Just horrendous. There was a big Jewish gathering on the beach. Jewish festival goers targeted by two gunmen. At least ten people dead according to police.

@Lifesd Australia desperately needs a wake up call in this regard.

They were shooting at people attending a Hannukah event. It's disgusting that you're trying to pretend this wasn't a targeted attack. No wonder Jews feel unsafe around the world with people like you excusing their murders.

The badges comment is really quite revolting

Have some empathy. This post is awful.

MrsBennetsPoorNervesAreBack · 14/12/2025 10:26

I'm very sorry for all of those who have been affected by this. For those who have been injured and lost their lives, obviously, and of course their loved ones. But also for the many other people around the world who will understandably be feeling under threat today because of this horrific attack.

It was an advertised as Chanukah by the sea, a family event on Bondi Beach.

How much more evidence do you need? Apologists like you simply serve to legitimise the terrorists.

Everyone knows what the issue is which is why governments bend over backwards to stop people talking about it.

habin · 14/12/2025 10:27

And clearly targeting an open air event where the tight security behind the doors of synagogues doesn’t apply. Cowardly horrific act of antisemitism.

The news here (I’m in Australia) are saying there was a bomb.

Don’t feed the troll above by quoting its post. Just report.

TBH I’m surprised someone hasn’t come on here yet and posted something about Israel’s actions in Gaza being part of the problem in justification.

The fact is that if you’re shooting jewish people at an event for a Jewish holiday then it is antisemitic, and anyone who tries to argue differently is clearly part of the narrative so is best ignored.

Happyhettie · 14/12/2025 10:30

I’ve reported the post about the badges.

Its horrendous, absolutely awful. A terrorist attack in this day & age, on a peaceful beach should never happen. Ive seen no reports its linked to the Jewish community being targeted - so to suggest that in this thread is incorrect.

This is so terrible and my whole heart goes out to everyone involved and the wider Jewish community.

It shows the absolute worst of humanity but also the very best, as demonstrated by that brave man who wrestled the gun away and prevented more injury or loss of life occurring.

They said the same on the BBC, that the police are still working in the area to investigate reports of IEDs.

I mean, it is part of the problem. I'm not a troll - i have an opinion that's different to yours.

I’m surprised that a thread hadn’t already been started.
yes, totally unsurprising. We’ve had politicians supporting terrorists here in the UK, it’s a massive growing issue.

There were two threads started before this one.

EleanorReally · 14/12/2025 10:32

nine killed
so awful

Your post was one of the worst things I’ve seen on MN. Maybe you didn’t intend it but go back and think about history linking Jews and badges.
