"They will just take a Kalashnikov or an old hunting rifle, and ‘I'm going hunting for Zionist, you wanna come?’

Seattle activists affiliated with the youth wing of the terror-linked Masar Badil movement hosted the son of Hezbollah commander Imad Mughniyeh for a webinar in which he praised the 1983 Marine barracks bombing and said he becomes “happy” when he sees “Zionist corpses.”
According to a new report from MEMRI, the June 20 webinar was hosted by Kimaya Mahajan and Jessica Schutz of Tariq El-Tahrir Seattle, the student and youth wing of Masar Badil, also known as the Palestinian Alternative Revolutionary Path Movement.
The featured speaker was Hussain Mughniyeh, son of senior Hezbollah military commander Imad Mughniyeh, who was killed by Israel in 2008. Mughniyeh serves as a journalist and archivist of his father’s legacy for Hezbollah.
During the webinar, Mughniyeh praised his father’s role in the 1983 Marine barracks bombing in Beirut, which killed 241 US service members, calling it one of the “greatest and largest attacks” ever carried out against an international force deployed in another country.
“Around ‘83, which is by the time that the US Marines and the French Paratroopers bombing happened, those are the greatest—even considered by the US—the greatest and largest attacks that an international force deployed on a different country possibly took. 241 Marines were practically wiped out in a single night. It was [so] devastating for the U.S. that they remember it to this very day,” Mughniyeh said, according to MEMRI.
Mughniyeh also claimed his father “was about to help Syria build its own nuclear plant” using “some North Korean scientists.”
“He used the aid of some North Korean scientists, their knowledge and their information, in addition to some people in the Syrian government, to start something called a pile. A pile is the first test run of a nuclear power engine,” he said.
Mughniyeh also described villagers in southern Lebanon keeping scoreboards of how many Israelis had been killed each day. “I swear to you, in many villages people would keep scoreboards for how many Israelis did you shoot that day. Like we're going hunting soldiers you're coming with us, that was like the afternoon getaway for some of those southerners. They will just take a Kalashnikov or an old hunting rifle, and ‘I'm going hunting for Zionist, you wanna come?’ That was the turning point.”
He later added: “The more I see Zionist corpses, the more happy I am and the happier I become and that's how I determine. I just count like, ‘Okay a couple of Zionist died today, cool that's it, that's all I need to know.’”
According to MEMRI, Mahajan told participants the purpose of Masar Badil and Tariq El-Tahrir events is to connect Western activists with “what is actually happening in the region.”
“Part of the objectives of the Masar Badil and of Tariq Al-Tahrir events like this is to bridge the Western movement with what is actually happening in the region, and connecting like, our political strategy and political line to be directly a part of the international movement and not just this separate force of solidarity or something,” Mahajan said.
The webinar comes as Masar Badil and Samidoun have faced mounting scrutiny over alleged ties to the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP). The US Treasury Department designated Samidoun in 2024 as “a sham charity” serving as an international fundraiser for the PFLP, which has been designated by the State Department as a Foreign Terrorist Organization. Treasury also designated Khaled Barakat, describing him as part of the PFLP’s leadership and a key fundraiser.
Radical anti-Israel groups in Washington have appeared alongside or in coalition with organizations such as Samidoun, which has been sanctioned by the US and Canada for alleged PFLP ties.
Mahajan and Schutz were also among the 33 defendants tied to the occupation of the University of Washington’s Interdisciplinary Engineering Building. Both were listed with Criminal Trespass – 1st Degree, probable cause found, and release on personal recognizance. The pair are members of SUPER UW, the pro-Palestinian University of Washington group whose members were involved in the building occupation. The group has since been suspended as an official student group.
The UW occupation left the engineering building with nearly $1 million in damage, including smashed lab equipment. Prosecutors charged 33 people with first-degree misdemeanor criminal trespass but declined felony charges after investigators could not determine who caused the damage.
Masar Badil has also promoted Nidal Seattle, describing it as part of the local “liberation movement” during anti-Israel demonstrations in Seattle. In an August 2025 post, Masar Badil said “Nidal Seattle, along with other allies in the liberation movement,” took to the streets and chanted slogans calling for the expulsion of the US and the “zionist entity” from the region.
The webinar ended with Mughniyeh thanking the hosts and promising to provide them with additional recordings of his father. “Any time you call upon me for something like this, I’ll try my best to be there. You’ve got me whenever you need me. A lot of love and respect to you guys,” he said.
