Austin, February 6 (RHC)-- In the U.S. state of Texas, a man attacked four young Muslim Americans who were driving home from a protest for Palestinian rights in Austin Sunday.  Three of the victims are Palestinian Americans, including a 23-year-old who was stabbed after the attacker pulled them out of the car. 

Eye-witnesses say the suspect, who has been identified as Bert James Baker, yelled obscenities, including the N-word, and tried to rip off a keffiyeh hanging from the car. 

The Council on American-Islamic Relations, CAIR, is calling on authorities to charge Baker with hate crimes, saying: “Those responsible for this violence must be prosecuted to the full extent of the law…and those fomenting the anti-Palestinian and anti-Muslim hate that leads to this violence must be condemned.”
