I'm sure Albanese will get right on this

"Australia Cancels Christmas Rather Than Cancel Muslim Riots".

And there's also this: "Jewish bakery in Sydney shuts down after anti-Semitic threats following Bondi attack".

The bakery had faced nearly two years of persistent antisemitic harassment, including threats, vandalism, and intimidation. Management said the abuse continued even after the Bondi attack, ultimately forcing the decision to close. As a highly visible business operating long hours, the bakery said it could no longer protect its employees, patrons, or their families, calling the move a “heartbreaking” but necessary step.

I don't intend to single out Australia as being any worse than other places when it comes to creating these types of situations, largely via inadequate immigration controls; certainly, UK, France and the U.S. are guilty, probably far more so, when it comes to the same criminal indulgence of Muslim "sensibilities" and of not always backing up promises of security for the Jewish community. But outbreaks of anti-Semitism need to be highlighted when and where they occur; while the recent flaring up of this historical hatred appears to be driven largely by Muslims, the poison is spreading to elements of the non-Muslim population, as well, and suggests another ominous wave of the irrational in contemporary politics.

Also, based on comments from my Australian friends, it appears that the police did rather a more professional job in responding to the Biondi massacre than initially thought when I first posted on this tragedy, so I apologize for assuming that the initial reports were necessarily the last word on the subject. A couple of the police officers even took hits from the assassins and are in critical condition, so I wish them a full recovery.

  1. WTH?
    Extremist muslims see it as surrender and are emboldened.
    It makes it harder on non-murderous Muslims too.
