FBI Calls Hostage Incident at Colleyville Synagogue ‘Act of Terrorism’ Against Jewish Community

‘This was not some random occurrence’

EXCERPT:

WRAY: "And let me be clear and blunt: the FBI is and has been treating Saturday’s events as an act of terrorism targeting the Jewish community."
FINK (voice-over): "The FBI director said agents are continuing to investigate why the British national specifically targeted Congregation Beth Israel in Colleyville and held Rabbi, Charlie-Cytron-Walker, Jeffrey Cohen and two other congregants at gunpoint. But during a webinar by the Anti-Defamation League, Wray spoke about a broader truth."
WRAY: "This was not some random occurrence. It was intentional, it was symbolic, and we’re not going to tolerate anti-Semitism in this country. (...) No member of a faith-based community should have to worry about acts of violence at their services."
