Garbo: Boulder wasn’t a clash, it was terrorism

By C. J. Garbo | Guest Commentary, Rocky Mountain Voice What happened in Boulder was an act of terrorism, plain and simple. The alleged actions of Mohamed Sabry Soliman, targeting Jews in what authorities have rightly identified as an ideologically motivated, antisemitic attack, must be condemned in the strongest possible terms. It was not a “disturbance,” or a “clash,” or a “misunderstanding.” It was hate. And it was violent, deliberate, and evil.

Herf: When ‘Free Palestine’ becomes a pretext for terrorism
