When hate & gun violence struck a Hanukkah celebration at Bondi Beach, Ahmed al Ahmed rushed toward danger & saved lives. His courage stands as a reminder of our shared humanity. But no community should depend on heroics to feel safe. Safety & dignity must be guaranteed for all.

It was an incredible honor to meet Rabbi Ulman of Bondi and Ahmed al-Ahmed, the hero who saved countless lives during the antisemitic terrorist attack at Bondi Beach. Ahmed is a role model for us all. We must continue to fight antisemitism, hatred and bigotry wherever it rears its ugly head.

The world will now blame Muslims for the Bondy Beach attack in Australia. But they won't tell you that Ahmed al Ahmed, a 43-year-old Muslim, was the heroic man who tackled one of the Bondi Beach shooters, risking his life to snatch the gun and prevent further loss of lives.

Grateful for the courage of Principal Kirk Moore in Oklahoma—running toward danger, tackling a gunman to shield his students. But let’s be clear: this kind of bravery should never be required of our educators or our children. Our kids’ leading killer is gun violence. We cannot just praise courage—we must match it with action, and stand up to stop these tragedies.

Grateful for the courage of Principal Kirk Moore in Oklahoma who ran toward danger, took a bullet, and put himself between harm and his students. This is what heroism looks like. But let’s be clear: this is a kind of bravery that should never be required. Our children’s leading killer is gun violence. We cannot just praise courage we must match it. Honor him not just with words, but with action. We must do more to pass common sense gun safety laws to save more of our children.

Bondi was a watershed moment for our country. It was an attack on Australians of Jewish faith, and it was an attack on all of us, on our shared values, our national identity, and the safety every person in this country deserves. Bondi was a moment of darkness for our country, but also a reminder of who we are. In our darkest hours, the heroes of Bondi showed courage, humanity and hope. We honour you, and we will never forget.

My heart breaks for the students at Annunciation Catholic School & their loved ones. Our children deserve to be safe no matter where they are, but especially at school. The need for commonsense gun violence prevention is urgent. The Senate must take action.

If you get the chance to shoot a terrorist... do it. Hesitation costs lives, even if it's for the 'right reasons'. The victims of this terror attack should be front and centre, alongside Ahmed al Ahmed, a local fruiterer who showed incredible courage... but an opportunity was missed and a lesson is there for us all. Thankyou to everyone who supports the Topher Project, you'll find my books, DVDs, and merch, as well as the 'buy Topher a coffee' button, at

Witnesses and video footage show Ahmed advancing on the armed attacker, placing him in a headlock, and seizing the shotgun, giving families time to escape. He was shot twice during the intervention and is hospitalized, with relatives saying he is awaiting surgery. Authorities say the attack left at least 12 people dead and dozens injured in what is being investigated as a targeted assault on a Jewish event.

The parents of Ahmed al Ahmed, the 43-year-old father who disarmed a gunman during the deadly terrorist attack at Australia’s famous Bondi Beach on Sunday, praised their son's bravery, calling him a hero who acted on instinct to protect lives. Ahmed’s parents, who arrived in Sydney from Syria two months ago, said they were terrified when they were first told their son was involved in the attack, but pride quickly replaced fear once they learned he had acted to protect others, saying his conscience compelled him to help people in danger.

🚨🇦🇺 AUSTRALIAN PM ALBANESE: BONDI HANUKKAH SHOOTING A TARGETED TERROR ATTACK ON JEWISH COMMUNITY "This is a targeted attack on Jewish Australians on the first day of Hanukkah, which should be a day of joy. An attack on Jewish Australians is an attack on every Australian. This afternoon there has been a devastating terrorist incident at Bondi at the Hanukkah by the Sea celebration. My message to Jewish Australians is that your fellow Australians stand with you tonight in condemning this act of terror, in condemning this outrage. One of the Jewish community leaders said to me that we know where antisemitism leads, that it leads to an attack on everyone, not just Jewish Australians. And this attack at Bondi Beach, of all places, a place of celebration, a place where people particularly in Sydney but from all over the world come to enjoy each other's company."
