Hate crime hoax

A hate crime hoax is a staged crime intended to gain a hate crime enhancement, usually for the purposes of gaining victimhood, sympathy, or celebrity status. It can also occur to assist fundraising efforts for an organization.

A common element in hate crime hoaxes is that no perpetrator is ever arrested. Leftist mainstream media often sensationalize hate crime hoaxes as symptomatic of some underlying social condition that only a particular political party or piece of legislation can address. Another common element of hate crime hoaxes is public shaming of a group outside of a legislatively defined protected group.

Liberals frequently claim that the United States is a "racist" country, or that it is filled with "racists," but they need to continually fabricate "hate crimes" if they want to make any effort at proving such a claim.

Examples of hate crime hoaxes

It was found that despite the number of real anti-Trump attacks, many "pro-Trump" attacks were found to be hoaxes. The U.S. saw many fake "hate crimes" after the 2016 election, with the vast majority of them being staged by liberals to falsely frame conservatives. While the media frequently gives large coverage to these hoax hate crimes, treating them as real, it does not give that coverage to actual hate crimes against conservatives.

Hesham A. Ayyad

In 2023, the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) defended promoting the anti-Israel bogus "hate crime" by racist Arab "Palestinian" Hesham A. Ayyad.

The bogus claim was initially brought to light by the Cleveland chapter of the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR), Ayyad’s claims prompted scrutiny and a thorough police investigation, the outcome diverging significantly from his allegations, resulting in Ayyad’s detainment and the filing of charges against him.

In extensive investigation on the case, of October 22, 2023, authorities determined that Ayyad’s account of the incident was fabricated, various video sources, thoroughly reviewed and cross-referenced with the timeline of the reported incident -- all examinations directly contradicting Ayyad’s assertions regarding being hit by a vehicle and the alleged slurs that were claimed to have been said during the event.

Further scrutiny uncovered that the injuries Ayyad sustained were as a result of a violent altercation with his brother, Khalil A. Ayyad. Surveillance footage in the vicinity corroborated this revelation. Consequently, Hesham A. Ayyad faced arrest and charges encompassing making false alarms, falsification, obstructing official business, domestic violence, and assault. At thecl same time, Khalil A. Ayyad, (19) also o North Olmsted, was arrested and charged with domestic violence and assault in connection with the incident.

Worst is, days later, CAIR defended promoting the bogus "hate crime."

The case was at the days of Swords of Iron.
