Bondi Beach?

 

I didn't really have anything original to contribute at the time.  I thought that I would wait until more information came out.  But (and correct me if I'm wrong) it turns out that the Jewish organization that hosted the Hanukkah celebration at Bondi Beach was an intensely zionist [read: murderously racist/fascist] outfit, led by a guy, Rabbi Eli Schlanger, who gleefully celebrated the mass-slaughter of Palestinian men, women and children.  Which, if our mainstream news organizations weren't garbage outfits filled with cowards, ignoramuses, hypocrites, careerists and other forms of useless scum, would make this whole thing seem almost like poetic justice.

Australia has strict gun laws and the son of the father-son team of shooters was already being monitored by Australian intelligence for his ties to the rabid, fundamentalist Islamic ISIS.  One could wonder whether this was a deliberate failure on the part of the Australian authorities.  But most police, intelligence agencies, etc., are generally filled with right-wing, stupid, boasting, delusional imbeciles.  They are often lazy and careless.  Don't ascribe to malice what can be blamed on stupidity and incompetence.

Would the psychopaths in Mossad have willingly sacrificed their own people for a propaganda coup, as Israel's reputation deservedly drops into the sewer?  It's possible.  But Schlanger was, I've heard, rather high up in importance both in Israel and Australia.  I don't think the zionists are going to reap that much benefit from the death of a fat, racist, pig who giggled about Palestinian toddlers being shot in the head.

Of course our nauseatingly hypocritical shit-for-brains automatons in the West are blathering about how some guys who started associating with ISIS in 2019 were really influenced by anti-genocide protests starting in 2023 when Israel began its deliberate genocide of the Palestinians in Gaza. In the diseased brains of scum like Mark Carney, Australian PM Anthony Albanese, and all the other assortments of "leaders" in their "international community" this is just "antisemitism."  And "antisemitism" is the irrational, bigoted hatred of Jewish people simply for being Jewish.

Someone could be a genuine antisemite (like Charlie Kirk, or Marjorie Taylor Greene, or John F. Kennedy) and they would therefore more easily find the murderous racism of Israel to be objectionable.  Other people, primarily but not exclusively, on the political left, have no objection to Judaism, and do not criticize Israel except for its murderously racist apartheid colonialism.  And I mention this about Leftists because in my decades of association with leftist causes and groups I hardly ever hear any talk about Israel's behaviour or Israeli-zionist influence in other countries as being based on the inherently evil dispositions of Jewish people and their terrifying, satanic control over world events.

No. Ninety-nine point some number way above five percent of the time, I only hear criticism of the Israeli state for actions that would be condemned no matter what country was doing them.  It's when I go to right-wing sites (as I tend to do more now as centrists and progressives have let their brains turn to shit with regards to Russia-Ukraine) that I read racist drivel about hook-nosed international bankers taking over countries and sexually molesting Christian adolescents because that's just the way they roll.

Nonetheless, the idiotic thesis that protesting genocide is antisemitic if it is Israel committing the genocide, that an organization that cheered and assisted that genocide, including the revolting figure of Rabbi Eli Schlanger were just innocent people who never meant any harm to anyone, that two guys associated with ISIS since 2019 didn't even know that Israel has been conducting a genocide since 2023 and they attacked that Hannukah celebration simply because they hate Jews, ... all of that insane garbage is how our political leaders and our mainstream media have framed this story.
