Ahmed al Ahmed, a Muslim father of two, risked his life to disarm a murderer who was shooting down Jews celebrating Hanukkah in Sydney.
Religion must not divide our common humanity.
We must stand together and end antisemitism, Islamophobia and all hate — no exceptions.
— Bernie Sanders (@BernieSanders) December 15, 2025
And the response:
Ah, the defender was a Muslim, but the murderers have no religion?
It’s your utter hypocrisy that people don’t trust you any more.
Let’s be clear. Only one of them shouted “Allah hu Akbar.” The one acted on Islamic belief; the other as a humanitarian.https://t.co/XkLD0DYCak

Sankrant Sanu is right. Bernie Sanders is invoking the Muslim hero, as many are doing, in order to refute the idea that this is a problem with Islam itself. Yet Islam teaches what it teaches. Ahmed al-Ahmed’s actions doesn’t change those teachings. Naveed Akram was acting in accord with Islamic theology and law, and with how jihad has been understood throughout history.

I’m trying to remember the last time a Jewish person yelled “Aloha Snackbar” before opening fire on innocent civilians or blowing themselves up.
Barbar says
Likewise Christians don’t shout allahu akbar.

When was the last time a Jewish person opened fire on innocent civilians or blew themselves up.?
Westman says
Ol’ irrelevant, ineffective Bernie, still selling snake-oil at a UFC-like fight in which one participant has been instructed since birth that the other participant has no valid claim to life. Bernie and Sharpton both seem to profit by showing up after high-profile crimes for a photo-op then recede back to waiting for a speaking opportunity.
Apparently, in a long profitable career, Bernie has originated three laws, mostly involving the renaming of Vermont post offices. Even his “stand together” was borrowed from Ben Franklin’s, “We must all hang together or we will all hang separately…”, however, Franklin didn’t advocate for a British State.
MJ Raichyk, PhD says
Doesn’t anybody have some sympathy for Ahmed al Ahmed whose publicity just put a MAJOR curse on him ?
OR..
won’t the Ayaollah ruin the hero-worshipping of a Muslim?
AND
wanna test the islamophobia of the LIFE INSURANCE INDUSTRY?
b/c
What would IT COST to fund a LIFE INSURANCE POLICY on Ahmed al Ahmed??
With yourself as BENEFICIARY…
b/c
I wanna know what ACTUARIES and underwriters know —about RELIGIONS… lol………

The Useful-Idiot Democrats partner with Islam’s Muslims against Jews and Non-Muslims to help gain more money, power, and control as taught in Islam’s Qur’an(Qur’an 9:5, 29, 111; 49:15, etc.). In essence, totalitarians stick together to gain power, but not every group keeps power in the future because history shows that Muslims use lies, deceit, and propaganda to help gain power.
Allah’s Islam, a CRIMINAL-TERRORIST-GANG ENTERPRISE and a MURDEROUS-DEMONIC CULT OF BELIEVERS, Terrorist Muslim Soldiers for satanic Allah, continually fund, promote, and practice ideological subversion, propaganda, bigotry, discrimination, deceit, industrial-scale slavery, human trafficking, intimidation, supremacy, segregation, hatred, incitement to violence, criminality, genocide, victimhood, censorship, and terrorism as taught in Islamic Law, Sharia, and in Islam’s Qur’an(Qur’an 5:14,35; 8:60; 9:41, 88, etc.). Islam and its Muslims are a Terrorist Organization.
Allah describes Muslim women in Jenna, Allah’s Paradise, as whores by Allah in Qur’an 56:37. Also, Deceitful Allah stirs hatred against Christians until the resurrection day when Qur’an 5:14 instructs, “And some of those who say, ‘Surely we are Nasara (Christians),’ we took their covenant. So they have forgotten a part of what they were reminded of, so we have stirred up ENMITY and HATRED among them until the resurrection day. And Allah will inform them of what they were doing.” See also Qur’an 60:4; 8:55.
As taught by Allah, Muslims are supremacist terrorists for Allah with their MONEY and with their LIVES while undermining a society from within using the man-made book of lies and deceit, the Qur’an. Allah in Qur’an 49:15 states, “Surely the believers[Muslims] are only those who believed in Allah and his messenger. They do not doubt, and they performed jihad with their MONEY and their LIVES for the sake of Allah. Those are the truthful.” As evidenced by continuous Muslim attacks, Allah in Qur’an 4:101 says, “…Surely the infidels(Non-Muslims) were your clear enemies.”

