美国起诉亲巴勒斯坦抗议者, 抗议暴力的2024年NJ犹太教堂抗议活动, U.S. sues pro-Palestinian protesters over violent 2024 NJ synagogue protest, first FACE Act use at a religious site.

美国司法部根据《FACE法》对亲巴勒斯坦团体和个人提起民事诉讼,罪名是2024年11月在新泽西州犹太教堂举行抗议,指控在宗教仪式和房地产交易会上发生暴力、恐吓和扰乱事件。 The U.S. Justice Department has filed a civil lawsuit under the FACE Act against pro-Palestinian groups and individuals for a November 2024 protest at a New Jersey synagogue, alleging violence, intimidation, and disruption during a religious service and real estate fair. 这标志着1994年最初用来保护堕胎诊所的法律首次适用于宗教场所。 This marks the first time the 1994 law, originally used to protect abortion clinics, has been applied to a religious site. 司法部声称,抗议者,包括社会主义和解放党成员以及巴勒斯坦新泽西穆斯林党成员,使用高歌、武士和人身暴力来骚扰礼拜者。 The DOJ claims protesters, including members of the Party for Socialism and Liberation and Muslims for Palestine New Jersey, used chants, vuvuzelas, and physical force to harass worshippers. 该案反映了特朗普行政当局作出更广泛的努力,执行法律,打击攻击礼拜场所的行为,主张不论政治或意识形态归属如何,都给予平等保护。 The case reflects a broader effort by the Trump administration to enforce the law against attacks on houses of worship, asserting equal protection regardless of political or ideological affiliation.
