LOCALIZING THE INTIFADA: Zohran Mamdani Supported Terrorist Who Killed Jewish Students in Supermarket

25

Edward Joffe (22) and Leon Kanner (21), students at Hebrew University, were killed in a bomb attack on a Jerusalem supermarket in 1969. The Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP) and its members, including Rasmea Odeh, were involved in the bombing. Odeh was convicted in an Israeli court in 1970 for her involvement in the attack.

Zohran and his group Students for Justice in Palestine, a Muslim Brotherhood group that supports Hamas and Oct 7, rallied for Odeh.

The final conquest of 9/11 is upon us.

Mamdani Supported Terrorist Who Killed 2 Jewish Students in Supermarket

By Daniel Greenfield, July 18, 2025:

Zohran Mamdani has been promising that if he takes over New York, then the city’s Jewish population will be safe. His record of ‘localizing the intifada’ raises all sorts of questions about that. Including his support for a Muslim terrorist linked to a supermarket bombing attack that killed two Jewish college students shopping for groceries before the Sabbath.

Edward Joffe and Leon Kanner were 22 and 21 years old when they were killed. The two Hebrew University students were at the SuperSol supermarket when a bomb that had been planted under the counter went off, killing both students and wounding 10 others.

Rasmea Odeh, the terrorist linked to the attack, who immigrated to America had become a popular cause for Islamists and leftists.

Including Zohran. His chapter of Students for Justice in Palestine, a Muslim Brotherhood group that supports Hamas and Oct 7, rallied for Odeh.

But that’s what globalizing and then localizing the intifada means.

JW commenter posted the remarks from the US Immigration records about Rasmea Odeh The bombs that killed the two Israeli students were planted in 1969:

Before immigrating to the United States, Odeh had been convicted overseas for her participation in two 1969 terrorist bombings in Israel, and for having been a member of the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP), which has been designated a terrorist organization by the United States. Specifically, she was convicted of placing two bombs at a supermarket that killed two individuals and of planting a bomb at the British Consulate in Jerusalem, as well as membership in an illegal organization. Odeh was sentenced to life imprisonment, but was released after serving more than 10 years in prison as part of a prisoner exchange with the PFLP.

Odeh obtained a United States immigrant visa in 1994 and had lived in the United States for the last 22 years. In 2004, she obtained United States citizenship. She unlawfully failed to disclose her arrest and convictions regarding the bombings in both her application for her visa and her separate application for United States citizenship.

According to the plea agreement signed by Odeh, she admitted that in those applications, she lied about her criminal history by falsely denying that she had ever been arrested, charged with a crime, convicted, or imprisoned. In her plea, Odeh also admitted that at the time she made the false statements, she knew the statements were false, and that “she made the false statements intentionally and not as a result of any mistake, Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder or any other psychological issue or condition”, as she had previously claimed in court proceedings, “or for any innocent reason”. Odeh also admitted that at the time she made the false statements, she knew that it was unlawful for her to provide false information to the United States government in connection with her application for Immigrant Visa and her application for naturalization. Had Odeh revealed the truth about her criminal history, as she was required to by law, she never would have been granted an immigrant visa, admitted to the United States, allowed to live here for the last 22 years, or granted United States Citizenship.
