It is time for good people to act : Comments

By Julie Claridge, published 23/12/2025

Australia did not fail the Jewish community at Bondi. It failed them earlier, when hatred was tolerated, justified and allowed to grow unchecked.

We live by using our instinctive behaviour.
Some instincts developed to protect us hundreds of thousands of years ago, are not really suited to our modern society.
So we need intelligent control of our instinctive behaviour.
People must be taught about instinctive behaviour, and how best to control and re-direct it.
Then many problems will disappear?
I think it is that simple.

"Calls to 'globalise the intifada' and 'from the river to the sea' have gone unchecked, with Australian Jews being asked to bear the consequences without redress."

Stop lying.
Jews in foreign countries are bearing the indirect consequences of what's happening in Gaza, and rising Anti-Semitism is merely a response to the moral outrage people are feeling due to the footage they've seen of continued atrocities committed by Jews and the frustration of inaction.

Jews willingness to ban my right to speak freely and on a basis of merit in my own country gives me more reason for animosity not less.

You can't legislate love and respect.
If you want love, first learn that respect is a 2 way street.
Stop lying to yourselves, and start being more honest with yourselves.

Armchair Critic,
lol, shouldn't you be thinking stop having yourself on & think about what you're thinking ?
And, yes your advise is sound when you apply it to yourself also.
I think indoctrination in the guise of education & religious ideology are the root cause of the idiocy that is Western mentality now. Dark age mentality is approving of that as its most valuable tool. If either succeeds, human kind is definitely doomed. If we can rid ourselves of Dark Age & modern Western mentality we'll have a chance ! Neither can ever be a solution as the degree of stupidity within both is guaranteed annihilation !

#… Evil prevails when good people do nothing…#

Who judges who are actually the good people in question, and the judgement made on action versus inaction of the cohort categorised as the “good people”.

Aren’t the good people those who chanted death to the Jews in front of the opera house; and the good caring people who marched across the Harbour Bridge bearing banners praising terrorism, with further chants of death to the Jews, with familiar faces in the crowd identifying prominent politicians demonstrating against a non-existent genocide in Gaza, and other misrepresentations of “good”?

Isn’t the fact that no official action was taken by any “good” authority with an ability to act against such obvious wrong, a signalling that the “good people” are actually the bad people totally responsible for the shoot-up of innocent civilians at Bondi, with sixteen deaths and multiple injuries, now attributed to antisemitism, and a stampede of the good people galloping onto the side of a new perception of good behaviour, supportive of Antisemitism?

The problem is glaringly not one of inaction of the good people, but the actions of the “good” people misrepresenting the value of “good”.

If the good Jews wish to overcome the problems of antisemitism then they need to be proactive. They should organize a few ships, loaded with food and other provisions to help the refugees who are stranded in Gaza because of the actions of Benyamin Netanyahu whose only aim in life seems to be to make the lives of Palestinians as uncomfortable as possible.

VK3AUU,
It's time for Palestinians to prove that there are good people among them also. Now that the conflicts are ceasing shouldn't the 'refugees' return home & start becoming a working society ?

People are warlike.
They want to be aggressive in some way.
They will find a reason to fight.
If they didn't have religion as a reason, they would find another.
There is always something.
Such as racial difference.
Even here in these pages, there is 'fighting' of a kind.
Posters will deride each other using aggressive language.
It satisfies some need in them.
Is there a solution?
To educate people seems to be the best idea.
Teach them how to use reason to lead themselves away from aggression.
A big task.
Teach them to use their strength and talent to create and not destroy.
And they need to feel satisfaction with whatever they do.

Ipso fatso,
Good assessment. My view is that there are now so many in unproductive positions like bureaucracy, a huge section in the Arts, Sport, Media etc etc who are now outnumbering the actual productive revenue providers.
They're the ones who will fight tooth & nail to preserve their income no matter how morally unwarranted. They're the challenge for society to juggle. They're the ones who contribute the least to this nation yet are allowed to benefit from every loophole available. Too much money is leaving Australia for literally nothing in return. Economic migrants for example are earning money here yet spending it overseas with absolutely no consideration to the folk here. In a nutshell, too many people are diverting a lot of money away from Australia's economy which puts enormous pressure on the community here. Good people are simply getting tired of working for nothing in return & watch others enjoy an easy life ! They're now ready to act ! One Nation is presently the only political party that openly offers the change so desperately needed !

The hatred and history of unclarified anti-semitic stunts suggesting violence and now a real shooting*.

Will get the same repeat from police and security agencies most admitting no idea and dead end, till Netanyahu obliged by blaming Iran...too easy...

Responsibility is first and foremost with the perps and anyone directly related, and our disgusting RW MSM and commentators post incident; led by Fox News editorials and presenters who openly spruik anti-semitic tropes of the white Christian nationalist right?

Not just making partisan political hay vs the government and centre, but following the Heritage Foundation's Project Esther's objectives.

Attacking the centre and Palestine, while Netanyahu, an ally of Trump and Putin, doesn't care about Israeli hostages, but his own survival.....

Andrew Smith,
Which do you consider more important to address, people trying to prevent a World Caliphate or a World Caliphate ?
