COURT DOCUMENTS indicate SOLIMAN HAD BEEN PLANNING THE ATTACK FOR MORE THAN A YEAR… BUT WAITED UNTIL AFTER HIS DAUGHTER’S HIGH SCHOOL GRADUATION LAST WEEK TO ACT.
THEY SAY HE TARGETED WHAT HE CALLED A “ZIONIST GROUP,” AND WAS ARMED WITH 18 MOLOTOV COCKTAILS .. BUT USED JUST TWO AFTER HE QUOTE “GOT SCARED”
BISHOP GREWELL, ACTING US ATTORNEY FOR THE DISTRICT OF COLORADO
“When he was interviewed about the attack, he said he wanted them all to die. He had no regrets and he would go back and do it again. He said that he had previously tried to purchase a firearm, but resorted to the Molotov cocktails when he could not purchase a gun because he was not a legal citizen.”
PRESIDENT TRUMP WEIGHED IN ON MONDAY WRITING ON TRUTH SOCIAL PLATFORM “THIS IS YET ANOTHER EXAMPLE OF WHY WE MUST KEEP OUR BORDERS SECURE, AND DEPORT ILLEGAL, ANTI-AMERICAN RADICALS FROM OUR HOMELAND.”
SOLIMAN IS NOW FACING A FEDERAL HATE CRIME CHARGE … ALONG WITH 16 COUNTS OF ATTEMPTED FIRST-DEGREE MURDER AND OTHER STATE CHARGES IN COLORADO.
