Accident – Death – Obituary News :

President Joe Biden expressed his deep concern on Monday regarding reports of a woman allegedly trying to drown a Palestinian-American child at a pool in Texas. The incident, which occurred in May, has sparked outrage and garnered national attention over the weekend.

Court records reveal that the accused, 42-year-old Elizabeth Wolf, has been charged with capital murder in connection with the disturbing event that took place at a suburban apartment pool near Dallas. According to US media reports, Wolf targeted a mother wearing a hijab and inquired about her six-year-old son and three-year-old daughter. She also made racial remarks during the encounter.

Witnesses stated that Wolf first attempted to grab the boy, who managed to break free, before turning her attention to the girl and pushing her underwater. The shocking nature of the incident has left many in disbelief.

President Biden, speaking on the matter, expressed his sympathy for the family affected by the traumatic event. “No child should ever be subjected to a violent attack, and my heart goes out to the family,” he stated. The President further added, “I am deeply disturbed by the reports of an attempted drowning of a 3-year old Palestinian-American at a neighborhood pool.”

Following the incident, the Texas chapter of the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) called for a hate crimes investigation and held a press conference to address the situation. In a statement released by CAIR, the mother of the children clarified that her family are American citizens of Palestinian descent.

The incident comes at a time when tensions surrounding the conflict in Gaza have heightened emotions in the United States, particularly on college campuses where protests have been prevalent. Unfortunately, this has also led to an increase in anti-Semitic and Islamophobic acts across the country.

Tragically, similar incidents have occurred in the past, such as the shooting of three students of Palestinian origin in Vermont last November and the stabbing of a six-year-old Muslim boy near Chicago in October. These acts of violence are a stark reminder of the impact of international conflicts on communities within the US.
