Boulder illegal alien terror suspect plotted for year: Cops say he stalked Israel group, posed as gardener, has 'no regret'



An arrest warrant revealed additional details about the Boulder, Colorado, terror suspect and his alleged nefarious plot against a pro-Israel group.

The suspect was accused of using a makeshift flamethrower and Molotov cocktails to burn participants in the "Run for Their Lives" group, an organization that meets weekly to advocate for the hostages held captive by Hamas since October 2023.

'He would go back and do it again and had no regret doing what he did.'

The hateful attack, which occurred on Sunday, reportedly caused injuries to 12 victims. Two individuals remain hospitalized, including one victim who is in critical condition. No fatalities have been reported.

The district attorney's affidavit for arrest, obtained by Blaze News, revealed that Mohamed Sabry Soliman, a 45-year-old Egyptian national, is facing several charges in connection with the brutal attack, including eight counts of "First Degree Murder (after deliberation) - Criminal Attempt" and eight counts of "First Degree Murder (extreme indifference) - Criminal Attempt." He is also charged with first-degree assault and possession of an incendiary device.

The arrest warrant stated that the suspect carried out the assault "as vengeance for 'his people,'" whom he described as Palestinians.

Law enforcement authorities learned that Soliman had allegedly meticulously planned out the Sunday attack for a year, waiting for his eldest daughter to graduate from high school before carrying it out. She reportedly graduated last week.

Soliman reportedly told law enforcement that he sought out a "Zionist" group online and found that "Run for Their Lives" held weekly gatherings.

"Mohamed expressed his hatred for the Zionist Organization as they support and fund the bombings that are taking place in Palestine," the warrant read. "Mohamed said anyone who supports the exist[ence] of Israel on 'our land' is Zionist."

Yet Soliman claimed that the attack "had nothing to do with the Jewish community and was specific in the Zionist group supporting the killings of people on his land (Palestine)," the arrest warrant read.

In preparation for the attack, Soliman allegedly purchased items to create the Molotov cocktails, which he learned how to make on YouTube, and a homemade flamethrower in Castle Rock before he headed to Boulder, the arrest warrant indicated.

However, the use of incendiary devices allegedly was not part of his original plan.

"Mohamed said he had to use Molotov cocktails after he was denied the purchase of a gun due to him not being a legal citizen. Mohamed said he took a concealed carry class where he learned to shoot a gun but that all changed after he was denied the purchase," according to the warrant.

Law enforcement said he arrived near the group's meeting spot dressed in disguise as a gardener, wearing an orange vest and a backpack sprayer while carrying flowers.

He used the backpack sprayer, filled with gasoline, to douse himself "because he had planned on dying," the warrant stated.

Soliman reportedly told law enforcement that he wanted "all" of the protest participants to "die," adding that "he would go back and do it again and had no regret doing what he did."

He allegedly described the attack as "revenge" because the "Zionist group did not care about thousands of hostages from Palestine" but only about "their benefit, money, and power."

Soliman insisted to law enforcement that he acted alone and no one knew about his plan.

He faces up to 624 years in prison if convicted on all local counts. In addition, Soliman was also charged with a federal hate crime, according to the FBI's arrest affidavit.

On Tuesday afternoon, Fox News reported that Immigration and Customs Enforcement and Homeland Security Investigations arrested Soliman's wife and children. Their immigration status is unclear at this time.

When reached for comment, the DHS referred Blaze News to Secretary Kristi Noem's Tuesday post on X.

She wrote, "Today, @DHSgov and @ICEGov are taking the family of suspected Boulder, Colorado terrorist, and illegal alien, Mohamed Soliman, into ICE custody."

"This terrorist will be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law. We are investigating to what extent his family knew about this heinous attack, if they had knowledge of it, or if they provided support to it," Noem continued. "I am continuing to pray for the victims of this attack and their families. Justice will be served."

‘Ancient, primal, vicious’ — Glenn Beck's fiery reaction to heinous Boulder terror attack



On June 1, 2025, in Boulder, Colorado, a man named Mohamed Sabry Soliman, 45, who Department of Homeland Security officials claim was in the country illegally, attacked a peaceful pro-Israel demonstration with a makeshift flamethrower and Molotov cocktails, injuring eight people. According to reports, Soliman yelled, "Free Palestine!" during the attack, which the FBI is investigating as a targeted act of terrorism.

