We created Not the Chimp, just incase we end in a world where satire is used to assert whatever reality someone with influence and power, wants to create.
This story should be satire, but it isn’t.
The attack
A man strapped with bombs, stabbed Jewish worshippers entering a synagogue on a Jewish holiday, in Manchester, United Kingdom.
Tension are high due to the war between Hamas and Israel, and so at the first glance, this is clearly a targeted attack on a Jewish community.
Who is the attacker?
You can’t really make this up.
The attacker is a syrian-born British citizen, who’s legal name is Jihad.
No, I’m not. He’s legal name is Jihad Al-Shamie.
Terrorists and extremist groups use the term jihad as a tool to justify violence.
Case rested right?
The Police will do its investigations, link it to online radicalisation, politicians will condemn the attacks, urge communities to de-escalate, and we move forward.
Here’s BBC playing the same trick they used when Charlie Kirk got shot
Here is a statement from Bushra Shaikh, a muslim influencer fighting to end racism against Pakistanis in the UK
She blames Israel for the attacks. I guess what she’s implying is, the attack was justified because Israel is killing Gazans.

Blame battle intensifies
Keir Starmer takes a really good beating on this one, with most blaming him on social media.
Mass migration is blamed.
The muslim community is blamed. There are actually reports of Palestine supporters out on the UK streets, celebrating this terrorist attack on a Jewish community — despicable.
Home Secretary Shabana Mahmood takes a stab at who to blame - she blames the individual as an isolated attacker. Remember, she was caught at a Palestine protest, giving a speech that some argue as inciting violence against Jews.
Conspiracy theories
Stories are already circulating that this was a coordinated attack by Israel’s spy agency Mossad to shift the optics, tilting the victimhood narrative in favour of the Jews.
What’s really going on?
This is normal in today’s age of information.
What is guaranteed is; we will never hear the truth.
Such events are also key moments in history, as we get to measure the state of a society and the state of culture wars being fought.
The response to this attack tells us that, the UK Government and MET Police are failing to address these as terrorist attacks, in fear of offending certain groups due to religious and cultural sensitivity.
They have chosen to go all-in to fight culture wars, and it will not end well for Keir Starmer.
