Alleged synagogue vandals in Pennsylvania praised Rep. Lee’s anti-Israel advocacy
Talya Lubit and Mohamad Hamad have been charged with spray-painting a Hamas triangle and anti-Jewish slogans; they also donated to House reps and signed a letter pushing for a ceasefire.

Two individuals charged with vandalizing Pittsburgh Jewish organizations have expressed support for Reps. Summer Lee (D-Pa.), Rashida Tlaib (D-Mich.) and Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.)—members of the progressive, anti-Israel “Squad” in the U.S. House of Representatives, according to The Washington Free Beacon.
Pennsylvania law enforcement says that Talya Lubit and Mohamad Hamad spray-painted an inverted red Hamas triangle with “Jews 4 Palestine” at the Chabad of Squirrel Hill and “Hate Zionists” at the Jewish Federation of Greater Pittsburgh.
On Nov. 20, 2023—one month after the Oct. 7 Hamas terrorist attacks in southern Israel that killed 1,200 people—Lee published an open letter calling for a ceasefire between Israel and Hamas in Gaza signed by more than “130 members of the Pittsburgh Jewish Community.” It included Lubit’s name.
