  • Jewish Man Shoots At ‘Two Palestinians’ Driving In Miami Only To Discover They’re Israeli Tourists, Police Say

    Jewish Man Shoots At ‘Two Palestinians’ Driving In Miami Only To Discover They’re Israeli Tourists, Police Say

    A Jewish man opened fire on a car in Miami Beach with two passengers inside, mistakenly believing they were

    “Palestinians,”

    as reported by the NY Post. The victims turned out to be a father and son visiting from Israel, according to police.

    Mordechai Brafman, a 27-year-old plumber, allegedly shot 17 rounds at the Hyundai around 9:30 p.m. on Saturday, injuring the two Israeli Jews inside before fleeing the scene. He was later apprehended by police in the vicinity, as stated by WSVN-TV News and Ynet News.

    Brafman is currently in custody facing attempted murder charges and is being held without bond at the Miami-Dade County Jail, according to official records. The suspect reportedly confessed to police that he had killed the pair, although authorities confirmed that both individuals were still alive.

    “It should be noted that while in custody in our interview room, the defendant spontaneously stated that while he was driving his truck he saw two Palestinians and shot and killed both,”

    police told the TV outlet. One of the victims sustained a gunshot wound to his left shoulder, while the other suffered a graze wound to his arm, Ynet reported.

    “The victims and the defendant do not know each other,”

    cops added in their statement.

    Police reported that Brafman was traveling on Alton Road just north of 48th Street when he spotted the two victims. He then made a U-turn, approached their car, and opened fire.

    “It was a truck passing next to [us],”

    the younger victim, identified by WPLG-TV as Ari Revay, told the station in Hebrew.

    “Boom, boom, boom, and he randomly started shooting. He put the window down, the driver’s seat, and just blasted,”

    Revay said.

  • Anti-Israel QR Codes In NYC Promote ‘Free’ McDonald’s and Starbucks, But Redirect Customers To Disturbing ‘War Crime’ Videos

    Anti-Israel QR Codes In NYC Promote ‘Free’ McDonald’s and Starbucks, But Redirect Customers To Disturbing ‘War Crime’ Videos

    Fake QR code stickers are appearing throughout New York City, misleading people into thinking they offer discounts and giveaways, but instead, they link to disturbing videos of injured children and anti-Israel messages, as reported by The Post.

    This strategy is part of the Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions (BDS) movement, which advocates for boycotting companies perceived to support Israel. The Post discovered these stickers being placed at various chain restaurants and shops in Midtown this week. One QR code found at a McDonald’s on Sixth Avenue directed users to a flyer accusing the fast-food chain of

    “war crimes”

    and

    “McGenocide”

    for supplying meals to the Israel Defense Forces.

    “Hitting BDS targets including Starbucks, McDonald’s and Zara across 68 storefronts in Manhattan neighborhoods, activists enticed shoppers with coupon codes offering discounts and freebies,”

    a video from the group NJ PalAction explained.

    NJ PalAction is urging its social media followers to contribute to the United Nations Relief and Works Agency (UNRWA) or the Palestine Children’s Relief Fund (PCRF), both of which have alleged connections to terrorist organizations. Those who can show evidence of their donation will receive PDFs to create the misleading stickers at home, which they can then distribute throughout the city.

    New Yorkers are particularly troubled by the possibility of children encountering these messages.

    “This is part of a continuing campaign to shock New Yorkers and to disrupt New York with nothing less than Jew hatred,”

    said Gerard Filitti, senior counsel at The Lawfare Project and #EndJewHatred. 

    “They’re spreading disinformation that’s causing real harm,”

    he added. Filitti also pointed out the legal concerns surrounding the vandalism of private property and the unauthorized use of intellectual property.

  • Bruno Mars Cancels Sold Out Concert In Israel Amid Deadly Attack That Has Left 1,000 Civilians Dead and Counting

    Bruno Mars Cancels Sold Out Concert In Israel Amid Deadly Attack That Has Left 1,000 Civilians Dead and Counting

    Israel has officially declared war on Hamas, a Palestinian militant group, in response to an unprecedented attack that involved air, sea, and land strikes.

    The conflict has spilled over to the entertainment industry, with the cancellation of singer, Bruno Mars’s sold out concert. 

    Initially scheduled for October 7th in Tel Aviv, the concert was indefinitely postponed due to the attacks.

    Live Nation Israel, the event organizer, promptly announced the cancellation on the day the performance was scheduled to take place. 

    “Dear customers, Bruno Mars concert scheduled to take place tonight is canceled,”

    a translated Instagram statement from Live Nation Israel read on Friday.

    “All ticket purchases to the show will receive an automatic refund to the credit card through which the purchase was made. We strengthen the residents of Israel, IDF fighters, and the security forces in these difficult moments.” 

    Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu proclaimed Israel at war after a sudden, deadly assault by a Palestinian militant group. CNN reported over 1,000 casualties in Israel.

    This tragic incident prompted a retaliatory wave of Israeli airstrikes on Gaza, resulting in a death toll of at least 900 individuals.

    The group responsible for the attack, Hamas, reportedly took

    “hostages and prisoners of war.”

    CNN reports around 100 hostages seized. The military organization has issued a warning, threatening to execute hostages if airstrikes hit Gaza without prior notice. The conflict stems from the Jerusalem status dispute between Israel and Palestine.

    The Grammy Award-winning artist performed just two days before missile attacks struck the country. Mars hasn’t publicly commented on the war or the canceled concert but posted a prayer hand emoji on his X account (formerly known as Twitter).

    Mars was set to perform in Qatar but reportedly opted out leaving DJ Snake to replace him.

    U.S. Couple Caught Smuggling Suitcases Filled with Hundreds of Pounds of Fruit Roll-Ups Into Israel Due to Shortages from Viral TikTok Trend

    Two U.S. couples were stopped at customs at an airport in Israel after trying to smuggle pounds of Fruit Roll-Ups into the country, Insider reported. 

    The strange attempt comes as users on TikTok revealed the shortage of the sugary snack in the country after a viral TikTok trend promoted filling the candy with ice cream. Airport officials discovered 375 pounds of candy in one couple’s luggage and 72 pounds of Fruit Roll-Ups in a second couple’s bags.

    Twitter user, Amy Spiro, posted a video showing the wads of candy filled in the traveler’s bags at the Ben Gurion International Airport in Tel Aviv.

    “It has something to do with ice cream,”

    a voice says in the background according to The Times of Israel. 

    Over the past week,

    “a total of more than 650 pounds of the candy has been seized by Israeli customs,”

    reports reveal. Haaretz journalist claim due to the shortage of the treat prices of individually-wrapped Fruit Roll-Ups have spiked up to $5 or $6 each in Israel. In the US, a box of 10 Fruit Roll-Ups usually amounts to $3, reports note. 

    Earlier this week, the viral TikTok craze of filling Fruit-Roll Ups with ice cream prompted Israel’s Health Ministry to caution citizens about the snack, saying

    “People should think twice about that amount of sugar consumption,”

    Insider reports.
