It is unclear whether the latest death toll includes either of the gunmen, with police earlier saying one had been killed and the other was in critical condition.
Fun with live news threads, headline has changed at least 4 times now…
Yeah I’m admittedly feeling petty today which is why I chirped in on this thread after our prior exchange. They’re right about the diaspora, which I did not refute, but the way they structured their sentence, particularly in using the word especially, came across as stating that both the nation and their diaspora are majority Christian. The fact that the Pew study from 8 years following the initial figure of 54% pegs the Christians at an even lower share would support the idea that the diaspora is disproportionately Christian. Still doesn’t change the fact that the hero of the day is a Muslim, as stated by multiple news outlets and the PM of Israel.
But hey, don’t listen to me, I’m just a barely literate propaganda bot ;)
