Holy crap at the dude tackling one of the shooters.

📹 “Gunman tackled by member of the public at Bondi Beach.” [The video below contains no gore, only one shot being fired somewhere off camera.]

Ahmed al Ahmed, a local fruit stand owner. He was shot twice, and is being hailed as a hero by the NSW premier.

Balls of lead man, absolute hero.

I'm assuming it's someone who thinks they're getting revenge for Israel's genocide in Gaza. Almost everyone I've met who would celebrate Hanukkah is no fan of Netanyahu's war crimes but I guess for some Jewish = Israeli.

The Zionists are guilty in that case. They're the ones pushing a narrative to the contrary.

Or a neo-Nazi, or some incel who has no coherent political views but a formless rage, and knows nothing about Jews except that killing them is very edgy and would eclipse the shame of being a virgin with a vast porn collection.

The part a lot of people don't want to admit is just how close these two ideologies have gotten in the past two years

past two years

I don't think that's true.

Fascists have been like this since D'Annunzio.

Incels and neonazis?

[-] pulsewidth@lemmy.world 13 points 20 hours ago

Assuming helps nobody. Wait for the motives to be revealed by the investigators.

There's already a bunch of anti-Muslim statements rising on the usual places (YT, FB) because the only shooter identified so far has an Arabic-origin name.

So does the guy who tackled one of the shooters, apparently, but of course they won't be mentioning him, because he doesn't fit in their narrative...

i heard that on the news. where did you hear it not being mentioned?

[-] leftzero@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 15 hours ago

They being the ones posting the usual bullshit on social media which the comment I was replying to mentioned.

[-] x00z@lemmy.world 5 points 18 hours ago

Maybe.

But you're right that some people think that Jews and Israel are almost the same. It's part of Israel's propaganda.

[-] foenkyfjutschah@programming.dev 2 points 17 hours ago

usually antisemites hate everything jewish.

[-] cassandrafatigue@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 44 minutes ago

Old use. Now antisemites usually hate children being raped to near death by packs of trained rape-dogs then shot in the head in a bombed out crater that used to be a hospital.

My closest Jewish friend has shared how members of his family was forcibly removed from where they lived in Palestine because it was designated as an Arab zone during the same period as the Nakba. He blames zionists for it. At least his family didn’t end up stateless as a result, but I still can’t imagine how terrible being forced out of your home for something out of your control would be.

[-] pilferjinx@piefed.social 3 points 18 hours ago

I am curious how the Palestinian Jews generally viewed the eastern European zionists fucking up the region.

[-] NOT_RICK@lemmy.world 4 points 18 hours ago

He said his family was pissed as they felt the Zionist influx fucked up their community. Not sure how popular of a sentiment that was, though.

They don’t celebrate Hanukkah in Israel?

[-] BakerBagel@midwest.social 15 points 20 hours ago

Hanukah is a traditional, albeit minor, Jewish holiday, it is mainly celebrated in the US to stop Jewish kids from getting jealous of their Christian peers getting to celebrate Christmas.

"Everyone I've met" (I have been to Israel a few times over my lifetime, but I haven't talked to anyone from there recently)
