Arizona Muslim Terrorist Wanted to Target Jews

Amidst all the whining about Islamophobia being the greatest issue this country faces today (especially after every Muslim terrorist attack or failed plot) there is a consistent pattern among Islamic terrorist attacks.

The attackers repeatedly make a point of contemplating hitting Jewish targets.

A Tucson man charged with plotting a terrorist attack on a motor vehicle office in metro Phoenix also expressed to an undercover FBI employee that he wanted to target a Jewish community center in his hometown in a violent attack, a federal agent testified Tuesday at a court hearing.

Agent Benjamin Trentlage said Mahin Khan eventually focused on plans to attack a motor vehicle office in Mesa and instructed the undercover employee to start building homemade grenades.

The agent said the 18-year-old wanted to inspire an insurgency in the United States to carry out the sort of attacks that had occurred in Paris and Brussels and had online exchanges with a person believed to be a member of the Islamic State terrorist group.

There's nothing surprising about the fact that yet another Islamic terrorist wanted to murder Jews. The problem is that this phenomenon is hardly discussed. We constantly talk about Islamophobia rather than the Muslim xenophobia that leads to anti-Semitic plots like this one, not to mention the genocides against indigenous peoples like the Yazidis by the Muslim settlers.
