Description: In a tragic event, a peaceful pro-Israel rally in Boulder, Colorado, was violently disrupted when Mohamed Sabry Soliman, a 45-year-old Egyptian national, attacked participants with a makeshift flamethrower and Molotov cocktails, injuring 12 individuals, including a Holocaust survivor. Soliman, who had planned the attack for over a year, expressed anti-Zionist motives and is facing multiple charges, including attempted murder and federal hate crimes. The FBI is treating the incident as a targeted act of terrorism fueled by antisemitism.   In lighter news, NBA legend Shaquille O'Neal has publicly distanced himself from the "celebrity" label, stating that he prefers to be seen as a regular person rather than being associated with the negative connotations he believes come with celebrity status. Additionally, the 2025 BET Awards will honor four entertainment legends—Mariah Carey, Jamie Foxx, Snoop Dogg, and Kirk Franklin—with the prestigious Ultimate Icon Award, recognizing their decades of contributions to music, entertainment, and community impact.  Website: https://www.urban1podcasts.com/rickey-smiley-morning-show  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
