A Muslim man from Dearborn was charged with making antisemitic and racist threats to parents, young children and security at Temple Beth El, a preschool and synagogue in Bloomfield Hills. 35-year-old Hassan Yehia Chokr is charged with two counts of ethnic intimidation in connection to the threats made at Temple Beth El on Friday, Dec. 2nd.
FOX2Detroit Chokr was identified and police said they are aware of the social media posts circulating about the traffic stop. He was released from the scene pending further investigation and advised not to return to the Temple Beth El. The Bloomfield Township Police Department collaborated with the Dearborn Police Department to continue the investigation and Chokr was arrested on a different day, police said. A search warrant was also executed on his home.
Evidence was presented to the Oakland County Prosecutor hours after the initial stop was made. The Prosecutor issued a warrant for two felony counts of ethnic intimidation.
“Anti-semitic and racist threats or ethnic intimidation of any kind, will not be tolerated in our community, and every such incident will be investigated and prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law,” said Oakland County Prosecutor Karen D. McDonald. “Our office created Oakland County’s first Hate Crimes Unit a little over a year ago to give us the resources needed to call out, investigate and prosecute these serious crimes.”
Chokr is currently being held at the Oakland County Jail pending his arraignment.
StopAnti-Semitism Last month, as parents were dropping their children off at daycare at Temple Beth El in Bloomfield Hills, Michigan, antisemite Hassan Chokr sat in his work van filming the families while screaming antisemitic remarks out of his window that included “F*ck the Jews” and “F*ck Israel.”
After Chokr left Temple Beth El he drove to a weapons retailer and attempted to purchase a shotgun, a rifle, and a semi automatic pistol while falsely claiming he had not been previously convicted of a felony. Thankfully, he was turned away by the store owners.
Hassan Chokr is currently sitting in a Michigan prison cell on a $1 million bond, facing a ten-year sentence for his vile, antisemitic, verbal attacks on the Jewish community in Michigan. His trial date has not yet been set.

The Michigan Muslim accused of yelling anti-Semitic slurs at Jewish daycare exposed his buttocks to a judge during a virtual court appearance.
NY Post Hassan Chokr, 35, was in court for a virtual emergency bond motion hearing regarding a charge of resisting arrest in Wayne County when he mooned Judge Regina Thomas, and the court has now revoked his bond, according to FOX 2.
Chokr was out on bond when he also allegedly yelled anti-Semitic comments outside a West Bloomfield temple daycare on Friday.
The prosecutor said during the hearing that Chokr had “posted videos and statements on Instagram where he talks about buying guns and in one of his Instagram posts the defendant says ‘Your Jew tactics will only backfire on you, you have no place on this earth, Jew [expletive], Jew mother [expletives]. A storm is coming to wipe you all out of our lives.’”
Then Chokr, who had said he pleaded the Fifth, became frustrated. He began yelling and pointing at the camera during the hearing. Thomas said the court had muted Chokr’s microphone amid his outburst.
Ghulam says
1) Why did they send a FEMALE cop to arrest Hassan Chokr?
2) Why was he denied a physical appearance in the courtroom? They could have handcuffed him.
3) Now that he’s under house arrest, does that mean he will have to wear ankle bracelets or some other ID tags?
4) Will he have Internet access when he’s under house arrest?
5) Where is his defense lawyer? I don’t see one.
6) Why did he get such a lengthy sentence? Don’t you think 10 years for profanity is a bit too harsh? Even if he threatened to kill someone, it sounds excessive.

In most countries, Hassan Chokar would only be asked to do community service. Here in Singapore, that usually means street cleaning.
10 years in the UK means one third-degree murder + 2 life-threatening assaults.
10 years in the US = PROFANITY
BareNakedIslam says
It isn’t just the profanity and he hasn’t been sentenced yet. See below:

Hassan Chokr, the 35-year-old man facing ethnic intimidation charges after allegedly making antisemitic and racist threats to parents and children outside of Temple Beth El in Bloomfield Township, has now been charged in a federal criminal complaint with lying on a federal firearms form when he sought to buy a shotgun, a rifle, and a semi-automatic pistol, according to the United States Attorney’s Office.
The complaint alleges Chokr attempted to purchase three firearms on December 2, 2022, at a federal firearms licensee in Dearborn. He reportedly went to the gun shop the same day he made alleged racist threats to students and parents at the Temple Beth El in Bloomfield Township.
When attempting to purchase the guns, the feds say Chokr falsely claimed that he had not been previously convicted of a felony. They say he also falsely claimed that there were no felony charges currently pending against him. The U.S. Attorney’s Office said Chokr was convicted in 2017 of Felony Financial Transaction Device – Stealing/Retaining Without Consent. He also has a charge of Assault with a Dangerous Weapon pending in state court.
The defendant faces a maximum of ten years in prison and a $250,000 fine if convicted.
Ghulam says
Oh multiple charges including firearms. I stand corrected then.
I do support his preventive house arrest as he can be a danger to other people.
But surely he would have access to counselors who monitor mental health progress??????
BareNakedIslam says
He does have a Muslim lawyer, who claims he has mental issues. (Don’t they all?). And don’t forget, 10 years and/or $250,000 fine is the maximum he could get. No doubt, if convicted, it will be far less.
Martelson says
Because, every Muslim ‘knows’ the world just can’t get enough Islamic arse.
Az gal says
Can’t they just superglue Muslum mouths shut? Glue their assholes while they are at it.
Aaaa says
He’s insane
Condor 18 says
Dearbornistan is essentially lost to cultural Jihad. The threats will move into actual assaults and finally mass killings. Islam is a wart on the backside of the world.
David Grisez says
Here we have another case of a Muslim man following the teachings Islam as based on the Koran and the Hadiths. This is because Muhammad taught hatred of the Jewish people people in the Koran. There are many Antisemitic verses in the Koran.
