All the hostages are out, alive and safe!

Forget the guns, guns, and flash grenades are what saved the people, so what about the perpetrator, care to comment on him?
I agree.

That's good. Aafia Siddiqui is still in the can too, gonna serve all of those 86 years' time too.
Israel has a new and better PM now; Nutty Yahoo is out. The Muslim community condemns this antisemitic act. Islam and Judaism have the same God and more in common than differences. The standoff ended with all four hostages alive, well and safe. Nobody is talking any Islamophobic trash (yet). And Pres. Biden has been getting updates and he is no antisemite either. This is no repeat of that Pittsburgh synagogue incident.
It all looks good and I'm GLAD things have been resolved without anyone getting killed. Hopefully the hate that has plagued America for so long may subside. We can hope.

Kudos! - Gotta credit JT for continually updating many headlines and news stories on a Sunday. Well done.

Wrong on several counts: It occurred at a house of worship, what should be a safe haven, not on occupying forces or a government facility. The state where it occurred and their guns laws are immaterial to why it happened and why such an institution was chosen. The act has been condemned by other institutions.

Don’t worry the FBI already announced that this wasn’t a hate crime, he was upset about “something else” unrelated to the Jewish people or community.

Show a little respect - their negotiators got everyone out safe - and this past week was Law Enforcement Appreciation Day...
Put your anti-police views aside for once...

Reenactment of white fascist who shot up Tree of Life Synagogue (2018).

The attacker is now being reported in the media as “a British man”.

Yes, almost certainly a man with a British passport.
Blacklabel
No actually “a British man”
Washington Post-
“U.K. aware of ‘death of a British man in Texas’ after synagogue standoff ends, hostages freed”
Numan
Yes, British is a nationality not an ethnicity!
Do you understand the difference?

So?

A foreign citizen with most likely racial and religious reasons for this terrorist attack will nary be mentioned in the politically left media.
Just checked and this story is buried under a pile of garbage in politically left 'news' sites.
Some refuse to mention the british terrorist's name.

Where are you checking? I'm seeing broad coverage here in the UK.
Apparently he was from Blackburn, Lancashire. This is what I read in one news source:
