UMD research assistant’s sick call to bomb LA and Miami to wipe out Trump-supporting immigrants
NY Post
A far-left University of Maryland research assistant is facing backlash after appearing to joke about bombing parts of Los Angeles and Miami to kill Cuban and Iranian Americans who support President Trump’s military strikes against Iran.
Djamil Lakhdar-Hamina made the incendiary remarks in a video that was streamed on YouTube on March 1 on a channel belonging to Cosmonaut Magazine, a socialist publication.
In the clip, Lakhdar-Hamina criticizes members of the Iranian diaspora who support US military action against the Iranian regime before launching into a shocking comment suggesting American cities with immigrant communities should be bombed.
“Seeing the Iranian diaspora just cheer on their country getting just bombed — there has to be an Olympic competition between the worst gusanos in the world on the podium, competing for gold,” Lakhdar-Hamina said in the video.
“You have the Cubans on the one side and the Iranians on the other, you know. Just bomb large swaths of LA and Miami. It’d be a better planet for it.”
The term “gusanos,” which translates to “worms” in Spanish, has historically been used as a slur by the Cuban communist regime to describe Cuban exiles and critics of Fidel Castro.

“Everyone is worrying about what comes next,” reports David Patrikarakos at The Free Press of what people in Iran are telling him. He talked to “a friend in Tehran I will call Reza. ‘The bombing is heavy,’ he told me. ‘And it’s frightening. But we have been frightened and terrorized for almost 50 years.’ ” No one sees any “signs of mass uprising — it’s just too dangerous” as “gangs of Basij enforcers, often heavily armed, roam the streets, threatening civilians and forcing them indoors.” Indeed, “the entire regime is now on a war footing,” but: “The state is in disarray. Senior officials are scattered and confused” and “an internal power struggle appears to be under way.” He concludes: “Despite the Islamic Republic’s best efforts, the battle for Iran — by both external powers and Iranians inside the country — is far from over. It may take time, but I am convinced this regime will fall.”
