even fatally burning several, all while shouting anti-Jewish bile. Kash Patel's FBI is calling it a targeted terror attack, while the Boulder police chief rushed to say we many never know his motive. Stacy McCain writes Terror Attack in Colorado: Fire-Bomber Targets Pro-Israel Demonstration UPDATE: Illegal Alien From Egypt! "Yeah, a guy named “Mohamad” throws fire bombs at Jews, yelling about Zionism, but “it’s too early to speculate on the attacker’s motive.”" Bill Melugin @BillMelugin_, "BREAKING: Three senior DHS sources tell @FoxNews that the Boulder terror suspect is an Egyptian national in the U.S. illegally as a visa overstay who entered the U.S. during the Biden administration. I’m told Mohamed Sabry Soliman arrived at LAX on 8/27/22 on a B1/B2 nonimmigrant visa with an authorized stay through 2/26/23, but he overstayed & never left. I’m told on 9/29/22, he filed some sort of claim with USCIS, potentially an asylum claim, and on 3/29/23, USCIS under the Biden admin gave him work authorization, which expired on 3/28/25." Insty has a long post, HAMASHOLES: Breaking: ‘Targeted Terror Attack’ in Boulder. “A self-proclaimed Palestinian activist showed up with a garden sprayer full of something flammable – witnesses said it was clear but smelled like gasoline – sprayed the group, and then threw Molotov cocktails as he shouted obscenities and watched elderly human beings in flames. . . . The descriptions of the injuries are so ghastly.” Jerusalem Post, Six wounded in attack on pro-Israel hostage event in Boulder, Colorado, incl. Holocaust survivor.

Matt Vespa at TownHall notes The FBI's Take on the Boulder Terror Attack Did Not Sit Well With CNNBreaking911 @Breaking911, "**Man shouts anti-Israeli rhetoric & tries to burn people alive at vigil for Gaza hostages** FBI: "We are aware of the targeted terror attack in Boulder." BOULDER PD: "We are not ready to classify this as terrorism." CNN: "Let's not jump to conclusions.""

Undercover Ukrainian operatives penetrated Russia with truckloads of drones and attacked Russian bombers at airfields. Sundance, Ukraine Carries Out Widespread Suicide Mission Attacks in Russia – White House Not Informed in Advance

The basic outline of what took place are now a bit clearer. In what was called “Operation Spider Web” Ukraine counterintelligence operatives staged a series of semi-trucks near five strategic air bases deep inside Russia. The trucks were loaded with explosive drones, and the drones came out and attacked the bases. Most of the truck drivers and drone operators were captured by Russian military. It was a suicide mission.

According to Ukraine government officials the mission was a big success; however, the claim of 40 strategic long-range Russian bombers being destroyed seems more like a PR narrative than likely actual outcome.

Factually, it was a counterintelligence success to pull off such a well-coordinated significant operation deep inside the Russian Federation. However, on the other hand this operation outlines how Russia is more like the USA than people think as it relates to the locations of their military bases and the vulnerable proximity around them.
. . .
There’s also an important detail to remember. People are laughing at the long-range Russian bombers being left out in the open, vulnerable to attack. However, their visibility is required as part of several nuclear agreements between the USA and Russia. Our long range nuclear capable bombers, covered under the agreements, are also visible. Zelenskyy is playing with fire by targeting them, which also explains why Zelenskyy never told President Trump in advance.

At Foreign Affairs, on The Delusions of Peacemaking in Ukraine, "Kyiv Won’t Compromise on Its Sovereignty Because It Isn’t Facing Defeat." OTH, it will not be possible for Ukraine to win back significant amounts of land either. So let's just keep killing people to maintain a stalemate.

Jerry Nadler says a member of his staff was handcuffed by a Department of Homeland Security agent at his congressional office Wednesday. The incident was caught on video. According to a DHS spokesperson, Federal Protective Service officers were responding to reports that protesters were inside Nadler’s district office in Manhattan. “Upon arrival, officers were granted entry and encountered four individuals. Officers identified themselves and explained their intent to conduct a security check, however, one individual became verbally confrontational and physically blocked access to the office. The officers then detained the individual in the hallway for the purpose of completing the security check. All were released without further incident,” DHS said in a statement." . . . Related: “Nobody is above the law.” —Rep. Jerrold Nadler (D-NY), May 15th, 2019."