Sorry, antisemitism and “islamophobia” don’t fall remotely into the same category. One is imaginary, and the other real

If some evil creature claimed to be Christian and opened fire on innocent people, those praising to the hilt one lone muzzie for his against-islime demands and commands, would blame all of Christianity.
One lone muzzie, acting against what he has been taught, does not islime innocent make.
And OT
“Somali pirates engage Navy helicopter with gunfire” The Navy responds.
It’s a video. The muzzies are behaving in this scenario as they have been taught. The *real* islime…just like the two on Bondi Beach murdering innocent people.

Bernie Sanders: ‘We must stand together and end antisemitism, Islamophobia and all hate’
FIRST OF ALL:
I AM OFFENDED BY USING THE WORD ISLAMOPHOBIA.
THE 2 TERRORISTS ARE MUSLIM ACCORDING TO THE KORAN AND SHARIA LAW. THEY MURDERED THE 16 JEWS.
AHMED AL AHMED IS ALSO A MUSLIM LIVING IN A CHRITIAN COUNTRY. OF COURSE HE LEARNED A LOT FROM THE CHRISTIAN SOCIETY, ABOUT HUMANITY, BUT NOT FROM ISLAM.
ACCORDING TO THE KORAN AND SHARIA LAW WHAT AHMED DID WAS AGAINST ISLAM AS A DEVILISH AND TERRORIST RELIGION.
NO ONE MUSLIM COUNTRY IS USING THE WORD ISLAMOPHOBIA. ONLY IN THE WESTERN COUNTRIES, NOT UNDERSTNADING THE TRUE MEANING OF ISLAM AS A TERRORIST AND A DEVILISH RELIGION.
TO ALL WHOM ARE THEY ASKING TO END ISLAMOPHOBIA
ACCORDING TO THE CORAN AND SHARIA LAW:
ARE YOU READY TO BE MURDERED, BEHEADED, THEFT, HAVE SEX WITH YOUR INFANT BABY, RAPING YOUR WIFE, DAUGHTER, MOTHER OR ANY OTHER WOMAN NOT MUSLIM, ETC.
X WRONG ” ISLAMOPHOBIA”
✔ CORRECT ” ISLAM IS A PHOBIA”
BECAUSE I’M OFFENDED, PLEASE STOP USING THE WORD ISLAMOPHOBIA
ENOUGH IS ENOUGH
============
NOT ALL MUSLIMS ARE TERRORISTS BUT ALL TERRORORISTS ARE MUSLIMS
BECAUSE I UNDERTSTAND ISLAM I HAVE ISLAMOPHOBIA.
ALL MUSLIMS HAVE ISLAMOPHOBIA.
MUSLIMS IN THE WESTERN COUNTRIES BY THE CONSTITUTIONS BECOME WILDER AND MORE DANGER WHEN THEY WERE IN THEIR MUSLIMS DICTATOR COUNTRIES

Bernie Sanders: ‘We must stand together and end antisemitism, Islamophobia and all hate.’
Let’s end hypocrisy and mendacity first.
somehistory says
Yes, Keys, and pure evil.
Fools like him, can’t see the irony in saying those words while standing next to a muzzie who will never stop hating *his kind*…nor stop wanting him and his kind six feet under.
James Lincoln says
Yes, somehistory.
Makes me think of the phrase:
“Fools Rush in Where Angels Fear to Tread.”
somehistory says
I too, think of that often these days, James.

Incoherent at best…
Albert Van Rijn says
Many other citizens besides Ahmed intervened because the police were too late and afraid. There’s a video of another man restraining the perpetrator, and several eyewitnesses have reported that several people heroically helped others. This isn’t highlighted in the man’s video; it’s all about Ahmed being used as evidence to show how “peaceful” Islam is. And you can shove the word Islamophobia up your ass; people are rightly afraid of this hateful and violent religion of Satan. So done with this left-wing rhetoric to downplay the danger of Islam. Incidentally, Bernie forgets to mention the hatred against Christians; 380 million are being persecuted worldwide.

Euer leeres Geschwätz, eure hohlen Phrasen, euer debiles Lächeln und eure heuchlerische Scheinheiligkeit gehen mir so was auf die Nerven.

Old saying “If you don’t have anything good to say about someone don’t say anything” So I won’t say anything about these two.
