Afghan Terror Suspect Shockingly Listed as ‘White’ in Jail Records

Mohammad Dawood Alokozay, 30, caught threatening to build a bomb and “kill the infidels,” has been bizarrely classified as “White” in official jail logs. Despite his Afghan roots, Alokozay’s racial category in Tarrant County Corrections Center records reads “White” – sparking outrage and confusion.

Federal Rules Force Middle Easterners into ‘White’ Box

  • FBI and federal crime reporting lump Middle Eastern and North African (MENA) individuals as White due to no separate category existing.
  • This archaic rule bundles Afghans, Iranians, Arabs, and North Africans alongside Europeans in official statistics.
  • Civil rights groups and demographers slam it as a harmful oversimplification that erases cultural and ethnic realities.

Fury Erupts as Conservatives Slam Data Flaw

Independent journalist Breanna Morello exposed the racial misclassification on social media, igniting a firestorm of criticism. Right-wing outlets like The Gateway Pundit seized on the story, spotlighting immigration vetting failures and misleading crime stats.

“Classifying an Afghan terror suspect as White distorts crime data and deceives the public about who is committing serious offences,” critics said.

Tarrant County officials remain silent. Alokozay’s ‘White’ tag still appears on the inmate search, fueling public frustration.

Racial Data Debate Heats Up

  • Immigration hardliners demand accurate ethnic data for public safety and immigration policy.
  • Others warn that adding more categories could complicate data collection and risk misuse.
  • Calls for a dedicated MENA category on federal forms continue to be ignored.

Alokozay made headlines after posting terror threats on TikTok, yet official records erase his Middle Eastern identity by marking him White. Until federal standards catch up, Middle Eastern suspects will keep being shoehorned into the wrong boxes, keeping this controversy alive and kicking.
