    They’re not reporting it because there’s no evidence regarding this man’s religious beliefs. You just went out of your way to find a couple of clickbait headlines without even bothering to read them to spread narratives. You’re a part of the problem.

        The source of this guy being muslim in the article is literally Benjamin Netanyahu…

        Regardless, all I wanted was for you to provide an article that at least had a source for the claim. I don’t trust anything Netanyahu says out of principle, but still this is an article that does provide something to support the claim. It’s not a pure clickbait headline that’s misleading. So there we go, that puts whatever this was to rest.

          After sleeping this off I think I was being too much of a dick needlessly. I can respect and agree with your desire to make sure facts are well vetted before potentially pushing a false narrative. Cheers mate

            It’s nice to see you doing this, but you really weren’t the problem in this thread. That account was not posting in good faith. You were immediately accused of spreading misinformation, then when you politely provided evidence, they doubled down both on the sealioning and the name calling. The votes tell the story here and you did well and you did good.
