Colleen Kelly
It would be nice to hear some acknowledgement of the critical and brave act that Ahmed Al Ahmed, 43, did by disarming one of the shooters and saving many more lives. Mr Ahmed a father of two and a small business owner, came to Australia in 2006 and made Australia home. He remains in a critical condition in hospital having been shot a number of times. For my money he meets the Australian of the Year criteria!!!

Colleen Kelly also did you notice that when he laid that firearm that he took from the shooter. That it stopped firing bullets. Funny thing how that works. But that guy definitely deserves a medal

"As a Jewish person, we know where this anti-semitism comes from. The one who has caused more death, his actions, his rhetoric has made Jews all over the world, vulnerable. And to our Muslim brothers and sisters, my own beautiful friends… it came down to one courageous shop owner, a father of two, to disarm a murderer." Lissa Barnum

The inexcusable shooting is a response to inexcusable actions by Netanyahu and his government. It's extremely sad that part of the response has spread to Australia.

Ahmed's courage is like a candle in the darkness. Peace, harmony and the protection of precious lives is what he put his life on the line for. Nobody can convert that to hatred.

Netanyahu has a pretty big role in the radicalisation of a lot of people on both sides though

Interestingly and ironically, we are told that not all Muslims and those who follow Islam are bad and not to punish the many despite the actions of a few.
Yet law abiding firearm owners are repeatedly treated and assumed as all dangerous with sweeping laws affecting them all despite the actions of a few.

I don’t understand why people are not calling it out for what it is it was. It was called a terrorist strike. - that means it was a religious strike against another religion. In this case it was against the Jewish religious community so it doesn’t take a genius to work out what the other religion was.

My father was a gunsmith, and restorer, he thought that no gun should be privately owned or used except in the confines of a gun club or as a tool on a farm.
Makes sense to me .
Thanks for your insightful reporting and Merry Christmas to Michael West Media

Usually I agree with you but not on this occasion.Yes technically you are correct that it is 2 men to blame but these "peace marches" were not peace marches, there was violence involved and hatred against Jews in their chants.
