This is a dishonest article.
You can't mention Bondi without mentioning Gaza.
There's a fairly good chance the two are linked.
- And I want answers as to motive by the surviving perpetrator.
If we can't get those answers, then a RC with be a stageshow.

Stop bitching about Anti-Semitism, I'm sick of hearing about it.
I'm sure Netanyahu knew there would be blowback to diaspora Jews post October 7, Bondi is blowback or it's a false flag.

If Israel earns criticism then it deserves to face it just as the Bondi perpetrators, end of story.
Do you think ISIS cares about accusations of Anti-Semitism?
Did the Palestinian protestors conduct a terrorist attack?
They're marching because they oppose a ICJ confirmed genocide and want the slaughter of innocents to stop.

>>The Israeli Ministry of Foreign Affairs commissioned an American polling firm to perform a sweeping battery of surveys and focus groups, coupled with message-testing, aimed at rehabilitating Israel’s image in both the United States and Europe.

"Israel’s best tactic to combat this, according to the study, is to foment fear of 'Radical Islam' and 'Jihadism', which remain high, the research finds. By highlighting Israeli support for women’s rights and gay rights while elevating concerns that Hamas wants to “destroy all Jews and spread Jihadism,” Israeli support rebounded by an average of over 20 points in each country.<<

Israel are playing the right to do their dirty work, and they are also playing the left, article in the Australian below paywalled.

Iranians are crying for freedom – where are the mass rallies by progressives?
http://tinyurl.com/2tktpm3s
'The activists who chanted for Palestine are silent as Iran’s brave people risk their lives fighting a brutal theocracy.'

It's this stupid idea that criticisms towards Israel are Anti-Semitic if you don't criticise others equally, so if the left doesn't criticise Iran and do the genocide-states dirty work then they are Anti-Semites too.

You're all being played for fools.
If our nation is becoming divided then we should at least recognise when a foreign entity is trying to throw fuel on the fire to manipulate us to become their 'useful idiots'.

The idea of equal criticism fails because no other nation exerts the influence Israel does on the U.S. with AIPAC buying the loyalty of nearly all congress.
- As does all the other crap in the IHRC's 'working definition' of Anti-Semitism that Albo has committed us to, which I'm considering giving a scathing rebuke to.

Jews have been manufacturing terrorists and Anti-Semites themselves.
My criticisms become animosity when you criminalise my free speech.

Most of the Islamic immigrants are a product of Netanyahus wars across the M/E and beyond over the past 30 years anyway, under the Clean Break Policy and the War on Terror.

Have you heard of Lebanon, Syria or Somalia by chance, just to name a few Zionist wars? Israel just carved off a chunk of Somalia (Somaliland) for a future Palestinian State and to attack Houthis from, (Somalia objected) they don't care about other nations soverignty or territorial integrity, but they will keep a war going for 100 years to expand their own territory and for the biblical Greater Israel

America is now a rogue state, and Zionists are maniplative parasites.

Hey Armchair Critic, your long rant starts with " This is a dishonest article. You can't mention Bondi without mentioning Gaza..."
If you actually read the article, it mentions Gaza three times in one sentence:"... What has our government done since then? Recognised Palestine; sent taxpayer cash to Gaza; granted many more visas to largely unvetted Gazan 'refugees' than any other country; tossed around the word 'genocide' in relation to Gaza.."
Bondi and Gaza are just part of the story showing how "keeping the bastards honest" has failed miserably under the Albanese government.

Armchair Critic.
Is this article about a history lesson?
However, if you insist, how about this re Israel/Palestine: ”On November 29, 1947, the UN General Assembly voted on the partition plan, adopted by 33 votes to 13 with 10 abstentions. The Jewish side accepted the UN plan for the establishment of two states. The Arab states rejected the plan and almost immediately formed volunteer armies that infiltrated into Palestine against the Jews.” They have been fighting Israel ever since!! HAMAS RULE Gaza currently and they were the ones who attacked Israel and to go back further than that is a waste of time. There was peace prior to 7TH October 2023.
This article is about our current AUSTRALIAN GOVERNMENT I feel.
Armchair Critic, are you a person who follows every forum just to support Palestine at every opportunity or else to support the biggest political group of dishonest politicians sitting in Canberra under PM Albanese?.
Never before have we seen TERRORISM come to our shores except on 14th December under ALBANESE. That was not from his leadership either – but from the LACK OF LEADERSHIP from a redundant and spineless prime minister.
Australia had TWO YEARS of warnings about terrorist groups being within our country. The weak and traitorous Albanese, Wong and Burke have let this massacre occur on their watch.
This prime minister is leading Australia away from the values that Australia has prospered by. Our pioneering ancestors worked hard to produce a wonderful country for all people. Terrorists should not be allowed to tear us down – go to Palestine is that is their aim.
For this PRIME MINISTER to be stonewalling the demands for A ROYAL COMMISSION must be that he is so frightened that his incompetency will be blown wide open.
He was all for Royal Commissions when in OPPOSITION, such is the hypocrite that he is.
PM Albanese would have been warned by our security organisations (we all were) about these terrorist groups. He chose to ignore all being more interested in his love life

The Teals have now also joined the massive chorus of voices calling for a Royal Commission.

