Mohsen Mahdawi, wearing a keffiyah, stands next to
@bradlander to adoringly endorse him at around 0:40 in this video.
Some reminders about who Mahdawi is:
1. Before moving to the U.S., Mohsen studied Computer Engineering at Birzeit University—a campus long tied to terrorism and anti-Western extremism.
2. In college, Mohsen wrote a poem praising Dalal Mughrabi—the terrorist who murdered 38 Israelis, including 13 children, in the 1978 Coastal Road Massacre. This was the worst massacre of Jews in Israel until the October 7 Massacre.
3. Expressing his anger at Israel, Mohsen once stated that "stones and Molotovs weren’t enough” to satisfy his thirst for revenge.
4. Mohsen proudly noted on social media that his cousin is a high-ranking member of Palestinian Islamic Jihad.
5. Despite multiple chances to do so, Mohsen refused to condemn Hamas for the October 7 massacre, calling them merely “a product of the occupation.”
6. Mohsen led pro-Hamas protests under the “By Any Means Necessary” banner—standing beside
@NerdeenKiswani who has openly called for Israel to be “wiped off the map.”
7. In a pro-Hamas protest at in January 2024, Mohsen declared that “there is nothing more honorable than dying for a noble cause.”
