Joe Biden Condemns Attempted Homicide of Palestinian-American Child in Texas

U.S.: Joe Biden “Troubled” by Attempted Homicide of Palestinian-American Child

On Monday, June 24th, U.S. President Joe Biden expressed being “deeply troubled” by reports of an attempted drowning murder of a Palestinian-American child in May in Texas, in the southern part of the country.

Local media outlets and the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) reported the arrest of a 42-year-old woman on May 19 after an assault at a pool in an apartment complex in the suburb of Euless between Dallas and Fort Worth. “No child should ever suffer a violent attack”

After asking the mother, who was wearing a hijab, if the 3-year-old girl and 6-year-old boy in the pool were hers, this woman directed racist insults towards her and attempted to drag them towards the deep end with the apparent intention to drown them, according to the same sources. The boy managed to resist, but the little girl had to be rescued by a man who was called over by witnesses, as detailed by local media.

President Joe Biden expressed on his official account being “deeply troubled” by this apparent murder attempt. “No child should ever suffer a violent attack,” he added.

The war in Gaza between Israel and the Palestinian Islamist movement Hamas has led to heightened tensions in the United States, particularly on university campuses, and has resulted in an increase in anti-Semitic and Islamophobic acts.

In November, a man shot and injured three Palestinian-American students in Vermont. And at the beginning of October, a six-year-old Muslim boy was fatally stabbed near Chicago by a septuagenarian, a crime directly related to the ongoing war in Gaza according to the police.
