It’s all so terrifyingly predictable. The minute I heard the shocking news that there had been a terrorist attack at Bondi Beach, just outside Sydney in Australia, I automatically *knew* who the culprits would be. And so it turned out. I bet you did too.
Let’s just recap on what we know.
Around teatime last night a savage antisemitic terrorist shooting unfolded at Bondi Beach during the “Chanukah by the Sea” event celebrating the start of Hanukkah. Two gunmen opened fire around 6:45 p.m. on Campbell Parade, killing at least 12 people and injuring over 29 injured.
There is plenty of video footage of the event unfolding. The two Islamists involved were armed with heavy duty weapons and tragically the killings took place in a very short number of minutes. We can only imagine the terror that the families felt as they started to see people shot. Just awful. It is also obvious the killers knew this was a one way mission – they weren’t coming back from it but such is their hatred of Jews that they did it anyway. This was JIHAD.
Israel has rightly responded to this mass killing of Jew by calling out the Albanese Government. Israeli PM Netanyahu said he had warned Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese in an August letter that recognising a Palestinian state and other policies were “pouring fuel” on antisemitic hatred in Australia. Netanyahu presented the Bondi attack as a tragic confirmation of those warnings and as part of a global wave of antisemitic violence against Jews.
He’s right. Say what you want about Israel but once again we see Jews being slaughtered by Muslims and this surely underlines his point.
Now, in order to be fair and balanced, it should be pointed out that it a muslim street trader who courageously took down one of the killers. Here it is. His name is Ahmed el Ahmed a fruit shop owner. He saved lives and we should salute him,
However, the truth is that this was naked hatred of Jews by some of his co-religionists and it shows the FOLLY of letting such people into our Nations.
One final thought. One of those injured is Arsen Ostrovsky, He and I have followed each other for years on social media and I am relieved he survived. I give thanks for his wellbeing.
The truth is that Islam comes to conquer and will kill those it hates. Today it was Jews, tomorrow it could be Christians.
