Update (10/16/23): The Illinois man who fatally stabbed a 6-year-old Palestinian American boy had reportedly been worried about the “day of jihad” and had “been listening to conservative talk radio about the Israel-Hamas war and became increasingly concerned about his Muslim tenants.”
Right-wing media spent days fearmongering about potential mass violence happening on Friday after a former Hamas political leader was reportedly mistranslated as advocating for a “day of jihad.” Despite a lack of evidence of a related threat to the United States, some called for increased surveillance and others gave advice on how to best avoid an attack.
The US really should think about implementing a law about hate speech, inciting violence against others, based on race, gender, religion, etc …
Just copy paste from the law in Belgium, the UK or Germany. That way you can round up these people and maybe in a decade have a decent society again.
Out of curiosity, can you sum up the key points of those?

Found the person who doesn’t understand free speech.
It’s so odd how there is always some sort of caravan of immigrants approaching our borders or "day of jihad” that suddenly disappear the Wednesday after an election.
Dude, the real issue is shariah law in America as I hear these ladies talking at the deli counter in my local BJs because they don’t know the difference from Shariah Law made by Christians fanatics or followers of the Quran
Shakira law says your hips should only tell truth
It’s an orthotic device!
The irony here of course is that the fundamentalist christians have 0 issue with carrying out a “jihad” of their own against people of other religions, lgbtq, and athiests. I mean if you are so afraid of a 6 year old American citizen of another ethnicity hurting you but have no fear or problem taking his parents’ money you are a special kind of fucking coward and degenerate. But then again those conservative news agencies know everything that their viewers dont have the mental horsepower to understand, or do but will never investigate on their own or think for themselves makes them afraid of their own shadows.
why are they so worried when theres so many good guys with guns
I doubt they believe in “good guys with guns” any more than the “day of jihad”. They’re just catch phrases that make them money.
Oh no don’t get that misconstrued many really do believe in the good guy with a gun fantasy and that one day they will have to use it to defend themselves or their family from certain doom.
Sure, random gun owners probably believe it, the same way many of them also believe “climate change isn’t real”.
But do the politicians? I’m not sure if they’ve even bothered to consider if it’s true or not.
It’s profitable to a lobby group that in turn “donates” $16 million a year and it creates a single-issue voting bloc that will tolerate literally anything – including things they claim their guns are to prevent – as long as you don’t take away their hero fantasies.
It did come….on Jan 6th 2021
“Despite a lack of evidence” makes it sound like an oversight. It’s pretty clearly a case of malicious assholes just making shit up to serve their political ends.
the call is coming from inside the house
Hold up. You’ve already lost. They don’t need evidence of anything. Their job is to manipulate pre-existing fear. If people merely perceive danger and that their safety is compromised, some of them will help totalitarianism take root.
Can we shut down the Republican Party now? Please? For the safety of America?
Fear, hate, and grift. It’s all they know.
So concerned about terrorists that he became one.
Jihad means many things, including inner struggle. It’s actually pretty likely that the day of Jihad (if there were any earnest calls for Jihad in the first place) was probably a day of mourning that already happened.
Yeah I’m more worried about the altrightaliban thanks
