In Chicago, A Jewish Man Walking to His Synogogue Is Shot By Someone Shouting "Alluha Akbar"

Must be one of them MAGA types, I reckon.

This story is from the Jerusalem Post. For some reason, the American media which is so fearful of violent Nazism isn't covering it.

Why is that, do you think?

Chicago Jewish man on way to synagogue shot by attacker shouting 'Allahu Akhbar'

The attacker was shot multiple times, and is now in being treated in a hospital in critical condition, Bruno added.

A Jewish man was shot multiple times in the shoulder as he was walking to a synagogue in Chicago on Saturday in broad daylight, Fox 32 Chicago, the Jewish News Syndicate (JNS), and the Chicago Police Department announced on Sunday.

The man, 39, was shot by a 23-year-old gunman in the 2,600 block of North Washtenaw Avenue, which is home to many Orthodox Jewish families.

The gunman, who has yet to be identified, was heard on a security camera recording screaming "Allahu akbar" before engaging in a two-and-a-half-minute shootout with the police.

The Chicago Police Department told JNS that the incident was under investigation but did not directly confirm that the victim was Jewish.

However, when asked if the victim was wearing anything that identified him as an Orthodox Jew during a press conference, Deputy Police chief Kevin Bruno said that "the victim is from the community."

Bruno said that at 9:35 a.m., the man was walking in West Rogers Park "when an armed offender approached from behind and fired shots at the victim, striking the victim in the shoulder."

I'm sure everyone knows the media's game -- they only start screaming about anti-semitism or #StopAsianHate when a safely white perp does something awful. If you're non white, you can bash Jews or Asian grandmothers in the head all the live-long day without Jake Tapper batting an eye.

Sorry for the long delays -- the computer broke and I've been on the phone with HP. (Who turned out to be helpful. But this is not the time I wanted to have to send out my computer for repair.)
