THE murders of 15 people who had been happily celebrating the Jewish festival of Chanukah on Bondi Beach were the consequence firstly of Islamo-fascist, racist, barbarism.
We in the West have experienced that plenty of times before. Even if we don’t always call it out for what it is. But Jewish people experience it more often than most. And live in fear of it happening again.
But it was also a consequence of the stupidity, cowardice and twisted moral values of our own societies.
And the people who lead those societies. Of our complete failure to protect our most vulnerable ethnic minority community, the Jews.
And of a creeping antisemitism which has gripped hold of the lefties and the liberals. Here, on mainland Europe and in Australia.
These Islamists who the liberals simper around are not ‘fighting for freedom’

Two gunmen opened fire on the throng partying on the beach. One of them wandering along shooting people at point blank range.
Racial hatred in his eyes. Picking people off at random. A psychotic hatred common to all Islamists.
Rising tide
It had immediate echoes of the savage Hamas terrorist attacks on unarmed young partygoers in Israel on October 7, 2023.
Remember, the Bondi Beach murders were not an attack upon Israel, though.
They were the racist murders of Jewish people.
No matter how twisted and idiotic your views of what happened in Gaza, which was basically the forces of civilisation versus the forces of the manically obsessed stone age, this cannot be laid at Israel’s door.
The truth is easy to see. These Islamists who the liberals simper around are not “fighting for freedom”.
They are not the pitiable underdogs who we should all support in their struggle for a state.
They are racist murderers who wish to annihilate the Jewish people.
Can we be clear about that, please?
The Australian Prime Minister, the widely disliked Labor Party halfwit Anthony Albanese, immediately came out with the usual platitudes. “This was an attack on all Australians,” he said, crying crocodile tears.
No it wasn’t, Albanese. It wasn’t an attack upon all Australians at all. It was an attack upon Jewish people.
And it was an attack YOU helped facilitate by your stoking up of hatred against Israel.
So much stoking up that Jews in Israel already felt unsafe by the rising tide of antisemitic attacks. And had told you of their worries time and time again.
But you did nothing to stop those attacks, Albanese.
Indeed, you can see footage online of the speccy dork, earlier in his career, attending one of those almost perpetual anti-Israel demos. Denouncing Israel through a loud hailer.
The kind of demos we see every week in London, so that Jewish people are scared to go out.
Radical Muslims plus the usual dim-as-a-block-of-wood whiteys decked in keffiyehs, all joining in with the chants of “globalise the Intifada”.
Well, Bondi Beach is the consequence of the Intifada being globalised. That’s what they mean, when they chant it, you idiots. Kill the Jews everywhere.
They don’t mean draft a resolution to the United Nations. Or start a petition. They mean kill the Jews. All the Jews, everywhere. These are people who think Hitler was remiss for not having “finished the job”.
We recognised Palestine, stupidly. Just so the Prime Minister could show off his rad credentials to the lefties.

Albanese had been warned by the Israel PM Benjamin Netanyahu. Warned that his behaviour was making attacks more likely.
Warned that recognising Palestine as a state — which we did here, too, unforgivably — would legitimise hatred again Jews.
Netanyahu said: “Four months ago, I wrote to the Australian prime minister that your policy is pouring oil on the fire of antisemitism.”
He was unequivocally right. And the result was Bondi Beach. But we’re no better over here.
As I say, we recognised Palestine, stupidly. Just so the Prime Minister could show off his rad credentials to the lefties. You spineless amoral coward, Starmer.
Then there are the protests. Every week or so in London. On our university campuses where Jewish students are victimised. All this hatred poured upon one group of people. One race. A monomania.
Nobody marching about the murders in Nigeria or Sudan. None of the lefties moaning about Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, or the Chinese persecution of Muslims in Urumqi. Just Israel. Always just Israel. Just the Jews.
That is antisemitism. The notion that the only ills that matter in the world are those committed by Jewish people. And that they must be punished for it.
So, all you third division politicians over here. And you wet-lipped babbling luvvies. And you useless rock stars. Maybe now you will have a moment of epiphany.
A bit like that scene in That Mitchell And Webb Look, where David Mitchell’s SS stormtrooper notices a skull on his helmet and asks, plaintively: “Are we the baddies?”
Yes, you always were. The thick-as-mince Bobby Gillespie of Primal Scream and the semi house-trained children in Bob Vylan.
Paloma Faith, Michael Sheen — all the rest of you pro-Palestine groupies. You have been on the wrong side.
Wrong side
The racist side. The anti-democratic side. The side that stones homosexuals and murders people in a park. The side that rapes young girls.
The side that is responsible for most of the terror attacks in the world today. You were all on the wrong side. Perhaps it is time, now, that you woke up?
The West must stand unequivocally against the evil ideology that wrought this massacre, not just in word but in deed
But I don’t suppose they will wake up. There is kudos to be had in shouting “from the river to the sea”, even if you haven’t a clue what river is being referred to, still less what sea.
We have brought this upon ourselves and upon our most productive and most loyal ethnic minority community.
I will end this article with a statement from the campaigning group Together Against Antisemitism. And when you read it, remember the last line. Remember.
“For many Jews, this is increasingly what the world feels like — a place where we are either being vilified, or slaughtered, or sent thoughts and prayers, but never protected.
“The West must stand unequivocally against the evil ideology that wrought this massacre, not just in word but in deed. The guns that today slaughter Jews will tomorrow turn on others.”
