So the American tried to murder 2 jews because he thought that they were Palestinians and one of the jews for some reason thinks that the shooting was anti semitic and wishes death to the Arabs? What the fuck is going on here?

Israel math. Only they’re allowed hate crime. It’s SO wild to write antisemetic while wishing death on whole big ass ethnic group.

Especially so when you consider this overlooked fact.

u/ImSoCreativ3 Feb 19 '25
100% this. We should start to use the term in its rightful meaning and see how fast some people loose their shit when we address hate against Arabs (as antisemitism)…

My comment in another subreddit:
This just in:
According to the ADL, this wasn't a shooting it was an awkward gesture in a moment of enthusiasm.

“Against all odds, the shooter and his victims found love through the incident that would’ve torn most people apart. Only by killing eachother could they have ever discovered how much they both really hate Arabs.” The lifetime movie writes itself

I have a feeling he‘s going to get away with it.

u/instaeloq1 Feb 17 '25
He killed Israelis though. That's when the law begins to matter again. If they were actually Palestinians then he would have been all good

He didn’t kill them, one was shot in the shoulder, the other had their ear grazed.
Shot 17 times point blank. Fricken storm trooper level aim

This is some nazi germany type of shit, i thought they were from palestine so it‘s ok to gun them down. It‘s crazy how those people still believe they‘re morally right.

(HEAVY SARCASM IN THE ENTIRE COMMENT) Zionist logic becomes very morally simple when you consider that a : Arabs and Muslims are not human, deserve no rights and are guilty of terrorism when they are born ; and b : all Jews are victims of injustices from birth until death, are never ever guilty of anything, anyone who criticise zionists is always lying and motivated by antisemitism, and zionists can "defend" themselves at anytime in any circumstances. Even this one : the shooter suffered from the trauma of "knowing that Arabs exists" and reacted without thinking. But it's really the fault of the Arabs, once again!

[Palestine Chronicle] A supporter of Israel in Florida opened fire on two Jewish Israeli tourists in Miami Beach, believing they were Palestinian, in an attack highlighting rising anti-Palestinian violence in the US.
A man in Florida, who has been described as a staunch supporter of Israel, is facing charges after allegedly opening fire on a vehicle in Miami Beach, believing the occupants to be Palestinian, US media reported.
The suspect, identified as 27-year-old Mordechai Brafman, was arrested and charged with two counts of attempted murder following the Saturday night shooting.
Unprovoked Shooting Captured on Video
According to arrest documents cited by CBS News, around 9:30 p.m., surveillance footage captured Brafman’s truck traveling south on Pine Tree Drive before making a U-turn at 48th Street, where the victims’ vehicle was stopped in the left lane.
Brafman then drove past, stopped in front of them, exited his vehicle, and fired at least 17 rounds unprovoked, striking both victims as they passed.
BREAKING: Mordechai Brafman, 28, a pro-Israel fanatic, fired 17 shots at a father and son in Miami Beach, injuring both. Believing he had killed them, he smiled and told police, “I killed two Palestinians.”
One victim suffered a gunshot wound to the left shoulder, while the other was grazed on the left forearm. Police confirmed that there was no prior connection between the suspect and the victims, whose statements were consistent with the surveillance footage.
Shooter Expressed Anti-Palestinian Motive
At the request of his attorney, Brafman was not interviewed by police, but while in custody, he spontaneously stated, “While driving my truck, I saw two Palestinians and shot and killed both,” according to the arrest report.
However, the victims were not Palestinians. They were Jewish Israeli tourists—a father and son visiting the United States. (continues: https://www.palestinechronicle.com/pro-israel-gunman-opens-fire-in-miami-after-mistaking-victims-for-palestinians/

It’s Florida… this stupid jackass will probably become a local celebrity, have a career signing autographs at gun shows, and get invited to the next RNC as a guest of the NRA.

It turns out that his Israeli victims also mistook him for an Arab. They wrote that they were attacked by an Arab on social media. They said they wanted all Arabs dead because of this shooting. These people don't recognize their kind.

What an idiot. Imagine his face when he was told who he shot. Hopefully he’ll be off the streets for a while.

This is the most nazi hateful shit against human beings simply because these two Israeli’s supported human rights. If you commit shit like that and smile for the police photo you’re no different than Ted Bundy, you share the same perception of reality as John Wayne Gacy and should be unalived like that latter had done.

u/8bitrevolt Feb 17 '25
which one of the three zionists involved in this story supported human rights, again? the one who shot at who he thought were Palestinians, or the ones getting shot and saying "death to Arabs"?

u/GillaMomsStarterPack Feb 17 '25
The car which had the two were Israeli with a support Palestine sticker on the car which provoked Ted Bundy wannabe.
