The Anti-Israel Activist Killed by the Ideology He Excused

The New York Post reports about a horrible murder – otherwise known as the time Colonel Sanders caught up with one of his chickens.

A Muslim man shot and killed a pro-Palestinian photographer and his friend as they were leaving an Arizona gay bar before turning the gun on himself in what cops say was a hate crime.

Ousman Ceesay unleashed the violence in Tucson around 12:30 a.m. Monday — targeting two men he did not know, Tucson Police confirmed.

Cameron Davis Capara, 33, and Vincent Anthony Siqueiros, 42, were in the parking lot of Venture-N when they were confronted and then shot by Ceesay, according to cops.

Ceesay, 44, then shot himself with a 9mm handgun.

The gunman was carrying a note with a list of other gay-friendly businesses in the area, but cops said he never tried to enter the bar near where he committed the heinous crime.

A second note in his home found by detectives “indicated he acted alone and that this shooting was a targeted attack motivated by hate toward the LGBTQIA+ community,” the department said.

Ceesay previously worked as an Uber driver and was a practicing Muslim who prayed five times a day, his cousin told the Arizona Daily Star.

Capara wasn’t merely “pro-Palestinian” as the Post reports; he was an active anti-Israel activist who liked to play dress-up:

He grieved for Gazans killed – including the terrorists – without a tear shed for the Israelis and foreign nationals murdered by these terrorists:

One might argue he even supported Hamas like many of his allies who he photographed at the rallies he attended:

and invoked antisemitic Holocaust comparisons, even barely 6 months after the worst atrocity to hit the Jewish people since the Holocaust:

My point with all of this is not that Capara deserved to be murdered. He didn’t. It is that there is a grim lesson here about the delusions of a movement that embraces Islamists as ideological comrades because they share a hatred of Israel, the US, and the West.

The enemy of your enemy is not necessarily your friend. Sometimes he still considers you the enemy.
