Haroon Mokhtarzada

On August 25, 2026, Mokhtarzada posted on X: "Kids in Gaza are literally forced to destroy their kites after Israel threatened anyone flying a kite with death. No one from the IDF is coming out saying 'don't worry children, of course we won't bomb you'. Is it really that hard for Israel to refrain from bombing children?..."

In 2018, it was reported that in 285 attacks, Israel lost 741 acres of forests and thousands of acres of agricultural fields and nature reserves to fires started by Gazan terrorists sending explosives attached to kites. Kite arson attacks continued into 2021, and in August 2026, kites were again sent to southern Israel, threatening renewed arson attacks from Gaza.

On September 9, 2026, Mokhtarzada posted on X in support of a post claiming that Israel had a policy of "genocide" in Gaza.

The term “genocide” was coined in 1942 and first used at the Nuremberg Trials of Nazi war criminals. Since Israel's founding in 1948, anti-Israel activists have accused Israel of "genocide" in an attempt to compare Jews to Nazis and delegitimize the creation of a Jewish state in the Land of Israel.

As of September 2026, Mokhtarzada was listed on the FEC website as having donated a total of $150,000 to American Priorities in 2026.

Also as of September 2026, Mokhtarzada was listed on the FEC website as a donor to the campaign of DSA congressional candidate Darializa Avila Chevalier, who has spread hatred of America and expressed support for terrorists.

As of September 2026, Mokhtarzada was listed on the FEC website as a donor to the campaigns of DSA congressional candidates Junaid Ahmed and Claire Valdez.

In July 2025, White Collar Fraud reported that Makhtarzada contributed $99,000 to the "New Yorkers for Lower Costs PAC," an independent PAC supporting the New York City mayoral campaign for Zohran Mamdani.

Mamdani has called for dismantling capitalism and promoted hatred of the police. He has also justified Hamas terrorism and glorified terror supporters. On his first day as mayor, he revoked executive orders designed to combat antisemitism, including increased police protection at synagogues, and nullified a ban on city officials to boycott Israel.

On October 7, 2023, Hamas murdered approximately 1,200 Israelis, kidnapped 251 and wounded thousands. War crimes included various systematic sexual crimes like gang rape and genital mutilation. Men and women were violated, even after being murdered. Victims who survived that day, including hostages, endured forms of humiliation and torture.

Gazans working in the targeted Israeli villages provided intelligence to Hamas on which families to kill and torture, including long-time employers. Many Palestinian civilians joined in and celebrated the attacks. Hamas livestreamed their crimes on social media, including to victims’ accounts for families to see.

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.

Democratic Socialists of America (DSA) is America’s largest socialist organization. Its core ideology includes anti-American, anti-Israel, anti-Western and abolitionist elements. In August 2025, DSA passed “For a Fighting Anti-Zionist DSA,” making support for Israel an expellable offense. DSA has also called to “abolish I.C.E. and capitalism.”

Following the October 7, 2023, Hamas terror attacks against Israel, DSA condemned Israel, expressed support for Hamas, endorsed anti-Israel rallies and called for members to engage in anti-Israel activism. It condemned Israeli retaliatory attacks against the IRGC and Hezbollah, as well as the U.S. attacks against the Houthi terror organization, whose slogan reads: "...Death to America / Death to Israel / A Curse upon the Jews...”

DSA first endorsed the anti-Israel Boycott, Divestment, Sanctions (BDS) movement in 2017 and it has also condemned sanctions against countries like Iran and Cuba.

The group endorses far-left politicians on the local, state and federal levels. DSA also promotes anti-Israel agitators, including DSA members Rashida Tlaib, Zohran Mamdani and Linda Sarsour.

Young Democratic Socialists of America (YDSA), DSA’s youth section active in high schools and colleges, has co-organized anti-Israel protests across the U.S. since October 7, 2023, particularly the April 2024 pro-terror encampments on university campuses.
