Last week, Saadah Masoud pleaded guilty to one count of participating in a conspiracy to commit hate crime acts, according to the U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of New York. The charges came in connection with Masoud’s “repeated physical attacks of Jewish victims” in New York City between 2021 and 2022. He was arrested in June.
Canary Mission, which had compiled a file on Masoud based on his incitement to violence against supporters of Israel and spreading of antisemitic conspiracy theories, was able to identify Masoud as the man on video assaulting a victim who was wearing an Israeli flag on a Manhattan street, leading to his arrest. He faces up to five years in prison.
Masoud, a 29-year-old Staten Island resident, is involved with Within Our Lifetime (WOL), a virulent antisemitic and anti-Israel group and offshoot of Students for Justice in Palestine (SJP) in New York City.
U.S. Attorney Damian Williams said that Masoud, along with others, “deliberately targeted three victims because of their religion and nation of origin.” As part of his plea, Masoud admitted to three assaults, including one on a victim wearing a kippah and other Jewish clothing, and one wearing a Star of David necklace.
“We are satisfied that Saadah Masoud is being penalized for his violent hate crimes, but his is not an isolated case,” Canary Mission wrote in a statement, asking authorities to pursue charges against Nerdeen KIswani, a co-founder of New York City’s branch of SJP, who has engaged in calls for the death of Zionists and for Israel’s destruction, in addition to glorifying intifada violence and honoring leaders of the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP) terror group.
“While Masoud has rightly been convicted of hate crimes, what about his mentor and leader, Nerdeen Kiswani?” Canary Mission wrote. “Her hate-filled rhetoric includes a call for ‘Resistance, By Any Means Necessary,’ and that ‘We need allies that are gonna help us achieve a victory, not allies who are gonna to tell us to be non-violent.’ ”
Masoud is scheduled to be sentenced on March 3.
He must be sentenced to the maximum penalty, under federal law.
i doubt he will sit a day in prison
Brad lander loves him
Lock him in a room with some JDL members and let nature take its course.

Unfortunately, this state and city is governed by filthy criminally insane leftist crime loving DemonRats.
This rabies infected sewer rat, will get off with a slap on the wrist.
It is high time all law abiding citizens organize to protect this city and themselves

If this murderous sewer rat is released without proper punishment, a posse of law abiding citizens, need to hunt him down and deal with him exactly as you would with a rabies infected animal.
