The United States (US) has been urged to designate a free Palestine as a terrorist organization.

Investigative journalists Sloan Rachmuth and Laura Luma have asked U.S President Donald Trump to fight the Movement after the shooting incident in New Hampshire.

In a statement on X, Rachmuth attached the headline of a news story indicating that the shooter shouted “Free Palestine” before opening fire.

Designate the “Free Palestine” movement as a terrorist organization.

Laura Luma slammed National Counter Terrorism Center (NCTC) Director Joe Kent for barring journalists from referring to such incidents as Islamic terrorism.

Luma accused Kent of focusing on criticizing Trump’s supporters on social media instead of handling Palestinian terror threats in the U.S

We can’t do that because the Director of the National Counter Terrorism Center (NCTC) Director doesn’t think we should refer to Islamic terrorism as Islamic terrorism. He’s too busy attacking Trump supporters on X instead of dealing with the Palestinian Islamic terror threat on US soil.

New Hampshire Shooting Incident

A shooting early Sunday at a golf club in Nashua left one person dead and several others injured.

New Hampshire authorities have arrested a suspect in connection with the incident.

Initial reports indicated the presence of two shooters, but security camera footage confirmed that only one individual was responsible.

An eyewitness said the attackers shouted pro-Palestinian slogans, including “Free Palestine,” before opening fire.

The witness said he saw the suspect inside a nearby restaurant adjacent to the wedding hall.

Someone then struck the suspect on the head with a chair, and he fled the scene while bleeding.

“He looked like a target, that he was going right for this person. So, I feel terrible for him. What he said was the children were safe and, you know, ‘Free Palestine,’” the witness said.
