Social media has since been abuzz with netizens commenting on the apparent assassination attempt on Trump and comparing it with what Trump himself and other US presidents have done for years.

Many have also pointed to the US-backed genocidal war on Gaza, given that the attack on Trump came barely hours after the latest massacre in southern Gaza’s Khan Younis city.

Dan Dohen, a journalist and filmmaker, in a post on X, formerly Twitter, reminded people of what Trump did as the American president, including ordering the assassination of Iran’s top anti-terror commander General Qassem Soleimani in January 2020.

This is western racism exposed for all the world to see.