Like Farnortherner, I think the government is refusing to call a Commission because it knows the results of a proper inquiry will reflect on it very badly. It has ignored warnings from its own security agency that the risk of terrorist attacks has increased, largely ignored the recommendations of the inquiry it commissioned into antisemitism, and tolerated a massive upsurge in public demonstrations of hate speech and calls for political violence.

Unfortunately, if the Government does eventually cave in to the massive pressure for a RC (as I suspect it will have to do) then it will be able to set its terms of reference and pick who will lead it. It is likely that both will be carefully selected so that the government’s own culpability in this atrocity is minimised or obscured.

I have said this before I think.
There is/was war in Gaza and surrounds.
There are those who are intensely anti-israel and anti-jewish-persons.
They see no difference if those jewish persons are in another country
They will attack them anywhere.
And a determined aggressor will always find a way.
All we can do is minimise the potential harm.
We cannot stop it altogether.
Have we ever managed to wipe out crime?
A determined aggressor will always find a way.
We appear to be doing our best to keep the peace.
By all means be verbal if the government makes statements which are misleading.
Keep demanding the truth.
Make a concerted effort to follow up on this, and keep following up?
But also do your best to assist government.
If there are better ways of gathering 'intelligence' to avoid harmful incidents, the government needs to hear about them.
So instead of warbling on about government omission all the time, be helpful some of the time.
Stop with constantly carping away, and in the process creating a big negative cloud of doubt and worry.
Be far more positive than negative.
We have a good government. Let's keep it that way.

Ipso Fatso
You have a totally different view from mine if you think we have a GOOD government.
This hopeless leader has been the worst Prime Minister ever in my lifetime.
Australia has never been in such a mess. The Home Affairs Minister and the Minister for Foreign Affairs have no intention of keeping Australia safe with the way they are allowing all and sundry into this country without even checking them in properly.

What has happened to those 149 illegal immigrant dangerous criminals that Claire O'Neill and Andrew Giles let go free?
Talk about Ministers for Home Affairs and Multicultural Affairs alright.

Think on this truism then:

#…The irony of circumstances holds no mortal catastrophe in respect…#

Albanese is totally under the sway of circumstances; this is a game in Politics, and one which seperate the men from the boys; all very common in war. See how Zelenskyy plays this one with intrigue, especially in his dealings with Trump.

Pretty much, Australians hold their breath for the humbling by circumstances of Albanese, circumstances associated with the Bondi massacre, and those circumstances hold no respect for party at all, neither Jew nor Gentile.

Which way does the ball bounce next?

Hi Mikko2,
The author didn't mention it once in the way he should've,
IF HE WERE TO BE HONEST, but he did in the way he shouldn't have.

* "tossed around the word 'genocide' in relation to Gaza"

The moment someone says that they tell me a lot about how they think.
'Palestine is not a country'
'There are no Palestinians'
'There is no genocide'
[Rolls eyes]

This narrative that seeks to minimize to nothing what's happening there, like...
-it's not even an attempted justification of whats happening,
(like when they repeat October 7! October 7! October 7!)
-it's an attempt to say 'Don't believe your lying eyes AC' with all those heinous atrocities you saw Israel do on all those videos you watched on X.'Palestine's not a country','There are no Palestinians','There's no genocide'. Pffft.

Don't mention the hundreds of thousands of women and kids that were killed, no.
'How dare they just throw the word 'genocide' around willy nilly?' [Authors thoughts]
Yeah mate, I know where you're at.

"What has our government done since then?
Recognised Palestine"
I have no issue with this, if you do, tell me why
"sent taxpayer cash to Gaza"
I'm usually opposed to foreign aid.
It 'feels' a little like treason to help foreigners, when you've got Aussies on hospital waiting lists and sleeping in parks and cars...

For Gaza...

lacking food and water,
home brand band-aids and panadols for blown off limbs, gunshot wounds?

maybe we could help just once?

Maybe blankets?
Do women/girls need tampons?
Do Palestinians eat 2-minute noodles?

Can we spare any anesthetic for kids having amputations at least?
If nothing else, like just that, please?

