These began in 1977 and have continued regularly since, as suggested by the following list of major incidents (ignoring lesser ones that did damage only to property, such a series of attacks on Chicago-area synagogues):

  • November 1990: El Sayyid Nosair assassinated Rabbi Meir Kahane in a New York hotel.

  • February 1993: Ramzi Yusuf, the mastermind of the bombing of the World Trade Centerin New York, which claimed 7 lives and injured more than a thousand people,, declared the towers not a civilian target but a military one, by virtue of the fact that it might house a “Zionist official.”

  • June 1993: “Boom! Broken windows. Jews in the street,” is how one of the plotters described the carnage that would ensue from a planned “day of terror” with simultaneous bombings of the United Nations complex, the Lincoln and Holland tunnels, and other New York landmarks.

  • March 1994: Rashid Baz, a Palestinian immigrant, opened fire on a van carrying Orthodox Jewish boys across the Brooklyn Bridge, killing 16-year-old Ari Halberstam.

  • July 1997: ‘Ali Hasan Abu Kamal, a 69-year-old Palestinian, shot seven tourists atop theEmpire State building, killing one and severely wounding another; in his suicide note, he accused the United States of using Israel as “an instrument” against the Palestinians.

  • July 1997: Ghazi Ibrahim Abu Maizar’s near-explosion of a pipe bomb in the New York City subway system.

  • July 2002: Hesham Mohamed Ali Hadayet’s attack on the El Al counter at Los Angeles International Airport, killing two.

  • September 2005: Jam’iyyat Ul-Islam Is-Saheeh plot against two Los Angeles-area synagogues, disrupted due to a dropped mobile phone.

  • July 2006 : Naveed Haq assaulted the Jewish Federation of Greater Seattle, murdering one and injuring five.
