Will Ventura Community College dismiss Loay Alnaji? Or give him an award?
An update on this story. “EXCLUSIVE: College professor Loay Alnaji is named as the pro-Palestinian ‘who killed Jewish protestor Paul Kessler’ when rival rallies clashed in Thousand Oaks, California,” by Josh Boswell and Martin Gould, DailyMail.com, November 8, 2023:
The man who police have questioned in relation to the death of a Jewish man during a clash with pro-Palestinian protestors is a 50-year-old college professor, DailyMail.com can reveal.
Loay Alnaji, who teaches computer science at Ventura Community College in California, allegedly hit Paul Kessler with a megaphone knocking him to the ground.
Police raided his home on a quiet cul-de-sac in Moorpark, California, on Sunday evening, we have learned.
‘My husband was getting home from Costco when he saw a SWAT team, six cops with rifles and full gear. Their vehicles were not police cars, they were unmarked,’ neighbor Milli Revezzo told DailyMail.com.
‘It’s shocking,’ added Revezzo, a realtor. ‘As a Moorpark resident I don’t like when anything happens here, as we’re known as one of the safest cities.’
Alnaji is unabashed in his support for the Palestinian cause, posting online a video of an activist Shahid King Bolsen comparing the terror group Hamas with historic civil rights icons.
‘If someone asked me to condemn Hamas I would say, what’s the rush?’ Bolsen says in the video posted on Instagram. ‘Let’s let history decide.
‘You condemned Nelson Mandela until you didn’t, until he was a hero,’ he adds. ‘You condemned Mahatma Gandhi until you didn’t.
‘Let’s wait and see because you might change you mind on this one too.
Bolsen, who was born Shannon Morris, is a 52-year-old American Catholic convert to slam [sic] who was sentenced to death in Dubai for murder. The court later reduced his conviction to manslaughter and he was released after paying compensation to the victim’s family, the New York Times reported in 2015.
Denver-based Bolsen has been accused of inciting violence against Americans and US businesses in Egypt, a claim which he denied.
Kessler, 69, was struck down in Thousand Oaks, California, northwest of Los Angeles, when two rival groups protesting events in Israel and Gaza clashed. He died in the hospital the following day.
The injury that killed him is believed to have occurred when his head hit the pavement.
The Jewish Federation of Greater Los Angeles claimed Kessler was ‘struck in the head by a megaphone wielded by a pro-Palestinian protestor.’
Witnesses say the two sides began antagonizing each other and then it turned physical.
‘They were both on an even ground, and they were yelling at each other, and then the man brought his megaphone up and hit Paul, and Paul went down,’ one unidentified witness told ABC Los Angeles….
Records show that Alnaji came to the United States in the 1990s – he had previously taught in the United Arab Emirates….
On his Facebook page he has posted several messages in Arabic supporting the Palestinian cause.
In his most recent from three weeks ago, he wrote: ‘O Allah, release the captivity of the Al-Aqsa Mosque… Sooner than later……..Oh Allah, don’t deprive us of praying in it before we die…
‘Oh God, give victory to your weak servants in Palestine, and everywhere…O Allah, bind their hearts with the bond of patience and faith..’…
At 3:20 pm the two sides clashed and Alnaji allegedly hit Kessler in the face with his megaphone causing him to fall to the ground and hit his head….
An autopsy determined he died from a blunt force head injury and the manner of death was ruled a homicide. The Jewish Federation of Greater Los Angeles has called his death ‘an anti-Semitic crime’….
Fryhoff said, ‘Investigators have not ruled out the possibility of a hate crime and this is being investigated as a homicide.’…

This Muslim targeted Kessler and then struck him with his Megaphone in a fit of rage and malice. This guy needs to be convicted of a hate crime and murder. I will follow this closely and if no charges it will be because of a Woke district attorney and Federal prosecutor.

Does Ventura county fall under George Gascoigne’s jurisdiction? If it does, Mr Kessler would be SOL in receiving justice. It’s still a disgrace that the college hasn’t already come out w/ a statement disowning and terminating Loay Alnaji. On top of that, is Alnaji a citizen? If not, his status should be cancelled and he should be deported to wherever he came from
bagsgroove says
Yeah,he came from hell and he should be deported there.
maria says
alnaji must be hanged
Bexarkat says
It seems when someone converts to Islam, it brings out the very worst in them. The evil that his previous Judeo-Christian beliefs contained deep within him, was unleashed the moment of his conversion to Islam.
JoAnn Leichliter says
This is the most information about the perpetrator that I have found thus far. Thank you. There is clearly a media coverup.
Davidka says
One side note. Mr. Kessler was a small man and in his sixties. Would it surprise anyone if this thug targeted him for those reasons rather than attack someone his own size?