“Evil struck,” says Glenn Beck. “Not with a drone, not with a bomb, not with a cyber attack, or a coordinated cell, but with fire — ancient, primal, vicious.”

— (@)

Glenn describes Soliman as “an illegal immigrant whose Visa had expired not once but two times.”

The flames from Soliman’s Molotov cocktails “quickly licked up the curtains, the memories, the photographs, and the people,” he laments.

One of the people injured was an 88-year-old Holocaust survivor — “a woman who escaped Hitler’s oven only to be set ablaze here in the nation that was supposed to be the world’s safe harbor,” says Glenn. “She survived last century’s greatest evil only to be hunted in this century in this country.”

The attack makes him wonder “how many more like [Soliman] are here hiding in plain sight, walking amongst us.”

“Why, two decades after 9/11, have we learned nothing?” he asks, noting that “people overstaying their visas” was a major reason 9/11 happened.

The Patriot Act — a law that expanded government surveillance and law enforcement powers to combat terrorism following the 9/11 attacks — “has done an awful lot of things but apparently not what stopped what caused 9/11,” Glenn condemns. “Do you remember the commissions? Do you remember the hearings? Do you remember all of the promises? They meant nothing.”

As long as we continue “trading security for ideology, borders for feelings, sovereignty for slogans,” these attacks won’t stop, he warns.

“When will you say you’ve had enough?”

'Terror attack': 'Illegal' alien captured after allegedly setting pro-Israel demonstrators ablaze in Boulder, Colorado



An immigrant, motivated by anti-Semitic beliefs, has been accused of brutally attacking a peaceful pro-Israel group advocating for hostages held captive by Hamas.

Mohamed Sabry Soliman, a 45-year-old Egyptian national in the United States despite reportedly overstaying his visa, is suspected of attacking a group of individuals participating in a walk in Boulder, Colorado.

'This act of terror is being investigated as an act of ideologically motivated violence based on the early information, the evidence, and witness accounts.'

The attack targeted the “Run for Their Lives” group, a grassroots organization that gathered on Pearl Street on Sunday evening to support the release of the hostages captured by the terrorist group in October 2023. According to the FBI, the group chapter gathers weekly.

Video footage of the attack allegedly showed a shirtless Soliman yelling at the group while holding two apparent Molotov cocktails, with a small patch of grass burning at his feet.

During the attack, Soliman allegedly yelled, “Free Palestine!”

A second video showed a lone police officer handcuffing Soliman. Moments later, another officer arrived to assist with the arrest.

As the arrest was taking place, bystanders filled containers with water from a nearby fountain to soothe victims’ burn wounds, according to a video shared on social media.

The individual who uploaded the videos to social media stated that in addition to Molotov cocktails, the suspect used a gardening tool to “light[] people on fire with gasoline,” burning “about 6 people.”

Mark Michalek, the special agent in charge of FBI Denver, described the device as “a makeshift flamethrower.”

CNN reported that eight people, from 52 to 88 years old, were injured in the attack, including a Holocaust survivor. Boulder Police Chief Stephen Redfearn described one of the victims as “very seriously injured.”

Authorities have not reported any fatalities.

The FBI stated that it is investigating the attack as “a targeted act of terrorism.”

FBI Director Kash Patel wrote in a post on X, “We are aware of and fully investigating a targeted terror attack in Boulder, Colorado. Our agents and local law enforcement are on the scene already, and we will share updates as more information becomes available.”

FBI Deputy Director Dan Bongino stated, “This act of terror is being investigated as an act of ideologically motivated violence based on the early information, the evidence, and witness accounts.”

Soliman was detained on Sunday evening and remains in custody at the Boulder County Jail on a $10 million bond, according to Fox News. Soliman reportedly faces numerous charges, including first-degree murder, crimes against at-risk adults/elderly, assault, and use of explosives or incendiary devices during a felony.

As of Monday morning, jail records stated Soliman was charged with “murder in the 1st degree” despite no reported fatalities.

The police department confirmed in a Monday post on social media that “no victims have died.”

When contacted for clarification, the department stated he was charged with “attempted murder.”

