On October 11, 2023, Almansoob posted on X: “LeIgnorant” in response to another post on X by LeBron James expressing sympathy with the Israeli civilians affected by Hamas’s October 7, 2023 terror attack.
Almansoob reposted a November 22, 2023 post on X that said: “...Resistance fighters do not emerge randomly.”
Anti-Israel activists use the term “resistance” to refer to violence and terror perpetrated against Israeli civilians and their allies. It is used to glorify and encourage anti-Israel and anti-Semitic violence. Anti-Israel activists chant slogans such as: “Resistance by any means necessary!” and “Resistance is justified when people are occupied!” in response to terror attacks.
Almansoob reposted a November 23, 2023 post on X that said in Arabic, referring to Houthi terrorists: “يمن العروبة والإسلام الذين حركتهم صرخات أهلنا ونداءات مقاومتنا - أبو عبيدة [Yemen of Arabism and Islam, moved by the cries of our people and the calls of our resistance - Abu Obeida].”
Following the outbreak of Israel’s 2023 war against Hamas, Houthi terrorists attacked commercial ships off Yemen’s Red Sea coast and launched missiles into southern Israel. Like Hamas, the Houthi movement is backed by Iran, and is designated as a terror group by the United States, Saudi Arabia and other countries. The Houthi slogan translated into English reads: “God is the Greatest / Death to America / Death to Israel / A Curse Upon the Jews / Victory to Islam.”
Abu Obeida is the official spokesperson for the Izz ad-Din al-Qassam Brigades — the armed wing of Hamas.
On December 15, 2023, Almansoob posted on X, referring to Houthi terrorists: “May Allah protect Yemen from any imminent discord and evil. The west will have plans to dismantle and create further instability in the country as a retaliation to the events in the Red Sea.”
On January 11, 2024, Almansoob posted on X, referring to Houthi terrorists: “May Allah protect Yemen. May @JoeBiden go to hell.”
On October 30, 2014, Almansoob tweeted: “at least hitler had a vast majority supporting him, this guy is a dog.” Almansoob was responding to another tweet likening Israeli prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu to Adolf Hitler.
The International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance (IHRA) highlights as one possible contemporary example of anti-Semitism: “Drawing comparisons of contemporary Israeli policy to that of the Nazis.” The U.S. State Department adopted the IHRA’s working definition of anti-Semitism in 2016. Over 40 countries have adopted the definition as well.
On November 17, 2014, Almansoob tweeted: “...I love hitler.” Almansoob’s tweet was in response to another tweet that read: “Can we just all hate zionists and shush.”
On October 11, 2015, Almansoob tweeted a picture of Yasser Arafat and wrote: “May Alllah rest your soul in peace…”
Yasser Arafat was the former leader of the Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO) and is known by some as the “father of modern terrorism.” Arafat reportedly told Arab diplomats in a secret meeting in 1996: “We will make life unbearable for Jews by psychological warfare and population explosion. Jews will not want to live among Arabs. I have no use for Jews. They are and remain Jews."
On August 26, 2014, Almansoob tweeted: “...the only group I’ve been seeing implementing permissible jihad is hamas.”
Hamas has been designated as a terrorist organization by the U.S., Canada, European Union, Israel and other countries. Founded in 1987, it has killed thousands of Israeli civilians through mass shootings and suicide bombings. Hamas has also kidnapped children, families and the elderly and held them hostage in Gaza. It has desecrated [slide 7] dead bodies and launched numerous rocket attacks against Israeli civilians.
On July 18, 2014, Almansoob tweeted: “Await hell now nd in the hereafter, u zionists are going to collapse just like the nazis, not by the help of the UN but by ALQASAM WARRIORS.”
The Izz ad-Din al-Qassam Brigades is the military wing of Hamas.
On May 14, 2015, Almansoob tweeted, referring to Israel: “...I respect all ethnic groups, I just don’t respect those who praise a flag of a Zionist state.”
On May 14, 2015, Almansoob tweeted: “...f**k every Kurd that supports Israel, Better?”

Almansoob reposted a January 8, 2025 post on X that included a picture of the destruction of the Los Angeles wildfires with the caption: “💔This is Los Angeles today, not Gaza. / The US should focus on solving its OWN CRISES instead of funding GENOCIDES abroad!”
Almansoob reposted another January 8, 2025 post on X that had a video of the Los Angeles wildfires with the caption: “Whether it is Biden or Trump, Israel is the focus they must take care of! The US government is loyal to Israel, not the American people.”
On October 17, 2023, Almansoob posted on X: “...Israel bombs a hospital full of patients due to their own crimes in Gaza with a death toll reaching 1000+ & the world watches in silence.”
On October 17, 2023, the terror group Palestinian Islamic Jihad (PIJ) fired rockets at Israel from Gaza, one of which misfired and fell on the parking lot of the al-Ahli Arab Baptist Hospital. Initial media reports blamed Israel. Following the incident, U.S. Congresswoman Rashida Tlaib immediately accused the Biden administration of funding Israel’s “genocide” of Palestinian people.
On December 31, 2016, Almansoob tweeted: “LMFAOOOOOOOOOOOO PEANUT BUTTER AND ISRAEL DONT MIX LMFAOOOOOO S**T WITH ISRAEL MIXES LMFAOOOOO.”
On March 2, 2015, Almansoob tweeted: “The Palestinian case isn’t a political case as the portray it to be , it's an occupation, a genocide and invasion.”
The Boycott, Divestment, Sanctions (BDS) movement was founded by pro-terror activist Omar Barghouti in 2005 to turn “Israel into a pariah state, as South Africa once was.” Barghouti has also called for Israel's destruction and the BDS movement demands would result in that same goal.
BDS initiatives include calling on institutions and individuals to divest from Israeli-affiliated companies, promoting academic and cultural boycotts of Israel, and organizing anti-Israel rallies, protests and campaigns.
The movement’s most notable achievement has been infiltrating university campuses through lobbying for “BDS resolutions.” In these cases, student governments propose resolutions to boycott or divestment from Israel or Israeli-affiliated entities. BDS activity is often aggressive and disruptive. It has been noted that universities that pass BDS resolutions see a marked increase in anti-Semitic incidents and pro-terror activism on campus.
