Dar Al-Farooq mosque bombed by an Illinois militia
August 5, 2017
Bloomington, Minnesota
Just after 5 a.m. on August 5, 2017, with worshippers already inside for morning prayer, a pipe bomb thrown through the smashed window of the imam's office went off at this Bloomington mosque and set the room on fire. Nobody was hurt. The attackers were three members of a small militia from Clarence, Illinois, who meant to frighten Muslims into leaving the country. Two pleaded guilty, and their leader, Emily Claire Hari, then known as Michael Hari, was convicted at a federal trial in 2020 and sentenced to 53 years.
That was 1 of the hidden places.
