The white nationalists explicitly posted a call to “bring the Nova massacre home,” expressing their desire to repeat the horrific Oct. 7 attack in Israel.

If you want to keep your terror plots a secret, don’t discuss them on X. Fighting Online Antisemitism (FOA), an Israeli non-governmental organization, followed a white supremacist account on X, in which discussions evolved from speculating vaguely about inflicting violence on Jews to making specific plans to kill them.
The white nationalists explicitly posted a call to “bring the Nova massacre home,” expressing the desire to repeat the horrific Hamas attack in Israel on Oct. 7, which, in addition to infiltrating kibbutzim, targeted attendees of the Nova Music Festival, killing hundreds of young concert goers. The X account mentioned April 1, the first night of Passover this year, when Jewish families gather to celebrate, as their target date, hoping to replicate the Hamas massacre on U.S. soil on that day.
Some of the messages posted to the account included “Honestly we don’t have to go anywhere. Everyone just wake up on April t [sic], choose violence, clean up our communities and cities” and “April 1. Delete the Invaders. Pass It On!”
FOA founder and executive director Tomer Aldubi said, “The group began discussing the acquisition of knives and celebrating the Oct. 7 atrocities as a blueprint. They explicitly stated it was ‘time for violence’ because ‘Jews don’t learn.’ We realized they were counting down to April 1.”
“The distance between an online post and a terror attack is shrinking,” he added. “This success was made possible by our trained volunteers, proving that individuals have the power to protect their communities and fight antisemitism. Join us and get training on how you too can stop the next attack.”
“The team secured a comprehensive evidentiary file, including digital fingerprints of the ringleaders, operating under specific handles, and transmitted the intelligence directly to the FBI Detroit Field Office’s hate crimes division via a confidential channel,” FOA said in a statement.
The group, which was founded in 2020, contacted X and notified the company of its findings so X could take action against the account. FOA also shared its intelligence on the plot with the FBI.