Dionne Waugh, the department’s public information officer, who included pronouns in her email signature linked to a resource on "personal pronouns," told Blaze News, “Please read the code section. It’s attempted murder.”

Soliman's first court appearance is scheduled for Monday afternoon.

The Department of Homeland Security reported that Soliman was illegally in the U.S.

Assistant secretary for public affairs Tricia McLaughlin stated that he lawfully entered the country in August 2022 on a B-2 visa but illegally remained in the U.S. after the visa expired in February 2023. She noted that he filed for asylum in September 2022.

The DHS confirmed to Blaze News that Soliman "is illegally in our country."

Progressive Colorado city forced to modify order banning college-age  people from gathering in groups of two



Thanks to a modification of a public health order, people ages 18 to 22 years old in Boulder, Colorado, will now be allowed to gather in groups of two again.

Changes to the drastic measure, which effectively forced college-age individuals to live in complete isolation, were made after the county's public health agency was hit with an onslaught of negative feedback, including from young people who said they did not always feel safe while alone, the Denver Channel reported Monday.

Feedback also reportedly requested more provisions for other legal activities and for people with disabilities.

Boulder County Public Health has issued updates this morning to its order restricting gatherings of people in Bould… https://t.co/VWhjthsQJw
— City of Boulder (@City of Boulder)1601314108.0

The kind and reasonable people at Boulder County Public Health apparently received the feedback with open minds and have graciously moved to allow young adults the ability to see one other person.

The health department also suggested that students concerned about walking on campus alone should contact Colorado University police or download the Guardian app and designate a family member or friend to virtually track their movements.

What's the background?

After a surge of outbreaks in dormitories and fraternity houses were reported earlier this month, Boulder health officials decided to enact the most extreme measure they could possibly conceive of by banning gatherings of any kind for college-age people.

Officials also placed residents of 36 addresses linked to health order violations in a mandatory quarantine, preventing them from leaving their residence for any reason except to attain medical care or food, or to exercise alone.

The order took effect on Sept. 24 and was slated to last two weeks, although it is subject to extension. Violators could face fines and possible jail time or, if they are students at the University of Colorado, expulsion.

The ban on college-age gatherings coincided with the suspension of in-person classes and an emergency order prohibiting the sale of alcohol after 10 p.m.

Anything else?

In theory, cutting people off from each other completely would be the best way to stem an outbreak. But it also puts nearly every other facet of society on pause, and not without consequences of its own.

That evidently was not a primary concern for health department director Jeff Zayach, who insisted "we must take stronger action to stop the spread of this virus in our community."

"We have researched the actions we can take that would be effective while minimizing burden on those who have not been the source of increased transmission. We believe this strategy can achieve both goals," he added.

Democratic Gov. Jared Polis stood by the city's decision.

"Governor Polis knows that the better students do avoiding gatherings, the sooner they can get back to in-person learning and the sooner they can resume their regular activities. We know this isn't the school year that any of us imagined, but urgent action is needed to prevent further spread in the community," read a statement from the governor's office.

Colorado police seek woman who reportedly attacked a 12-year-old boy over his pro-Trump sign



Police in Boulder, Colorado, said they are seeking a woman who allegedly assaulted a 12-year-old over his sign supporting President Donald Trump.

The incident unfolded on Monday at about 3 p.m. according to a police report.

The boy, who was left unidentified, was riding his bike with a pro-Trump sign when he says that a woman riding on a moped passed him and then took a u-turn in order to confront him about the sign.

Boulder police spokeswoman Shannon Aulabaugh said the woman told the boy, "you want something to look at?" or something similar before she punched him.

Aulabaugh said the woman hit the boy with her closed fist on his head, and give him several more blows. She also scratched him after he fell to the ground.

The boy told the police that the woman attempted to steal his sign but that she was unsuccessful.

Boulder police are seeking a white woman in her twenties or thirties. She was wearing a blue shirt, blue jeans and a tan jacket at the time of the alleged attack. Her moped was colored blue or gray.

The boy told Denver7 News that it wasn't the first time he had been attack for showing his support for the president, but that it was the first time he had been attacked by an adult.

"I like showing what I believe in," he said. "I didn't want any conflict – I just wanted to show what I believe in."

He said that he was afraid to show his support for Trump because of the troubling incident. His father added that he wanted to press charges against the woman if she is identified by the police.
