Melbourne Synagogue Firebombing Finally Treated as Terrorism

And yet an other thread where I get banned defending the Jews because some people who definately don't hate them will try to claim that this isn't an act of anti-Semitism because of what's happening in the Middle East is somehow supposed to justify the actions of people on the opposite side of the world because as everyone knows, two wrongs make a right, especially when the first wrong is on the opposite side of the fucking planet. I definately can't wait...

So a synagogue in Melbourne, Australia's second largest city was fire-bombed on Friday. This comes after various other anti-Jewish attacks such as when people were vandalising cars in suburbs of Sydney with high Jewish populations, and people at a shopping centre chanting "Kill the Jews" when celebrating the fall of Asaad.

Fuck me dead the anti-Semitism has gotten worse. I've been warning everyone on NS about it for over a year, but no body believed that it was true. Our incompetent and inept boob posing as a prime minister finally did something and implied it was terrorism, and will work with the federal police to set up a taskforce against anti-Semitism. Which finally, took long enough!

What? What does being anti-Assad have to do with killing Jews? I’d expect the opposite, if anything. Did the Australian media just see a conspicuous gathering of Arabs and declare it anti-Semitism?

They were chanting "Kill the Jews" in Arabic. Why? Your guess is as good as mine

Wow that was not very nice of you. Of course I don’t think the Jews control the media, clearly it’s the Aussies who are to blame.

Yes, posted in the description. Also, considering that a synagogue was firebombed and there was a separate incident of people vandalising cars that they put a half-arsed effort into asserting belongs to Jewish people, the media has enough actual Antisemitism to work with, they don't need to fabricate anything. Also, most of our media is too pro-Palestine to fabricate something like this. Please don't feed into the "The Jews control the media" claptrap that contributes to this kind of Antisemitism

Well, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to be rude, but assuming that the media would fabricate something like this does contribute to that theory, whether you intend it to or not. I'm sorry, I didn't mean to be rude, though

The source is paywalled, and considering it’s Australian, there’s a 50% chance it’s Murdoch slop.


Ok, I looked it up and it’s literally a News Corp tabloid. Yeah, good odds of it being bullshit anti-Arab hatemongering.

I can't find an other source, so I'll concede that there's a chance that it could be fabricated (but as I said, I don't see why they would do that) however, just because you don't like the source, doesn't mean that it didn't happen

Okay, so I couldn't find an other source, but I did hear the NSW police commissioner say it for herself, so...

You were too busy whining about how posting this topic was going to get you banned to find out, presumably. Prime example of someone trying to make an antisemitic attack all about yourself.

The only injury reported is one man with a minor burn injury to his hand. The property damage is said to be extensive, however.

And the pogroms have now spread beyond Europe and the Middle East to Australia. No prizes for guessing the ethnicity and religion of the perpetrators.

Up here in Canada there are signs of improvement.

Within weeks of President Trump scaring P. M. Justin Trudeau with the threat of tariffs his party is ready to dump him......

and already here in Toronto an ISIS war criminal is finally being prosecuted. If Trump had not scared Trudeau's liberal Party.... I am guessing that he might still be walking around free.

If Pierre Poilievre become P. M. here he will likely do something about terrorist acts against synagogues.
