A Jewish man in Miami Beach is facing serious charges for opening fire on a vehicle after he saw “two Palestinians” inside – both of whom actually appear to be Israeli Jews.

Mordechai Brafman, 27, was arrested and charged with two counts of attempted murder after he shot 17 rounds at the car with a semiautomatic handgun on Saturday night. According to American media reports, Brafman said once taken into custody that while he was driving his truck, “he saw two Palestinians and shot and killed both”.

Brafman was seen on surveillance video driving south on Pine Tree Drive and then making a U-turn at 48th Street before driving by the victim’s vehicle, which was in the left lane, and stopping directly in front of them in the right lane.

Neither victim was killed, though one was hit in the left shoulder and the other’s forearm was grazed by a bullet. And, according to numerous reports and a Facebook post by a man claiming to be one of the victims, neither of the men were Palestinians.

A Jew in a truck with a gun shoots two Israeli Jews and is caught.

Did not have that on my Bingo Card!

"...Facebook post by a man claiming to be one of the victims, neither of the men were Palestinians."

All reporters should rely on facebook when writing their stories.

Try FL’s public records law and lazy jour0lists. They sit on their As and review FL’s (public) police reports for stories to write about since they’re too cheap and lazy to go to their own state’s arrest records.

Why not? We suddenly rely on “X” here like it’s God’s own good word.

I see it lots of times every day now..

>> Mordechai Brafman... shot 17 rounds at the car with a semiautomatic handgun... Neither victim was killed, though one was hit in the left shoulder and the other’s forearm was grazed by a bullet.

How embarrassing... he’ll never live THAT down at the range! But apparently he doesn’t actually VISIT the range, so there’s that.

Gee, I wonder what handgun he has? I mean, had? Glock’s gonna terminate his tik-tok influencer’s support after this!

Every story you read needs a healthy amount of skepticism... X info needs complete and total skepticism.

If they had, indeed, been Palestinians what would be the response?

Hopefully, arrest and prosecution for attempted murder.

Sounds like the moron who shot the Sikh guy, wearing a turban, because he thought the guy was a Muslim.
