Blogger’s Note: I do not support or endorse The Guardian (UK) nor Al Jazeera (Qatar) – but quote these sources in this instance, as the content is useful in establishing a broad cross-reference of the facts. The Guardian is a hideous, rightwing Trotskyite rag that has taken to often misspelling (British) English words in its articles – inserting instead deficient US equivalents. Al Jazeera is a pro-Israel, pro-US propaganda mouthpiece that had no problem supporting ISIS, Israel, and Turkey in Syria – opposing the Arab Socialist regime of Assad. Qatar is anti-China, anti-Socialist, and fully supportive of Turkey arming and funding the supposed “Uyghur” Islamo-terrorist “ETIM” (hence its privileged seat at the negotiation table with Israel – whilst never materially assisting the Palestinians). Indeed, whilst pretending to care about Palestinians outside of Palestine (the Israeli Genocide in Palestine is not mentioned at all) – Al Jazeera refuses to identify the shooter as “Jewish”.
The Guardian is equally racist, anti-China and reactionary when it comes to supporting the bourgeois class that now controls it. Things were not always like this. However, this disgusting capitalist rag did at least make the following telling quotes which sum-up the sheer lunacy of Zionist racism – and which explains “why” an Israeli genocide has been allowed to unfold in Palestine whilst the world passively watches on:
“Brafman allegedly fired 17 times, striking one victim in the left shoulder and grazing the other’s left forearm. While in custody, Brafman spontaneously told detectives that while he was driving his truck, “he saw two Palestinians and shot and killed both”, arrest documents said.”
“Further complicating the incident, one of the injured men reportedly posted “death to the Arabs” in a message on social media after the shooting. “My father and I went through a murder attempt against anti-Semitic background,” he wrote.”
“It is deeply ironic and telling that both the alleged pro-Israel perpetrator and the pro-Israel victim in the Miami Beach shooting reportedly hold racist anti-Palestinian views,” said Cair’s national executive director, Nihad Awad, on X.”
Internet users are asking why it is that this shooting is not classified as “terrorist”? The implication is that it involves a US Jew and two Israeli Jews (both accusing the other of being “Palestinian”) – the usual (legal) latitude applies when it comes to Jewish criminality, Jewish violence, and Jewish racism. Obviously, the targeting of Palestinians for their race and religion is NOT included in the “Crimes Against Humanity” or “Anti-Terror” Laws anywhere in the world. After-all, the leader of Israel – Benjamin Netanyahu – is a wanted man with an International Arrest Warrant following him around on his trips to the US – issued by the International Criminal Court (ICC) for “War Crimes” and “Crimes Against Humanity”. Neither The Guardian nor Al Jazeera feel happy to dwell on this fact whilst both publish lies about China! ACW (19.2.2025)

US man who shot Israeli visitors thought they were Palestinians, police say
Mordechai Brafman, 27, charged with two counts of attempted murder over shooting at Miami Beach in Florida.
A man charged with attempted murder over the shooting of two Israeli visitors in Florida, the United States, believed the victims were Palestinians, police have said.
Mordechai Brafman, 27, was on Sunday charged with two counts of attempted murder and booked after the shooting at Miami Beach the previous night, according to the website of Miami-Dade County Corrections.
In an arrest report, police alleged that Brafman had “spontaneously stated that while he was driving his truck, he saw two Palestinians and shot and killed both”.
Both victims, identified in local media as a Jewish father and son visiting Miami from Israel, survived.
One of the men suffered an injury to his shoulder, and the other was wounded in his forearm, according to local news reports.
In an interview with WPLG Local 10, one of the victims, identified as Ari Revay, said the shooter had opened fire at him and his father from a passing truck.
“‘Boom, boom, boom’ and he randomly started shooting,” Revay was quoted as saying in an interview that was reportedly translated from Hebrew by his cousin.
“He put the window down, driver’s seat and just blasted,” Revay was quoted as saying.
The shooting comes amid warnings by advocacy groups that incidents of anti-Muslim and anti-Semitic hate have surged since the start of the war in Gaza on October 7, 2023, including several violent attacks on Palestinian Americans.
On October 14, 2023 six year-old Palestinian Wadea al-Fayoume was killed after his family’s landlord stabbed him 26 times, in suburban Chicago.
In another incident, a 41-year-old woman allegedly attempted to drown a three-year-old Palestinian-American girl in Texas, while three young Palestinian men were injured after they were shot near a university campus in Vermont in November 2023.
“This is just the latest example of the hate targeting the Palestinian-American community in this country and Palestinians in their homeland,” Nihad Awad, the national executive director of the Council on American-Islamic Relations, said in a statement on Monday.
“Policymakers in our nation should stop fomenting the anti-Palestinian hate that led to the genocide in Gaza and to hate crimes in America.”

Jewish man mistakes two Israeli tourists for Palestinians and opens fire on them in Miami
A Jewish man in Miami Beach is facing charges of attempted murder following accusations that he opened fire on two men he believed were Palestinians but reportedly turned out to be Israeli visitors.
According to arrest documents, at 9.30pm on Saturday surveillance video appeared to show Mordechai Brafman, 27, getting out of his truck and opening fire with a semiautomatic handgun at a vehicle as it passed. Brafman allegedly fired 17 times, striking one victim in the left shoulder and grazing the other’s left forearm.
While in custody, Brafman spontaneously told detectives that while he was driving his truck, “he saw two Palestinians and shot and killed both”, arrest documents said.
Law enforcement officials did not confirm if the victims were in fact Palestinians and the Miami Herald reported that they were actually two vacationing Israelis, naming them as Ari Rabey and his father.
Facebook posts after the shooting show Rabey at Miami’s Jackson memorial hospital and his Hyundai with several bullet holes and markings.
The outlet reported that as of Monday afternoon, Brafman, the alleged shooter, was being held at the Miami-Dade correctional center on two counts of attempted second-degree murder.
Further complicating the incident, one of the injured men reportedly posted “death to the Arabs” in a message on social media after the shooting. “My father and I went through a murder attempt against anti-Semitic background,” he wrote.
The Council on American-Islamic Relations’ Florida chapter has called for federal hate crime charges in the shooting.
“It is deeply ironic and telling that both the alleged pro-Israel perpetrator and the pro-Israel victim in the Miami Beach shooting reportedly hold racist anti-Palestinian views,” said Cair’s national executive director, Nihad Awad, on X.
“This just the latest example of the hate targeting the Palestinian-American community in this country and Palestinians in their homeland. Policymakers in our nation should stop fomenting the anti-Palestinian hate that led to the genocide in Gaza and to hate crimes in America.”
