Bondi beach mass shooting

[habin]

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.

“Western countries, followers of what religions are responsible for terrorist acts?
Islam is the only one.”

I’m not going to argue anymore about this with you. You were the one that said there was only one religion that had terrorist members. I disagree. There is an enormous amount of information available on the internet about the White Christian nationalist background of some terrorist attacks. Here’s Just a very tiny bit of it. I’ve linked the time article - it’s worth a read.

“The Christchurch shooter in turn took particular inspiration from the ideology of a terrorist who killed nearly 100 people at a youth camp on Utøya island in Norway in 2011. The Utøya shooter also published a manifesto, which contains clear white Christian nationalist appeals throughout. He asked God to help him succeed in his mission to expel all Muslims from Europe, and he decried the way multiculturalism was deconstructing European culture and “European Christendom.” Toward the end of the document, he proclaimed, “Onward Christian soldiers! Celebrate us, the martyrs of the conservative revolution, for we will soon dine in the Kingdom of Heaven.”

it does no good to talk about one type of terrorist threat and not another.

Bloody religion still causing mayhem in this day and age.
human life lost is a tragedy regardless of religion.

heard of The Holocaust?

that's not answering the question

@Greysowhat that’s a pretty low thing to say even by ‘suggestion’.

It’s clear reading back from your subsequent post you are saying things in bad faith.

Also… dna testing is not banned by the ‘Zionist rulers’ it’s regulated as it is in France. More rubbish….

It's not religion that causes mayhem; it's evil people who use religion as a cover-up for their innate malevolence and who take verses out of context to get useful idiots to follow their wickedness. I can assure you, the world is chock-full of Muslims who do not murder people.

What was low?

They have no humanity.

Can I urge people to report anti semitism and not engage. It’s horrifically disrespectful on this thread particularly and MNHQ should deal with repeat offenders but we need to make them aware. This was a horrific event and my thoughts are with everyone involved, especially as I lit a candle last night to provide light and wish for peace.

Still lost sorry, you need to be clearer.

It’s not a myth.

That's a really, really dreadful terrible thing to say, not to mention breathtakingly stupid. Jewish people have been persecuted since at least around 550 BC. The persecution has been widespread and has never stopped in two and a half thousand years, culminating in the Holocaust and continuing to what happened on this very day. How you can say that the Jewish people are not victims is contrary to fact and totally unreasonable. Or are you saying that at least twenty-five centuries of persecution and bloodshed doesn't qualify a people as victims?

I'm not falling for that one.

'A resolution passed by the International Association of Genocide Scholars (IAGS) states that Israel's conduct meets the legal definition as laid out in the UN convention on genocide.'

People keep quoting the IAGS as some kind of authority, yet only 129 of their members voted on that particular resolution, out of approximately 500, so less than a third.
More importantly, there don’t seem to be any strict academic or professional prerequisites to become a “genocide scholar”.
According to their own website, “IAGS members are academic scholars, human rights activists, students, museum and memorial professionals, policymakers, educators, anthropologists, independent scholars, sociologists, artists, political scientists, economists, historians, international law scholars, psychologists, and literature and film scholars.”

Actually, I meant to reply to @RedTagAlan with that post and thought I had, which was why I then copied you. Anyway. Doesn't matter.

@Greysowhati know it’s early bit when you can track back to your own statements. I am not the only one to comment.

@TheWomanInTheUnironedMask can I echo this and keep a record please as I do. It’s a reportable offence and there have been many successful prosecutions for repeated offences.

Antisemitism is not ok. Carrying on that tradition on a thread about a terrorist incident directed at Jewish people is unhinged.

Do explain.
Perhaps I'm stupid.

Sadly not. Anders Breivik considered himself Christian.

You said that "Jewish victimhood" is a myth. When it's clear that the Jewish people have suffered horrendously from persecution for millennia.

I get deleted for a post about my parents being afraid yet the raving and gleeful anti semites are not only left to stand when they ought to be permanently banned.

@MNHQ you need to get a grip here.
