Jihadi who participated in Oct. 7 jihad massacre found living in Louisiana

They vetted him just like they vetted Hussein Obama back in the day….

If efforts are made to deport this jihadi, will the left fight for him as hard as it has fought for Mahmoud Khalil? Almost certainly.

Musel-man arrested by the FBI in Louisiana for participating in the October 7 massacre

 
Mahmoud Amin Ya-qub Al-Muhtadi is accused of being a member of the DFLP terrorist organization’s military wing and invading Israel from Gaza on October 7, 2023.

Al-Muhtadi apparently was alerted to Hamas’s invasion of southern Israel just minutes after it began, and coordinated a group of armed terrorists to join him in taking part in the massacre. His cell phone connected to a cell tower near Kibbutz Kfar Aza later that morning.

He reportedly entered the US in September 2024 on an immigrant visa after lying on his application. He resided in Tulsa, Oklahoma, where he apparently took and shared pictures of himself and his children handling a gun, until May 2025. From June 2025 to September 2025, it appears he was living and working at a restaurant in Lafayette, Louisiana.

“FBI arrests alleged pro-Hamas Oct. 7 attacker living in Louisiana,” by Greg Norman, Fox News, October 17, 2025:

The FBI has arrested a suspect in Louisiana who allegedly took part in Hamas’ Oct. 7, 2023, attack on Israel.

Mahmoud Amin Ya-qub Al-Muhtadi, a resident of Lafayette, Louisiana, is accused of violating terrorism laws by helping or attempting to help a foreign terrorist organization through his alleged involvement in the Oct. 7, 2023, Hamas-led attack on Israel, according to an affidavit. He is also accused of fraud and misuse of visa, permits and other documents.

Al-Muhtadi is accused of being a member of Hamas and the Democratic Front for the Liberation of Palestine’s (DFLP) armed wing, the National Resistance Brigades (NRB), and commanding or coordinating NRB fighters who joined Hamas units for the incursion, the affidavit reads.

“Evidence shows that on the morning of October 7, 2023, Al-Muhtadi learned about the Hamas invasion, armed himself, gathered others and crossed into Israel with the intention of assisting in Hamas’s terrorist attack,” per the affidavit.

Cell-tower data placed his phone inside Israel near Kibbutz Kfar Aza, one of the sites where Hamas and its supporters carried out a brutal massacre.

He was also captured in multiple intercepted calls and recordings talking about moving fighters and arms into Israel and was recorded celebrating the kidnappings that occurred that morning….

“Evidence further shows that Al-Muhtadi provided false information in his U.S. Visa application relating to his involvement with a paramilitary organization, connection to Hamas, participation in a terrorist attack, and military training.”

“As a result of that false application, Al-Muhtadi was able to obtain permission to travel to the United States and obtain Legal Permanent Resident status. Al-Muhtadi is currently residing and working in Lafeyette, Louisiana,” it added….
