According to Reuters, the US Department of Homeland Security identified the 'war between the US/Israel and Iran' as a potential motive for the suspect in the attempted assassination shooting of US President Donald Trump that occurred at the White House Correspondents' Dinner last month. The suspect is accused of attempting to assassinate President Trump and senior government officials. According to an initial assessment report from the Department of Homeland Security's Office of Intelligence and Analysis, dated April 27 (local time) and obtained by Reuters, the Iran conflict "likely prompted Allen (the suspect) to commit the shooting." The report also cited Allen's social media posts criticizing US actions during the war as evidence. This report was distributed to state and local law enforcement agencies and federal agencies across the US, and was obtained by the non-profit organization Property of the People through a public records request.
