The article might be too hasty to report that he's Jewish, especially implying that was the motive by including it in the article title. Lots of chatter X/Twitter about it.

Kinda crazy (scary?) how fast tragic events like this get instantly politicized on social.

Given his background somehow doubt he is jewish, could be pro-israel. But all this could well be totally unrelated to the event itself.

Isnt it more likely that's due to him living in the US or the Terminator hypothesis?

It's possibly related to mistaken identity. There's apparently some guy with a similar name that has some tie to Israel. Articles and social just seem to be running with it without any fact checking.
