Australia Jihad Massacre: Police Stood Down – Did Not Return Fire, Heroic Shopkeeper Tackled and Disarmed Terrorist

Australia, once a safe haven for Jews, has become a hotbed of Islamic Jew hatred, sanctioned by a far left government.

At least 12 people were killed and 29 wounded when two terrorists opened fire on a Hanukkah celebration at Sydney’s Bondi Beach Sunday evening, turning “Chanukah by the Sea” into a scene of mass slaughter. The Muslim terrorists fired from a pedestrian bridge overlooking the crowded beach, sending thousands fleeing as shots rang out during the first night of the Jewish holiday. One attacker was killed at the scene and the other arrested in critical condition; police say at least one was on Australia’s security watchlist. Officials called the assault a targeted antisemitic attack meant to shatter a night of peace and joy for Sydney’s Jewish community. 12 dead including children and a Rabbi.

Jim Ferguson: POLICE OFFICERS DID NOT RETURN FIRE AT TERRORISTS.

MASS SLAUGHTER: Muslim Terrorists Named in Antisemitic Hanukkah Massacre at Bondi Beach, 12 DEAD INCLUDING CHILDREN & RABBI, 29 Injured

An eyewitness says the shooting went on for nearly 20 minutes.

Two attackers.

Repeated reloads.

Sustained fire into a crowd of civilians.

And yet — according to that testimony — four armed police officers were present and did not return fire.

That fact alone demands serious, immediate answers.

Why was no return fire initiated?

Were officers ordered to stand down?

Were they waiting for authorisation?

Were they inadequately equipped?

Was there a command failure?

These are not accusations.
They are necessary questions when civilians are being shot for 20 minutes in a public space.

Every second matters in an active shooter scenario.

Every delay costs lives.

If officers were prevented from acting, the public deserves to know who made that call and why.

If they were unable to act, the public deserves to know what failed.

Transparency is not optional after an event like this.

Silence only deepens fear and erodes trust.

The victims deserve truth.

The public deserves answers.

Incredible moment Bondi Beach hero disarms terrorist who opened fire on Hanukkah party

By Michael Zennie, NY Post, Dec. 14, 2025:

A heroic shopkeeper tackled and disarmed one of the terrorists who opened fire on a Bondi Beach Hanukkah celebration in Australia Sunday.

Video captured the moment that the good Samaritan, wearing a white shirt, sneaked up behind the shotgun-wielding gunman and wrestled the weapon away from him.

At least 12 people were killed, including children, and 29 were injured after two terrorists opened fire at the Chanukah by the Sea event on the famed Sydney beach.

The onslaught lasted at least 10 minutes before the terrorists were taken down.

The hero’s family identified him as 43-year-old Ahmed al Ahmed, a father of two from Sydney who runs a fruit stand, according to news.com.au.

The man’s cousin told 7News that he was shot twice during the confrontation and is undergoing surgery.

In the video, Ahmed waited for the terrorist, wielding a long gun, to pause in between shots before grabbing him in a bear hug.

After a tussle, Ahmed came up with the gun and pointed it at the attacker.
