<p style="font-weight: 400;">Federal prosecutors have accused Mahmoud Amin Ya’qub al-Muhtadi, 33, of Louisiana, of taking part in the Hamas-led October 7, 2023, massacre in Israel and of gaining entry to the United States through a fraudulent visa application.</p>
<p style="font-weight: 400;" data-start="476" data-end="947">According to a criminal complaint unsealed Thursday, al-Muhtadi wasn’t just a bystander. He’s accused of organizing armed fighters in Gaza, helping coordinate the assault, and crossing into Israel himself just behind the first wave of Hamas terrorists. Communications from that morning show al-Muhtadi instructing others to “bring the rifles,” “get ready,” and asking for bulletproof vests and ammunition. One message was blunt: “If you have a full magazine, bring it to me.”</p>
<p style="font-weight: 400;" data-start="949" data-end="1362">The FBI complaint, according to <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2025/10/17/us/fbi-hamas-attack-louisiana.html?unlocked_article_code=1.uE8.zTMe.8-olRlhIWLLf&amp;smid=nytcore-ios-share&amp;referringSource=articleShare">The New York Times</a>, reveals his phone connected to an Israeli cell tower on the morning of the attack — a damning indicator he may have crossed into Israeli territory. Nearby, 60 people — including American citizens — were slaughtered at a kibbutz. Though al-Muhtadi hasn’t yet been charged with directly murdering anyone, the evidence places him near the scene of the massacre and in contact with those actively involved.</p>

<p style="font-weight: 400;" data-start="1364" data-end="1427">What makes this more disturbing? He got into the United States.</p>
<p style="font-weight: 400;" data-start="1429" data-end="1854">Al-Muhtadi allegedly applied for a U.S. immigrant visa under the name Mahmoud Almuhtadi, claiming to have no connection to paramilitary groups or terrorism. He entered America through Dallas-Fort Worth International Airport in September 2024 and later posted selfies on social media — holding a Glock — from Tulsa, Oklahoma. By May 2025, he was tracked to Lafayette, Louisiana, where he was working at a restaurant when the feds caught up to him.</p>
<p style="font-weight: 400;" data-start="1856" data-end="2231">And al-Muhtadi wasn’t acting alone. According to the complaint, he’s a known member of the National Resistance Brigades, the armed wing of the Democratic Front for the Liberation of Palestine (DFLP) — a Gazan Marxist terror organization with a long, bloody track record of murdering Israelis. The DFLP has operated alongside Hamas in multiple attacks, including on October 7.</p>
<p style="font-weight: 400;" data-start="2233" data-end="2608">Despite being previously designated a Foreign Terrorist Organization by the U.S. State Department, the DFLP was quietly removed years ago, supposedly due to its declining influence.</p>
<p style="font-weight: 400;" data-start="2610" data-end="2725">The DFLP is the same terror group responsible for some of the most <a href="https://www.camera.org/article/camera-backgrounder-democratic-front-for-the-liberation-of-palestine-dflp/?utm_source=chatgpt.com">brutal attacks</a> in Israel’s history:</p>
<ul>
<li data-start="2729" data-end="2861">1974 Ma’alot Massacre: DFLP gunmen took an entire elementary school hostage, resulting in the murder of 27, including 22 children.</li>
<li data-start="2864" data-end="2951">1975 Jerusalem bombing: Seven civilians were killed by a DFLP bomb hidden in a wagon.</li>
<li data-start="2954" data-end="3073">2002 West Bank bus ambush: Nine killed, twenty injured when DFLP terrorists bombed and opened fire on a civilian bus.</li>