No good if Israel doesn't let the aid in.
Shoots people coming to collect it.

"granted many more visas to largely unvetted Gazan 'refugees' than any other country"

As of August 2024, Australia granted approximately 2,922 migration and temporary visas to people declaring Palestinian citizenship since October 7, 2023. However, only an estimated 1,300 of these individuals have arrived in Australia.
In the same period, over 8,700 visas were granted to Israeli citizens.

Hi Farnortherner,
"The Jewish side accepted the UN plan for the establishment of two states. The Arab states rejected the plan and almost immediately formed volunteer armies that infiltrated into Palestine against the Jews."

Do you own your own home?
And if so, I was thinking about moving over to your place.
I'll only take half, promise and I won't be any trouble.
You need to understand that God gave your house tom me.
[sic]

"There was peace prior to 7TH October 2023"
- Show's what you know.

"Armchair Critic, are you a person who follows every forum just to support Palestine at every opportunity or else to support the biggest political group of dishonest politicians sitting in Canberra under PM Albanese?."
- No, I only share my thoughts and beliefs here.
Do you want me to hate those Labor traitors (agreed) so that I vote for the other unelectable LNP traitors?

"Never before have we seen TERRORISM come to our shores except on 14th December under ALBANESE."
- Yes it's an unfortunate tragedy.
I wonder why they might've attacked Jews at this particular time?
[Rolls eyes]
Couldn't possibly be because of Gaza?

"That was not from his leadership either – but from the LACK OF LEADERSHIP from a redundant and spineless prime minister.
Australia had TWO YEARS of warnings about terrorist groups being within our country. The weak and traitorous Albanese, Wong and Burke have let this massacre occur on their watch."

What did you expect Albo to be down there waiting and hiding, ready to jump out from behind the bushes and apprehend both perpetrators with his bare hands? Maybe Albo's a registered firearms owner?

Before we go assuming there was a data trail that might have indicated what they planned, let's first find out whether one existed in the first place.

"This prime minister is leading Australia away from the values that Australia has prospered by."
- What values are they? and maybe it's not all Albo's fault and the world is changing beyond anyone's one persons control."

[Cont.]

"Terrorists should not be allowed to tear us down – go to Palestine is that is their aim."
- I agree, but you can't control what others do.

"For this PRIME MINISTER to be stonewalling the demands for A ROYAL COMMISSION must be that he is so frightened that his incompetency will be blown wide open."
- I think they're all incompetent, political point scoring doesn't matter.

"PM Albanese would have been warned by our security organisations (we all were) about these terrorist groups."
Yes, and I bet Netanyahu was told that Diaspora Jews might face Blowback or retribution with his continued aggression against women and kids, but he continued with his grand scheme anyway.

Is that the fault of Aussies down at the beach?

Who's to blame for Bondi?

Netanyahu for causing the anger and frustration of Muslims or Albo for not looking into his crystal ball and seeing the future to prevent it?

Did Gaza cause Bondi?
I want to hear what the surviving perpetrator has to say for himself. I want to know why he did it.

Do you, or do you want to blame everyone else to score political points against someone you see as a traitor?

Get rid of 'dumb' so we can replace them with 'dumber'?

Farnortherner, good to see some rational input stating true facts. Don't know about you but I think Armchair Critic with his long-winded antisemitic rants really needs that armchair while the rest of us deal with real events in the real world. I also agree that the current government is the worst we've seen and that includes Whitlam's (which says a lot)..

Hi Ipso fatso,

"There are those who are intensely anti-israel and anti-jewish-persons.
They see no difference if those jewish persons are in another country
They will attack them anywhere."

The exact same thing can be said for the Israelis themselves.
At what point will you all see that every accusation that's levelled at one side is equally true for the other?

Let me give you an example.

Just after U.S forces kidnapped Maduro.
Venezuelan VP Delsy Rodriguiz came out and blamed Zionists
http://x.com/AdameMedia/status/2007595300295454901

From Google AI
Then, Colombian President Gustavo Petro stated he would be willing to "take up arms again" in the face of threats to his country's sovereignty by the United States, following US military action in Venezuela. He has also called for a UN-mandated "international army" to stop the "genocide" in Gaza and liberate Palestine, an armed force he has offered Colombian soldiers for and expressed readiness to join.

The President of Columbia is daring President Trump to get him like he did Maduro.
Petro. “Come get me, coward, I'm waiting for you here.”

He also said Trump was doing it after his scandals regarding disclosure of the Epstein files and says Zionists are trying to take over the world.

The best I've seen thus far !

[Ipso Fatso cont]

Now back to what you stated:
"There are those who are intensely anti-israel and anti-jewish-persons.
They see no difference if those jewish persons are in another country
They will attack them anywhere."

