Moment fearless Brit throws back SEVEN Hamas grenades while protecting partygoers from terror attack before the eighth explosive claims his life
2023-11-16
[Daily Mail, where America gets its news] A fearless British man threw back seven grenades tossed into a bomb shelter by Hamas terrorists while protecting partygoers during the October 7 terror attack against Israel, terrifying footage shows.

Aner Shapira, 22, was tragically killed by the eighth grenade that was thrown into the shelter in which he was hiding with a group of around 30 others.

The young man was among those killed in the Re'im festival massacre, which saw Palestinian gunmen kill 325 civilians and off-duty soldiers, wound many more and take at least 37 people hostage back into Gaza.

#5  I guess the label is more significant to you than the character.

#4  I repeat. He's not British. He's from an old Jerusalem family. And he was an IDF soldier.

#3  Off-duty British soldier throws back seven Hamas grenades before eighth kills him

The Jewish Chronicle of London said Shapiro was a dual British national.

I suppose because he chooses.

#2  Exactly how a guy born, raised, and living in Jerusalem became "Brit"?

#1  I don't think the young man was really concerned about the terrorist's motivation, or pronouns.
