‘Palestinians’ furious at Bondi Beach hero who tackled Bondi jihadist killer
Dec 18, 2025
Jihadis and jihad sympathizers are a “tiny minority of extremists,” we’re told.



“Sickening slur is levelled at the Bondi Beach hero who saved countless lives during terror attack by disarming one of the gunman,” by Ashley Nickel, Daily Mail, December 18, 2025:

Palestinians have called Ahmed al-Ahmed, the brave Syrian-Australian who risked his own life to disarm a gunman during the Bondi massacre, a ‘traitor’.

Ramallah News, one of the most popular news outlets in Palestine, shared a story about Mr al-Ahmed’s brave actions on Sunday.

It’s alleged two gunmen, father Sajid Akram and son Naveed, stormed a Jewish festival celebrating the first night of Hanukkah at Bondi Beach.

The pair allegedly killed 15 innocent people and injured dozens more before finally being shot by police, ending the attack. Sajid died while Naveed was hospitalised.

Mr al-Ahmed had confronted Sajid during the attack and wrestled his gun from him, risking his own life to save others.

Ramallah News’ post about Mr al-Ahmed was quickly spread around Arab communities, which overwhelmingly condemned him for saving Jewish lives.

According to analysis by a senior researcher for Palestinian Media Watch, Ahron Shapiro, of the 1,000 comments left under the article – 75 per cent were unsupportive of Mr al-Ahmed, 20 per cent were supportive and five per cent were neutral.

‘Treason comes to you from the closest people,’ one commenter wrote.

‘He sold himself and his life for the safety of the Jews,’ one said.

‘I wish it (the bullet) hit (his) heart,’ another wrote.

Other commenters accused Mr al Ahmed, a 43-year-old Arab Muslim, of seeking money.

‘He played it right, he wants the money,’ one wrote, while another said, ‘He has received a million dollars in rewards … he acted ‘manly’ in the wrong place’.

Some comments were even threatening towards Mr al-Ahmed.

‘By Allah we will surely chop you to pieces … we will not leave a trace of you,’ one said. ‘May God send you a disease,’ another wrote.

Fortunately, there were also several comments praising Mr al-Ahmed as a ‘hero who defended his brothers’….