Trump will pretty do whatever Netanyahu tells him right now.

You think people are going after the Jews, is that blowback from Gaza or a false flag by Israel themselves just like the dancing Israelis after 9/11?

It's Israel that is using the United States to attack countries and remove leaders 'in another country' (your words) who vote in support of Palestinian Statehood at the UN.

Evidence of this mindset is right here on this forum in the form of David Singers last article.
'14 Nations continue to fuel Jew-hatred around the world',
- that's a hitlist just like Wesley Clarks 7 wars in 5 years.
http://youtu.be/x17KVOiiGfI

Where do you think all the Muslims came from?
Netanyahus wars!

Democracy has been subverted by Zionist interests.
It's past it's used by date if we don't look at the situation seriously.
Anti-Semitism is just a made up word to shut down and criminalise people like me who speak the truth.

What's this?

From Google AI
Australia's Liberal National Party (LNP) opposition has
vowed to reverse the current Labor government's official recognition of a Palestinian state if the Coalition wins the next election.
The current position, articulated by Opposition Leader Sussan Ley, is that the recognition of Palestinian statehood should only occur at the end of a "proper peace process," not during ongoing conflict.

Traitor Number 1 for recognising the IHRC working definition of anti-semitism.
Traitor number 2 has already fully pledged loyalty to Israel.

"And a determined aggressor will always find a way."
- You said it not me.

"They will attack anywhere"
- exactly.

You're have a handful of Jewish deaths and millions of Jewish caused deaths.

People want me to be so outraged with one side of politics that I support the other, but at this point I cant support either.

Truth does not depend on the number of words, weird theories and length of rants posted by a critic in his armchair!

That's twice you've slagged me off mikko2

I'm quite capable of arguing my points on merit, but it does take time to write out my reasons effectively and I only get 4 posts a day.

I'm happy to argue out every single point I've made here on a basis of merit including having a mock trial of Albo's laws on Anti-Semitism, because I'm more or less ready to draw a line in the sand and stand up for my own rights, since they are being taken away by people like you who seem to claim to know about the real world, but don't.

We can argue out every point I've made if you want?
You'll lose, so be my guest.

I don't think you have it in you, I think it's easier for people like yourself to slag me off then argue on a basis of merit.

You all want to persecute me for opinions?
Go ahead and prove my positions unreasonable.

From what I've seen so far I'm the only person on the entire forum who actually wants to know the Bondi perpetrators motive.
I welcome it.

The rest of you seem to be running around like headless chooks pointing fingers, chasing ghosts.

And as for your comments, you spent more time slagging me off then demostrating any position of your own or reason for these positions.
- Forcing me to waste my responses when you don't have anything of substance to add anyway.

If we're going to have a RC on anti-semitism, then I really hope there are submissions from people critical to Israel that way the people accused can defend themselves and that this taxpayer funded charade really is dedicated to the truth.

Go ahead and itemise all the things I've said that you object to, and we can go through them, if you dare.

Google? holocaust survivor labels Israel genocide

Yes, numerous Holocaust survivors and their descendants have publicly condemned Israel's military actions, particularly in Gaza, and some have explicitly used the term "genocide" to describe the situation.
These individuals and groups have voiced their opinions in open letters, protests, and interviews, drawing parallels between the historical atrocities they or their families experienced and the current suffering of Palestinians.
Key points regarding this stance:

Public Statements: In 2014 and in the ongoing conflict since October 2023, groups of survivors and their descendants have published statements in newspapers and online, unequivocally condemning the "massacre of Palestinians in Gaza" and the "ongoing occupation and colonization".
Use of Terminology: They have stated that "Never again" must mean "NEVER AGAIN FOR ANYONE," arguing that the unique history of the Holocaust should not be used to justify impunity for the Israeli state.
Individual Voices: Specific survivors, such as Agnes Kory and Stephen Kaposi, have attended protests and given emotional testimonies where they labeled Israel's actions as genocide, comparing proposed plans for Palestinian confinement to steps toward a "final solution".
Scholarly Support: These views are supported by a number of prominent Holocaust and genocide scholars, including Israeli citizens like Amos Goldberg and Omer Bartov, who argue that the actions and the accompanying dehumanizing language from some Israeli officials meet the legal definition of genocide.

Even Holocaust survivors accept Israel is committing genocide.
They compare Israels action to that of NAZI's with their argument for 'Final solution' which is valid.

I contend that NAZI's 'Master Race' and Jews 'God's Chosen People' mentalities share similarities and that this particular comparison should not be banned under the IHRA working definition.

Because one idealogy is a religion doesn't make it any less questionable.

I can go through this whole entire document if necessary.
