A Saudi national, who was apparently channeling his inner low-budget Die Hard villain, has been charged after he decided the best way to make a political statement was by stealing a school bus in New Jersey and taking it on a joyride to Pennsylvania.

24-year-old Bader Alzahrani left his calling card in the form of a backpack full of journals with the kind of deep political insight that makes Kamala Harris (after her morning mug of wine) seem like Churchill:

'Blood, blood, destruction, destruction. Allah'

'Why didn't you slaughter the police officer who threw the Quran?'

'This is a war, and there will be losses, and collateral losses.'

'It is a war and y'all [sic] started, feel the rage.'

'Destruction of the new world and the earth will be destroyed from all sides.'

'God I am ready for your orders. I want to live the rest of my life to serve you and the religion.'

'Jews control everything.'

'F*** each and every Jewish person.'

'F*** you privileged whitey.'

According to the Department of Justice, Alzahrani — who was in the country on a student visa, but skipped out of school almost two years ago — stole a bus on January 17, 2023 … right across from a house he broke into two days earlier, where he left his passport and journals.

And these bigoted breadcrumbs led him straight to federal prison.

Those pesky Jews!
