🧵 It's been a year since the terrible #Colleyville Synagogue hostage crisis. 
#OTD (Jan 15, 2022), a gunman entered the Congregation Beth Israel synagogue in #Colleyville, Texas, during a Sabbath service.
The gunman’s rants were recorded over the video stream. He warned that he would kill people unless authorities released his “sister” (Aafia Siddiqui).

Islamist group @cairnational says it strongly condemns the Islamic hostage taking at the Texas synagogue, but just weeks ago campaigned with @lsarsour for the release of the same convicted terrorist the hostage taker was wanting freed (Aafia Saddiqui). #Colleyville
Despite Aafia’s violent jihadism, mainstream Muslim groups & activists (eg @lsarsour, @cairnational, @omarsuleiman504) demanded her release. Siddiqui is so extreme that before conviction, she demanded jurors be DNA tested to exclude Jews. #Colleyville nydailynews.com/news/crime/lad…
Leaders connected to @cairnational or its official chapters have repeatedly expressed views that are extremist & antisemitic. The executive dir. of the San Francisco chapter (@ZahraBilloo) said “Zionist synagogues” are part of conspiracy of Islamophobia. jpost.com/diaspora/antis…

ABC News’ @AaronKatersky broke details about the synagogue hostage taker in Colleyville, Texas. Muhammad is reportedly the brother of jailed jihadist terrorist, Aafia Siddiqui.
Important update about the suspect:
I’ve deleted the first tweet in the thread since the actual brother of jihadist terrorist Aafia Siddiqui confirmed he wasn’t the man in the hostage incident at the #Colleyville synagogue. The suspect in the incident is now deceased & his name has not been confirmed yet.
