Anti-semitic attack proves need for racial vilification laws : Comments

By Alan Berman and John Anderson, published 14/8/2014

The recent incident on the bus in Bondi Beach in which approximately 30 children aged between five and twelve years old were terrorised with anti-Semitic taunts and physical threats is a timely reminder of the ongoing need for community vigilance.

Aren't you so anti-Semitic you consider Holocaust deniers a pack of wet poofs?

Isn't life a Jewish banking conspiracy for you?

Pete,
Holocaust Deniers are mostly liberal humanists who think that the Germans are "just like us" and that genial, avuncular Mr Hitler just wanted everyone in Europe to have nice things.
You use the buzz word "Anti Semitism", I use the buzz word "accountability", if Jews are going to let wingnuts and liars speak on their behalf they have to put up with being mocked and ridiculed by people like me. We laughed at Peter Reith when all those kiddies went "overboard" didn't we?
As for bankers I couldn't care less, I live from hand to mouth, always have, I've got no savings, no super and no investments so it's no concern of mine who's in charge of the banks.

Phanto,

"If racial or religious abuse is not put into a proper context then one can only presume that the parents are trying to instil in their children a sense of unreal fear. They want their children to act according to fear and not reason. That fear stays with these kids and they grow up to be the paranoid adults who want to control every corner of society and stop people from even looking sideways at Jews."

You know this for sure, do you ? Or is this what they call "projection", imposing your own fantasies on other people ?

Or is it anti-Semitism, pure and simple ?

This was an exclusive Jewish bus transporting only Jewish children. Why then did the bus driver allow on non- Jews,thus allowing this to happen? I think we need an eyewitness account.

No, Arjay, it was a school bus, it picked up any school kids along its route.

But perhaps you could read something nefarious and conspiratorial into that :)

AJ: *I think we need an eyewitness account.* not the bus driver though; according to news reports at the time, he failed to notice the incident at all!
I think this incident has been blown-up of of all proportion: Normal schoolboy rivalry coupled with an over sensitive community response!
